GOING:

Race 9 1500m

Track:      

Ocea Genesis, Noble Harbor and Dempsey Roll will not hold back as they vie for the lead from Shinzen Great and A Shin Jadeite. OCEA GENESIS (2) scored at his most recent appearance, getting home by 1.5 lengths over 920m at this track as favourite. That continued the very strong form this campaign, with four wins and two minor placings from seven outings. Top chance again. SHINZEN GREAT (3) is putting together some solid results. Finished third at this track two starts back then scored by 2 lengths as public elect last time out over 1400m at Kasamatsu. Finds a tougher race but another big run will not surprise. BLUE TENACIOUS (10) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 1.5 lengths from the winner in second over 1400m at this track after being prominent at the corner. Meeting a tougher field but on his best form he is one of the key runners. NOBLE HARBOR (9) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when second over 1500m at this track. Hard to leave out.
