A solid tempo on the cards with Gran Raisins Dores taking charge. GRAN RAISINS DORES (2) was an emphatic winner last time over 1400m at this track with today's rider Taichi Nagamori engaged. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Among the leading chances. NEO BRAVE (3) showed little early speed then came with a powerful run to finish third last time out over 1600m at this track. Should run on into the finish again. EVERYONE BLACK (5) is back at the races for the first time since December 6. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1400m at this track. Makes plenty of appeal. FREE HORSE PARK (6) was below his best last time, finishing ninth and beaten 7 lengths over 1400m at this track. Nicely placed to make amends.
