Kanazawa Race 8 - Race 8 - 1400

HAKUSAN BIRD (5) was always forward and boxed on to finish second over 1400m at this track last time. Has a solid record here over this journey. Sure to give a brave sight again. VERTEX (6) pushed forward from a wide draw last start and found a position close to the lead before sticking on well to finish second over 1700m at this track. Hard to beat in this suitable race. HAKUSAN PIONEER (2) returned from a spell two weeks ago when he was prominent at the turn before being beaten 5 lengths into fourth over 1400m at this track. Strips fitter and can feature. ONUSHI NANIMONO (4) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell on December 28, finishing sixth and beaten 7 lengths over 1500m at this track. Makes plenty of appeal.

Most recently raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 10 at this track on March 15 over 1400m, 3 len behind Marine Dhun Dhun carrying 57kg at $2.40. The run before that ran last of 14 at Kyoto on January 24 over 1600m, 8 len behind Labeling with 57.0kg at $266.30. Working up to a win. Worth following.
