GOING:

Race 9 1400m

Track:      

Good pace with Anno Domini, Narita Victory and Reina Bonita prominent. ANNO DOMINI (9) met with solid support last start over 1400m at this track when fifth, beaten 3 lengths. F Komaki stays on. Among the leading chances. SOMETIME AGO (6) just missed last time when a neck away in second at this track over 1400m. Genuine contender. ZENDAN SUBASHIRI (7) finished fifth two runs back at Sonoda then improved last time out to score by 1.5 lengths over 1400m at this track. Looks well placed so expect another big run. YAKUJIN MYO O (2) finished fourth last time out over 1400m at this track, beaten 2.5 lengths. Strong top-three chance.
