GOING: H

Race 9 900m

Track: HEAVY      

Sanei Jiro to take charge ahead of Foresighted at a strong tempo. SANEI JIRO (4) was an impressive winner last time, scoring by 3 lengths to make it two on the bounce and be unbeaten at this course and distance. Should be prominent from the outset. Can win again. SATSUKI SKY (2) made progress last time out, finishing 4 lengths from the winner in third at this track and trip. Draws to advantage so expecting another big run. KUROTCHI (7) has not won for a long while. Last raced on June 12 when fifth. This is a nice drop in grade so he is sure to be prominent. LIVE TOPAZ (8) lines up for the first time since April 16. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 1400m at this track. Worth including.
