GOING:

Race 8 850m

Track:      

Strong tempo with Farrokh and Massilia leading the way over Earth Hour. MAKOTO DAITOREN (5) made it five minor placings in a row last start when second over 850m at this track. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. KATCHAO (1) is building up to a win, most recently finishing 3 lengths from the winner in third over 850m at this track. Worth including. SAMMARU CEREZO (6) turned things around last start and got the job done by 0.8 lengths over 850m at this track. Likely to be there at the finish again. EARTH HOUR (7) was beaten 4.5 lengths into fourth over 850m at this track last time out. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
