GOING:

Race 8 1400m

Track:      

Pace looks genuine from Dan Stone Serieux, Rikea Penne and Fuji Hook Hand, closely attended by Kiichi Helios. CATHPAN (7) has been low flying recently, lifting strongly to score over 1400m at Mizusawa at the most recent outing to make it two straight victories. Has a strong association with Tatsunori Sugawara who has been in the saddle for her last two wins. Should be in the finish. KIICHI HELIOS (8) produced a good run two starts back to finish second but was below par last time when out of the placings at Mizusawa over the same trip. Can atone. SEI WARRIOR (10) was well in commission last start over 1400m at Mizusawa when fifth. Great chance to atone. RIKEA PENNE (9) ran fourth at her latest appearance over 1400m at Mizusawa. Has definite claims.

Form hard to fault. Last start won by 1.5 len at Mizusawa June 2 over 1400m defeating Rikea Penne carrying 54kg at $5.80. The start before that raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by 1.0 len at this track May 10 over 1400m defeating Miyagi Phoenix with 54kg at $1.80. Has the right credentials.
