GOING:

Race 8 1750m

Track:      

Solid tempo with S C Alber leading from Mitono Dream and Kastrom Gale. S C ALBER (10) produced a good effort last start over this trip at this track, scoring by 4 lengths. Form here strong boasting 10 wins from 16 starts. One of the major players. BORNEO (5) turned in a decent effort last start to finish second over 1750m at this track after being in the firing line on the bend. Steps up a level but he is up to the task. KASHINO CAMPIONE (2) started at $9 last time and ran below expectations, finishing fifth and beaten 10 lengths at this track over 1750m. Yoshiki Yamada gets the best out of this four-year-old entire. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he has the ability to mix it with them. MITONO DREAM (3) finished second last start over 1400m at this track when she did her best work late, beaten 4 lengths. Should be cherry-ripe. Must be respected.
