GOING:

Race 8 850m

Track:      

Nothing to run them along here so the pace looks even at best. ZUAR (1) has been thereabouts without winning, the most recent offering a second at this track over 850m when he was beaten 4 lengths. Looks all set to grab that well-deserved win. RINSHANKAIHO (4) is close to breaking through after three consecutive placings, the latest coming when third over 850m at this track after being in contention all the way. Well placed this line-up and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. MEISHO MIZAO (6) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 850m at this track, beaten 4 lengths into sixth after being in contention on the bend. Finds a nice race and can play a significant role. MAXILLARIA (3) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 850m at this track, beaten 4 lengths into seventh. Nicely placed to find some form.
