GOING:

Race 9 1400m

Track:      

King Moon to take up the running with Accel Holy and Viru close at hand. ACCEL HOLY (2) stuck on well last start to finish second over 1300m at this track after showing good early speed. Placed to advantage so expect a big run. VIRU (5) was prominent into the straight last time but couldn't go on with it and finished fourth over 1300m at this track. Rates highly in this field and can turn things around. AL JAHILI (10) was never in contention when resuming last start over 2000m at Kokura, finishing ninth. Can make his presence felt. CAPO DI TUTTI CAPI (7) was safely held on the JRA circuit two back then appreciated the easier company last time when second over 1300m at this track. Well-placed and can make the finish again.
