Race 8 1600m Track: GOOD True |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Arms Reign and Sea Serpent to take it up. MATERIAL GIRL (5) made a strong late bid only to just miss when first-up last start over 1800m at Funabashi. Will strip a lot fitter this time around. Finds a tougher race but she has the ability to test this field. SEA SERPENT (2) has had two runs since a break, the latest a ninth over 1600m at this track, beaten 20 lengths. Has never been out of the placings at the third run in so a top-three finish is on the cards. TIME MOMENT (4) is a distance specialist who finished 6 lengths from the winner in fifth last start over 1400m at Ohi, an improvement on his sixth at Urawa the run before. Has started two times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. ARMS REIGN (3) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing fifth at this track over 1600m after being prominent at the turn. Has the talent to produce a better result.
