GOING:

Race 8 1700m

Track:      

Reasonable tempo with Tomono Kori probably leading but a few others should keep her honest. SHIGERUTSUKIMIZAKE (6) was narrowly beaten last start when second in a small field over 1600m at Kasamatsu. Yet to break through this time in but hasn't been far away, with two placings to his name. Has the right profile to be competitive. TSUKUBA MASAKADO (11) raced below his best last time when seventh over 1700m here. Worth another chance. OKEN TOP (2) travelled in a rearwards position then picked up fairly well in the straight and finished eighth last time out over 1500m at this track two weeks ago. Steps up in journey today and is among the chances. AMORE GREEN (10) got the prize two runs ago but was not as effective last time out when eighth over 1400m at Kasamatsu. Hard to go past on best form.
