GOING:

Race 8 1400m

Track:      

Moderate tempo with Meisho Nikoniko leading the way and a few others keeping in touch. IVY BLITZ (11) recorded a strong maiden win over 1200m at this track last time, getting there by 3 lengths. Has a wide gate to overcome but he is sure to go well. MEISHO NIKONIKO (2) faded late last time over 1000m at this track after showing good early speed, eventually finishing fourth. Expected to go close. MANA MAKANA (4) was a determined maiden winner last time out, scoring by a neck over 1200m at this track. Looks well placed and she is right in the mix again. ATSUKI YAMATO (7) didn't do a bad job when second last start over 1400m at this track. That followed a win at Mizusawa the start prior. Finds a suitable race and can figure prominently.
