Race 9 1300m Track: |

|---|---|---|---|---|

Moderate tempo with Kawakita Max leading the way and a few others keeping in touch. KURINO NICE GUY (2) started at $6.40 last time on the back of a win at this track two starts ago but was below his best, finishing eighth over 1600m at this track. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including two wins. Finds a nice race and can get the job done. NAMURA CREPE (8) gets a change of rider and has been freshened up since finishing ninth over 1600m at Morioka Dirt last start. Can bounce back. BANDONEON (1) made progress last time out, finishing 3 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1400m at this track after being prominent at the corner. Likely improver with strong prospects. ELEGANT WINK (4) ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 1300m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Another forward showing is anticipated.
