GOING:

Race 9 1400m

Track:      

Strong tempo assured from Regnum and High Mobility leading the charge. EARTH RISER (1) did a great job to score by 3 lengths over this course and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. It doesn't get any easier but on his best form he is capable of testing his rivals. REGNUM (2) took advantage of the good draw and led for much of the way last start before being run down in the straight, finishing fourth and beaten 5 lengths over 1400m at this track. Minoru Miyagawa who has four wins when partnering stays on. Best form puts him right in this. HIGH MOBILITY (5) was an impressive winner last time over 1400m at this track, leading throughout and putting 2.5 lengths on his rivals. Must be included. COSMO MEIGETSU (3) missed the placings two runs back then didn't do any better last start when 9 lengths away in seventh over 1400m at this track. Seiya Tatara gets the best out of this six-year-old entire. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
