GOING:

Race 9 1580m

Track:      

Reasonable tempo with a few going forward, headed by Engelspiel. KING OF WORLD (7) was on a winning run of two races but last time out missed the frame when eighth over 1400m at this track. Can find winning form again. HOME RUN BATTER (3) was below his best last time, finishing seventh over 1400m at this track. The engagement of Tsutsui Yusuke is noteworthy. Beautifully placed and is sure to be there at the finish. RING BOY (2) showed little early dash last start but found the line strongly to get up for third, beaten 3 lengths, over this course and distance. Tough to stop again. SEVEN THREE ROSE (6) drifted back over 1580m here last time before winding up late to finish fourth, beaten 1.2 lengths. Will be putting in the big strides late and can feature.

At the latest run 6th of 12 at this track on May 27 over 1400m, 5.5 len behind Nihonpiro Reach with 55kg at $12.50. The start before that failed to make an impression; second last of 7 at this track on April 28 over 1580m, 7 len behind Schrodinger with 55kg at $3.20. Better than that recent plain performance suggests.
