Kanazawa Race 8 - Race 8 - 1700
HAKUSAN MIRACLE (2) finished fifth last start over 1700m at this track after racing on the pace for much of the way. Expected to be in this for a long way. FRANCORCHAMPS (6) got the prize two runs ago at this track. Couldn't follow that up last time out when third over 1400m at this track, beaten 3 lengths. Yet to miss the placings from eight starts at this circuit. Tatsuya Nakajima gets the best out of this six-year-old entire. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. GRAN PHARAOH (11) was out of the money when resuming two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1700m at this track, beaten 9 lengths into sixth. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. ASTER DIMBULA (1) gave a bold display over this course and distance last start, racing on the speed and boxing on well to finish second and beaten 4 lengths. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run again.
