GOING:

Race 8 1400m

Track:      

Genuine tempo with the speedy Raclette leading the way. RACLETTE (6) last appeared when successful by a neck over 1400m at Kasamatsu 22 months ago, the only time he went to the races last prep. Leading contender. T O NILSSON (5) was in commission last time out but disappointed in finishing fifth over 1500m at this track. Among the top chances in what looks a most suitable race. CURL RUI KO (7) was prominent until they straightened last time but weakened to finish fifth over 1500m at Kanazawa. Worth including here. ZUISHO (3) improved last start but found a couple better over 1400m at this track. Finds a suitable race and is well placed to find the winner's circle.
