Kasamatsu Race 4 - Race 4 - 1400
A SHIN STURM (2) settled well back but hit the line well to finish fourth, beaten 6 lengths, over 1400m here last time. Will prove hard to hold out. KUROTCHI (6) opened this campaign last start with a second, beaten 4 lengths, over 1400m at this track. Looms large. SANDS OF TIME (4) was in contention on the turn and finished third last start at the first run back from a spell over 1400m at this track, beaten 4.5 lengths. Meets some better types this time but he has the ability to test this field. SHERRINGFORD (3) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell on 30/05/2025, finishing fifth and beaten 6 lengths over 1600m at this track. Comes here with definite top-three claims.
