GOING:

Race 9 1400m

Track:      

Solid tempo anticipated with Kaiser Blitz and Al Malikat Saba leading the way. KAISER BLITZ (7) returns from a break of four months. Consistent performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a tenth over 1300m at this track. Rates highly and a bold showing is expected. REAL CITY (4) turned in a decent effort last start to finish second over 1600m at this track. Looks well placed so expect another big run. ARDE TSUYOSHI (1) was in the money two starts back at this track but couldn't back it up last time when seventh at this track over 1600m. Nicely placed to turn things around. CONJUNCTION (8) was well in commission last time out but could only manage to finish sixth over 1600m at this track in a disappointing performance. Has started two times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time.
