GOING:

Race 8 1300m

Track:      

Valiant is expected to lead at a strong tempo. VALIANT (8) is in fine form and hasn't missed the frame in his past seven starts. Last time out he scored over 1400m at this track. The testing material. NOBLE RUN (9) is yet to fill a placing in two runs since resuming from a spell, the latest when 11th over 1600m at Tokyo Dirt. Cherry-ripe now and shapes as a leading player here in easier. GRAND MALL (6) hit the frame two starts ago but ran below par last time when ninth over 1400m at this track. Finds the right race this time and can turn things around. VIADUCT (5) was eighth in a 1400m contest at this track two weeks ago. Capable of featuring prominently.
