GOING:

HIRASAN TOKUBETSU 2200m

Track:      

Reasonable tempo with Roll The Dice probably leading but a few others should keep him honest. PIC DES MOUCHES (2) was well in commission when resuming last start over 2500m at Nakayama when third, beaten 2 lengths. Improver with winning prospects. Can bounce back. ASKCOMMENTALLEZVOU (8) finished second two runs back at this track then improved last time out to score by 2.5 lengths as public elect over 2000m at Hanshin. Yutaka Take scored on him last time and retains the mount. Can go on with it. NEW CREDO (11) won when resuming two starts ago but was less effective last time out when 3.5 lengths from the winner in seventh over 2200m at Chukyo. Not far away last time. Backmarker who keeps coming. Capable of a big run. OMEGA NAVIGATOR (1) has not appeared since he finished third over 2400m at this track on January 31. Has found the right race and is worth including.

Most recently sat behind the speed prior to fading second last of 8 at Hanshin on April 11 over 2400m, 10 len behind Firm Twenty carrying 58.0kg at $75.90. Before that couldn't go on with it; second last of 9 at Hanshin on March 1 over 2200m, 8 len behind Danon Joker carrying 58.0kg at $282. Hard to recommend.
