GOING:

Race 9 1400m

Track:      

Vip Ariel to take charge ahead of Inception at a strong tempo. VIP ARIEL (6) returned to winning form as favourite last start, scoring by 6 lengths over today's journey at this track. Has started two times at this course and distance and is yet to taste defeat. In form and should go well again. SAIMON NOBLE (10) did a great job to score by half a length over today's course and distance last start in a far better run. No reason he cannot salute again. MIKINO ICHIGO (5) settled well back last start and never threatened when sixth over 1200m at Morioka Dirt. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. MEINER HITZE (2) didn't do a bad job when second last start over 1600m at this track. That followed a win at Morioka Dirt the start prior. Best figures measure up so deserves another chance.
