GOING:

Race 9 1800m

Track:      

Narusa and Peace Warrior have the pace to take up the running at a solid tempo. BULKHEAD (12) led throughout last start to score an effortless 7 lengths win over 1500m at this track. Sure to run well again. NON LIMITACION (9) wound up strongly last time out to finish one length adrift in second over 1800m at this track. Can measure up. KOJIN KINKI (7) made progress last time out, finishing 3 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 1800m at this track. Taking on a better field but he is good enough to take this out. TAKAO SMILE (5) produced a better run last start, beaten 1.4 lengths into fourth over 1800m at this track. Has his share of ability and is a top-three prospect.
