GOING:

Race 8 1700m

Track:      

De Fideli and Gold Jumper possess good early speed and will set a genuine tempo. LYKEION (1) is back from a spell of three-and-a-half months and does go well when fresh, including a win to launch last campaign over 1600m at Mizusawa. Sure to go well. GOLD JUMPER (2) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when second over 1600m at this track after being in contention all the way. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. A SHIN POLICY (5) was comfortably accounted for when fourth last time out over 1600m at this track, beaten 4 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. DE FIDELI (6) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 1600m at this track. Placed to advantage so anticipating another big run.

Form hard to fault. Last start crossed from a wide gate to settle just off the pace but gave ground when 2nd of 11 at this track on August 18 over 1600m, 2.5 len behind How Far I'll Go with 54kg at $6.10. Before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 12 at this track on August 4 over 1600m, head behind A Shin Policy with 54kg at $7.20. Expected to go well.

Previously second-up eased back early on 9th of 12 at Mizusawa on April 15 over 1400m, 6 len behind Meisho Kotetsu carrying 51kg at $76.30. Unlikely to threaten.

Recent form sound. Most recently 4th of 11 at this track on August 18 over 1600m, 4 len behind How Far I'll Go carrying 54kg at $5.20. The run before that came from midfield and won by a head at this track August 4 over 1600m defeating Gold Jumper with 54kg at $30.60. Likely to prove hard to hold out.
