GOING: G

Race 8 1600m

Track: GOOD     True  

Keen speed battle, with Erz, Big American and Bush Tesoro prominent. RULER OF DIRT (11) returns from a spell of five months and did score first-up when last in work at this track over 1600m. Lines up for the first time for the Kazuo Watanabe stable. Leading contender. TRANSIENT (6) was in a different class last time with a dominant all-the-way win by 3 lengths at this track over 1600m. One of the top chances again. BUSH TESORO (10) saluted at this track two runs ago. Decent effort last time out when eighth over 1600m at this track, beaten 2.5 lengths. Nicely placed to return to winning form. BIG AMERICAN (4) has been in the placings at his last two starts, finishing third last time over 1600m at this track. Should take some beating again.
