Kawasaki Race 11 - Kawasaki A1
SHIGERU MACH (6) progressed nicely last start to finish a close second over 900m at this track. Tackling a deeper field this time but he is good enough to figure in the finish. FREEDOM (5) returns from a break of 11 weeks. Genuine performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a sixth over 1200m at Funabashi. Goes well when fresh including two wins. One of the leading players. LINO DESTINO (9) improved last time out to score by 0.8 lengths over 900m at this track. Finds a tougher race but this looks well within his grasp. CRI D'AME (4) finished fourth over 1300m at Kochi at his most recent appearance on October 5. Lines up today for the first time for trainer Hiroyuki Mogi. Definite top-three chance.
