GOING:

Race 9 1500m

Track:      

A solid tempo on the cards with Tenku Flower leading the way. EIGHT BEAT LETTER (2) raced on the speed and lifted to score by 1.5 lengths at today's track and distance when resuming from a layoff last time out. Has her share of ability. Hard to beat again in this suitable race. MEISHO KOSHI (4) was unwanted in betting last time but scored by half a length over 900m at this track. Masaya Matsudo who has three wins when partnering stays on. Should be in the finish. RED ROMULUS (8) has not won for a long while. Last raced on March 29 when beaten 6 lengths into sixth at this track over 1400m. Nicely placed to break the run of outs. TENKU FLOWER (3) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 4.5 lengths after being in contention on the corner. Fitter this time will prove harder to beat.

Back from a spell. Finished off last preparation ninth of 11 at this track December 28 over 1400m, 14 len behind War Hammer with 57kg at $29.30. Previously first up; second last of 9 at Himeji January 29 2025 over 1400m, 9 len behind Einosuke carrying 56kg at $6.60. Doesn't appeal.
