GOING:

Race 9 1400m

Track:      

Expecting a strong gallop with Cresco Thunder and Taiheino Yo taking up the running over Satono Dolce. CRESCO THUNDER (6) won his maiden over this course and distance last start, getting the verdict by 30 lengths. Shaping up nicely and he looks certain to measure up again. TAIHEINO YO (7) was safely held on the JRA circuit two back then appreciated the easier company last time over 1400m at this track, leading throughout to score by 5 lengths. In winning form and expected to run well again. TROIS CHARME (2) has been racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid second at this track over 1400m. Has a superb record here at the journey with two wins and a 100% top-three strike rate. Should be right in this. KANEMITSU ACE (5) finished second last time over 1400m at this track. Placed to advantage and worth including.
