GOING:

Race 9 1400m

Track:      

There should be a bit of pressure with Prime Line and Crape Myrtle pressing forward in advance of Mitekure Kono Ashi and Vehement Blast. BRAVE ZEUS (2) has put together back-to-back placings after scoring three back at this track, most recently beaten 2.25 lengths into third over 1400m at this track. Finds a suitable race. CRAPE MYRTLE (8) has been racing in great heart with two top-three finishes on end, the latest a second over 1400m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. SMILE QUARTZ (9) didn't feature last start when seventh over 1500m at this track. The engagement of Tatsuya Nakajima is a positive move. Expect a big run this time. VEHEMENT BLAST (10) missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track when fourth. Worth another chance.
