GOING:

Race 9 1500m

Track:      

A strong tempo assured with Balder Brain and Andare leading the charge. NOBUNO CAT (3) turned in a fine effort to score by a neck at this track and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. Nicely placed to take this out. ANDARE (6) got the prize two runs ago at this track. Less impressive last time out when fifth after being in contention on the turn. Finds a suitable race and can figure in the finish. DERMA GOMORY (2) ran below her best last start. Form here at the trip is sound with four wins and three minor placings from nine runs. One to consider. BALDER BRAIN (4) has been in the placings at his last two starts, finishing second last time over 1400m at this track. Well placed and will be thereabouts again.

Last start 6th of 8 at Kochi on June 9 over 1300m, 9 len behind Sano Laki with 56kg at $113.10. Before that came home strongly from last on the turn; 3rd of 7 at Kochi on May 26 over 1400m, 6 len behind Figlio Allegro carrying 56kg at $113.10. Will jump at pretty long odds and deservedly so.

Useful mare. Most recently crossed from a wide gate to settle just off the pace but gave ground when 6th of 11 at this track on June 18 over 1500m, 6 len behind Juju June with 54kg at $18.80. The race before that held ground to the line 3rd of 7 at this track on May 27 over 1500m, 7 len behind Mi Hija Divina carrying 54kg at $3.90. Better than that recent moderate performance suggests.
