GOING:

Allowance Race 1200m

Track: FIRM      

Fine Summer Day, Hishi Islay and Samuhara can set the pace. HISHI ISLAY (2) launched his career with a win two runs ago. Couldn't follow that up last time out when fifth over 1600m at this track, beaten 4 lengths after being in the firing line on the corner. Won't find this as tough so he is a leading player. LONDON ORBITAL (9) is racing well, scoring two back at Fukushima before finishing 2.5 lengths from the winner in second last time over 1200m at this track. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Sure to be in the finish. FINE SUMMER DAY (1) impressed when successful on debut over 1400m at Tokyo three-and-a-half months ago and has not been produced since. Has loads of upside and is among the chances again. CHARTRES (7) is back from a spell of nine weeks. Closed last prep as a winner, taking out a 1400m contest at Tokyo by 1.75 lengths. Should be involved in the finish.
