GOING: G

Allowance Race 1800m

Track: STANDARD      

Strong pace with Win Grand Bleu pushing forward along with Hawaiian Time from an outside gate. HAWAIIAN TIME (11) is a promising type still in first campaign but off to a great start to career. Put together five wins on the run in easier company before finishing in the minors last time when second at Tokyo. Key chance and expected to go close. SUPERMAN (6) finished 1.2 lengths from the winner in fourth last start over 1800m at Nakayama, an improvement on his fifth at Nakayama the run before. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. SUCCESS PULSE (4) is yet to fill a placing in two runs since resuming from a spell, the latest when sixth over 1800m at Nakayama after he was in the firing line on the bend. Has further improvement to come and is expected to do much better. DELICIEUX REINE (7) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 2400m at Nakayama Dirt, beaten 9 lengths. Strips fitter and should be thereabouts.
