Race 9 1200m Track: |

|---|---|---|---|---|

Plenty of pace likely from Top Lady, Odyssey and Little Havana battling for the lead from Rocket Home Run. ODYSSEY (5) has scored at his last two starts, most recently by 3 lengths over 1200m at this track. That continued the very strong form this campaign, with two wins from three starts. Can measure up again. TOP LADY (10) finished fourth last start over 1200m at this track after racing on the pace for much of the way. Expected to be in this for a long way. YOTARO (6) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race when he made late ground and finished 1.75 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1200m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. SUN LYCORIS (3) last appeared seven-and-a-half weeks ago over 1400m at Kawasaki when she finished tenth. This is her first run for the Yasuhide Yoneya stable. Can measure up for the new barn.
