GOING: G

Race 8 1400m

Track: Good      

Crazy Dis should lead but there are a few other speedy types who can keep him honest. POTENZA (4) finished 1.5 lengths from the winner in fourth last start after being in contention on the corner over 1500m at Urawa, an improvement on his fifth at this track the run before. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. HARMONY REGULUS (12) turned in a fine effort to win by 5 lengths at today's course and distance last start in a much improved run. Goes up a rung or two but he is worth serious consideration. TAISEI ARMET (2) was responsible for a solid effort last time out when second at Urawa over 1500m, beaten one length. Drawn ideally and is a winning hope. CRETEIL (10) could only manage sixth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1400m at Urawa, beaten 4.5 lengths. Suitably placed so he can be prominent again.
