GOING:

Race 8 1700m

Track:      

Moderate tempo with A Shin Zest leading the way and a few others keeping in touch. PADDINGTON BOOTS (1) looks close to a win, finishing in the placings at his last couple of runs including a third most recently over 1400m at this track when beaten 3 lengths. Seigo Tsukamoto who has three wins when partnering stays on. Leading contender. A SHIN ZEST (8) defied a lack of market support last start, scoring by a head over 1400m at this track. Should be poised just off the lead. Leading contender. COASTAL TOWN (5) was sent out favourite last time and scored by 2 lengths at this track. Boasts three wins here. Can measure up again. RETALIATION (11) made progress last time out, finishing 2 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 1400m at Kasamatsu. Well placed to play a part again.
