Kasamatsu Race 8 - Race 8 - 1580
PURPOSE POINT (5) was quickly into stride over 800m at this track last time and defied all challengers to score by 2 lengths. A repeat of the latest can see him take a hand in the finish. WISTERIA BELL (7) showed good early dash last time out and led for most of the way before being claimed and finishing just 0.8 lengths away in second over 1400m at this track. Expected to measure up again. ANGELITO (1) is back after a break of four months. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 1400m at this track. Comes here with definite top-three claims. COSMO SUNBRIGHT (3) hasn't been able to break through for a while, the latest effort a seventh over 1400m at this track. Good enough on her day and can fill a top-three spot.

Last start favourite; won by 2 len at this track April 16 over 800m defeating Festive Free carrying 57kg at $1.40. Before that raced behind the speed prior to fading 7th of 9 at this track on March 30 over 1400m, 8 len behind Corniche carrying 57kg at $3.90. Got the job done last time and is a leading hope again.

Second-up. First-up after five months sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 9 at this track on April 28 over 1400m, 7 len behind G T Paris carrying 57kg at $11.90. Previously second-up 3rd of 10 at Kochi on May 31 over 1300m, 3.5 len behind Miracle Dream carrying 57kg at $3.70. Should progress from that first-up run.
