GOING: G

Race 8 1200m

Track: GOOD      

Plenty of speed from Last Shot and Sprit. WAKE UP PEOPLE (8) scored two runs back then sat on the pace last time when 3.5 lengths away in fourth over 1500m at this track. Should camp just off the leaders. Will prove tough to beat. LAST SHOT (5) continued the great form last start, scoring by 0.8 lengths at this track over today's trip. Leading player. AMMIRAZIONE (3) is back after a break of three months. Went close to a maiden win before the layoff, finishing third at her latest appearance over 1200m at this track. Has ability and is a leading player. PRISMATICA (6) is returning from a spell of four-and-a-half months. Finished fifth at Ohi over 1200m at the first run last prep. Now with a new trainer Takeshi Hasegawa. Should be winning races.
