GOING:

Race 9 1200m

Track:      

Cosmo Tarragon, Positive Spin and Ikizama to take up the running at a decent tempo. FRAMMENTA (11) finished fifth two runs back at Mizusawa then improved last time out to score by 1.5 lengths after being in the firing line on the turn over 850m at Mizusawa. Finds a suitable race and can go on to make it two in a row. LUAR (8) doesn't win very often but ran a strong race last time out over 850m at Mizusawa, finishing second and beaten a head after being in contention on the bend. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. IKIZAMA (7) ran below expectations last time after being prominent on the bend at Mizusawa, finishing seventh and beaten 4 lengths starting at $2.30. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. VANDERBILT (4) pushed forward from a wide draw last start and found a position close to the lead before sticking on well to finish third over 850m at Mizusawa. Ready to go a couple better.
