GOING:

Race 8 1400m

Track:      

Moderate tempo with Cosmo Finesse leading the way and a few others keeping in touch. COSMO FINESSE (2) scored at this track last time out with one length in reserve at the end of 1400m. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including two wins. Kyoka Fukazawa who has scored on her two times retains the mount. Bold showing expected. KOTORINO SAEZURI (6) is a four-start maiden who resumed from a spell last start and finished seventh over 1400m at Hanshin Dirt. Will take a lot from that hit-out and looks a strong chance to break through. RUN IN THE WIND (4) returned from a spell four weeks ago when he was eighth over 1600m at this track. Fitter and back in trip so expect a better run this time. ALL MY TIME (8) is coming off a last-start fifth over 1600m at this track. Has a win and five minor placings from 10 starts at this track and distance. Has definite claims.
