GOING: G

Race 9 2000m

Track: GOOD     True  

Moderate tempo with Yuzuruha leading the way. COSMO PANDORA (1) impressed last time out at the second run of the campaign and finished 4 lengths from the winner in third over 2000m at this track. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. YUZURUHA (3) ran below expectations last time after being prominent on the turn at Funabashi, finishing fifth and beaten 5 lengths starting at $6.40. Finds a tougher race but a win is not out of the question. TIME TRAVELER (8) finished fourth last time out over 2000m at this track, beaten 5 lengths. Has a win and three placings at this journey from nine starts. Best figures read very well. KIMITO YUMEOKAKERU (10) won at this track two starts ago but was below her best at a more recent appearance, finishing 11th over 2000m at this track. Likely improver with top-three prospects.
