GOING:

Race 8 1300m

Track:      

Strong tempo from Kaorichan, Nishino Sunstone and Kurino Novae. Kaorichan, Nishino Sunstone and Kurino Novae can set a strong tempo. KURINO NOVAE (10) turned in a sound effort last time but found a couple better at this track over 1400m, beaten half a length. Is going okay this campaign, recording two wins and three minor placings from seven starts. Leading contender. KITAKARAKITATENSHI (1) produced a good effort when narrowly defeated last time at this track over 1400m. Genuine contender. KOMORI ROSETTA (3) ran below expectations last time at this track, finishing fifth and beaten 2.25 lengths starting at $10. Taking on a better line-up this time but she has the ability to mix it with them. KAORICHAN (4) ran a better race last start, finishing one length away in fourth over 1400m at this track. Shoma Kanayama gets the best out of this three-year-old filly. Well placed and can figure in the finish this time.
