GOING:

Race 9 1400m

Track:      

Genuine tempo with Famous Glory leading the way. UMETARO (2) scored last time over 1500m at this track, making it two victories from three appearances this time in. In form and rates a key chance again. FAMOUS GLORY (4) is progressing well this preparation. Opened with a fifth at this track two starts back then got the job done by 0.8 lengths last time out after being prominent at the turn over 1400m at this track. Likely to be there at the finish again. COSMONAUT (7) fought on for third last start over 1400m at this track, making it two minor placings in a row. Will need a good ride from Taiga Kurihara off the awkward draw. Likely improver with strong prospects. MARBLE MIMI (5) turned in a modest performance when third last time out over 1500m at this track, beaten 5 lengths, after a win at this track at the previous outing. Nicely placed to figure in the finish.
