GOING:

Race 9 1000m

Track:      

Expecting Meisho Karakusa to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sprint course. COMBAT IZUMO (1) was an impressive maiden winner last time out, scoring by 1.5 lengths over 1000m at this track. Has the inside gate and she can go on with it. MEISHO KARAKUSA (7) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing second last time out over 1000m at this track. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot salute. MORNING AJISAI (5) finished second two runs back at this track then improved last time out to score by half a length over 1000m at this track. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role. HAPPY PINK (11) finished seventh over 1200m at this track two weeks ago. Suitably placed so can turn things around.
