GOING:

Race 8 1400m

Track:      

Without a great deal of early pace evident Meiner Recuerdo may lead the way over Florentem. DIMPLE FACE (5) stuck on well for third here last time after racing on speed. Perfectly placed to finally break through. MEINER RECUERDO (3) has changed stables since finishing near the rear over 1500m at Sapporo and is capable of a much better showing. THERMOPYLAE (4) is still winless but gets his chance in this company and cannot be dismissed if he improves. FLORENTEM (1) was well beaten at Chukyo Dirt last start but finds a thin race and is worth including.
