GOING: G

SHINRYOKU SHO 2300m

Track: FIRM      

Classified should lead but there are a few other speedy types who can keep him honest. CLASSIFIED (11) is yet to miss the placings in two starts, including a win on debut. Last appeared when he finished second over 2400m at this track on February 4. Has a high cruising speed. Will give a great sight. GOLD BREATH (5) is a promising colt yet to miss the frame in two starts. First-up since he was successful over 2000m at Kokura on February 11. Should camp just off the leaders. Expected to be in the finish. BROCKEN BOW (1) was too good for a maiden field when resuming last start over 2200m at Chukyo, scoring by 1.75 lengths. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. REALEST (9) finished third at Nakayama two runs back but didn't measure up last time over 2200m at Chukyo, finishing 4.5 lengths back in sixth. Nicely placed to turn things around.
