HATSUSAKI SHO 1800m Track: |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Strong tempo with Conduire and Or Noir leading from Comme Une Plume and Black Ruby. CONDUIRE (7) has been in the money at both runs this prep, the latest when beaten 0.9 lengths into third over 2000m at this track. Overdue and gets her chance to break through. BLACK RUBY (5) is yet to fill a placing in two runs since resuming from a spell, the latest when 12th over 1600m at Tokyo. Won only try course and distance. Expected to improve sharply. OR NOIR (10) was in contention on the bend and finished second last time over 2000m at this track, beaten 0.8 lengths. Hard to beat in this suitable race. COMME UNE PLUME (8) finished 5.5 lengths adrift in eighth last time over 1600m at Tokyo in a disappointing performance. Fitter for two runs back and unbeaten here from two tries. Open to improvement and should be about the money.
