GOING:

Race 8 2000m

Track:      

Cloche Noire and Brighten Sort to bowl along in front. CLOCHE NOIRE (4) has been in the market at her last couple of runs but failed to threaten, the latest effort a modest fifth at Funabashi over 1800m. The testing material on her best form. PARMENIDES (3) made progress last time out, finishing 3 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 2000m at Kawasaki. Tackling a deeper field this time but he is up to the task. EXPLORE (8) finished 14 lengths adrift in 12th last time at this track in a disappointing performance. Meeting a deeper field this time but he deserves another chance. YAMABUKI (10) spotted them a big start last time out and could only manage to finish tenth over 2000m at this track. Leading prospect on best form.
