GOING:

Race 9 1000m

Track:      

Good pace from Good Time Ask, Excellen Winner and Yamanin Aries. EXCELLEN WINNER (12) built on a nice second two starts back with a win as favourite over 1000m at this track two weeks ago, getting home by 6 lengths. Must raise the bar but this looks well within his grasp. CHOGOLISA (8) saluted here two runs ago. Decent effort last time out when fourth over 1000m at this track, beaten 1.75 lengths. Stepping up a level this time but on her best form she is good enough to take this out. YAMANIN ARIES (1) hasn't won recently but looks close to a breakthrough based on her last start third at this track over 1000m when beaten a head. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Will give backers a great sight. SARASA GO SIGN (4) had been racing well before he was safely held last time out when fifth over 1200m at this track. Can do much better.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run gave a sight but was run down late 3rd of 11 at this track on July 23 over 1000m, head behind Oolong with 55kg at $1.90. Before that made ground from midfield; 2nd of 9 at this track on June 24 over 1000m, 2 len behind Katsuno Twelve with 55kg at $13. An inside alley is a big advantage. Winning prospects.

Third-up today. First-up sat on the pace before fading 7th of 16 at Fukushima Dirt on June 28 over 1150m, 6 len behind Satono Wagner with 55.0kg at $49.40. Last start led to the turn then faded 7th of 15 at Fukushima Dirt on July 5 over 1150m, 5.5 len behind Mogensen with 50.0kg at $183.80. Looks tested despite the low draw.
