Himeji Race 1 - Race 1 - 1400
MEME NISHIKORI (1) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he was never in contention over 1400m at this track, beaten 3.5 lengths into fifth. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. TAIIKUSUWARI (3) returned from a spell two-and-a-half weeks ago when he was in contention on the corner before being beaten 4.5 lengths into sixth over 1400m at this track. Fitter this time. Hard to beat in this suitable race. CHO KANSEI (8) finished third over 1400m at this track two back then missed the frame last time out over 1400m at this track. Well placed here and among the winning hopes. ANNINA (4) made progress last time out, finishing 3 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1400m at this track. Well placed and can figure in the finish again.
