TONEGAWA TOKUBETSU 1800m Track: |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Expecting a genuine tempo from Cam Ranh Bay booting up along the inside with Dubai Blues and Sorrel Bullet showing speed. SORREL BULLET (12) was prominent from the outset when second over 1800m at this track last time out. Form here at this trip is sound. Winning rider Christophe Lemaire stays aboard. Expecting a bold showing. DUBAI BLUES (3) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when third over 1800m at this track. Tackling a deeper field this time but he is up to the task. HORATIO (5) turned in a fine effort to win by 1.3 lengths at this track and distance when first-up from a break last start. It doesn't get any easier but on his best form he is good enough to cope. PURNA CHANDRA (14) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1900m at Chukyo Dirt, beaten 10 lengths. Fitter so a likely improver.
