GOING:

Race 9 1500m

Track:      

Genuine tempo with the speedy Earl Of Kent leading the way. EARL OF KENT (9) was in a different class last time with a dominant all-the-way win at this track over 1400m. Has a strong record here, including four wins. Right in this. RABION AZUL (11) doesn't win out of turn but ran a nice race last time, finishing third and beaten 1.5 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. MEIKUN (10) is back after a break of eight months. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1000m at Monbetsu. Worth thought. MOZU MASANYAN (4) returned from a spell two weeks ago when seventh here. Fitter this time and deserves safe keeping in the placings.
