GOING:

Race 9 1200m

Track:      

Just a moderate pace anticipated. SAKURA KINGLY (8) ran on strongly but just failed to pick up the winner last start over 1200m at this track. Has the talent to take care of this field. BELLAGIO KENSHIRO (3) was thereabouts last time out when third at this track over 1200m, beaten 1.0 lengths. Hard to beat. GLORIOUS ASPEN (9) showed good early dash and led for much of the way over this course and distance last time only to weaken and finish seventh, beaten 6 lengths. Among the chances. CHAMPION HORSE (4) is a six-start maiden who returned last time and finished fifth at this track over 1200m, beaten 6 lengths. Should progress from that last outing and poses a genuine threat.
