Kanazawa Race 9 - Race 9 - 1500
CAIRNS (3) led throughout last start to score an effortless 4 lengths win over 1500m at this track. Has a formidable combination with Taiga Kurihara who has been aboard for his last three wins. Among the leading chances. LONG SUCCESSION (7) went fast early over 1400m at this track last time and went on to score by a nose. Finds a tougher race but a win is not out of the question. ALMA INANNA (6) raced close to the lead before clearing out to score an effortless 2.5 lengths win over 1500m at this track last time. Has a terrific record here with three wins and one minor placings from four starts. One of the contenders. TANGENT ARC (8) was well held two back on the JRA circuit then last time in easier company was always well back but got home hard to finish third over 900m at this track. Rates highly on best form and is among the each-way hopes.

Racing well recently. At the latest run favourite; scored a big 4 len win at this track May 26 over 1500m defeating Purpurite carrying 57kg at $1.10. The start before that favourite; won by 5 len at this track May 17 over 1500m defeating Marukan Mayer carrying 57kg at $1.01. Should enjoy a nice run from the inside draw.
