GOING:

Race 8 1600m

Track:      

Cosmo Finesse should find the front with Allez Claire and Declencher on her heels. SUN KAGUYAHIME (7) travelled in a rearwards position then made a little ground and finished fourth last time out over 1400m at this track two weeks ago. Steps up in distance today. In a suitable race and is sure to run well. ALLEZ CLAIRE (3) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago but missed the frame last time out when fourth over 1400m at this track. Faces an easier assignment and can return to the winners' list. GLAUX (2) finished eighth over 1600m at this track at his most recent appearance on August 26. Comes here with definite top-three claims fresh. DECLENCHER (5) was going okay prior to finishing back in sixth last start over 1600m at this track. Manato Kurosawa has never been out of the frame when aboard this five-year-old entire so he can do much better.
