GOING: G

MUKOGAWA TOKUBETSU 1200m

Track: GOOD      

Jogenno Tsuki should lead but there are a few other speedy types who can keep her honest. MARGOT MIST (14) went forward over 1200m at Kyoto last time and held on for third. Will be close to the pace despite the draw. Expected to prove tough to beat. MAXIMUM DRIVE (7) turned things around last start and scored by a nose after being in the firing line on the corner as favourite over 1200m at Fukushima. Stepping up a level this time but on his best form he is one of the key runners. HERO IN CHIEF (3) returned from a spell three weeks ago when he was beaten 2 lengths into fourth over 1200m at Niigata. Fitter so anticipating a better run this time. YAMANIN LESEDI (5) returns after a spell of three-and-a-half months. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1200m at Kokura. Makes plenty of appeal.
