GOING:

Race 8 1400m

Track:      

Genuine tempo with Lien Solide leading the way. LUX COLOGNE (1) is yet to break through after seven career starts. Managed to find the placings at Kokura two starts back before finishing rearward over 1200m at Sapporo last start. Big chance to break through. NARITA BONNY (10) is yet to break through in eight runs. Finished towards the tail at her last appearance over 1200m at Chukyo on August 2 after she gave away a big start. Rates highly in this field and can turn things around. ZINGER (5) has been out of the frame at his last couple of runs, last time over 1400m at Chukyo. Finds an easier assignment and is a winning hope. CAMPBELL (7) looks close to a win, finishing in the placings at her last couple of runs including a third most recently here when beaten 1.3 lengths. Big chance to break through.
