Kawasaki Race 9 - Race 9 - 1500
GOLDEN MIC (2) was far too good first up last start when he scored by 5 lengths over 1500m at this track. Fitter for that last hitout and is clearly the one they have to beat. CANAL GALE (7) was sent out favourite last time and scored by 6 lengths over today's trip at this track. Is unbeaten in two starts at this course and distance. Leading player. MEISHO MAHIRO (9) has nine wins and one placing from 16 outings this preparation. Scored last start by 3 lengths at this track over 1500m. Needs to be at her best to beat this field but she is up to the challenge. FIRE WHIP (8) stuck on well last start to finish third over 1600m at this track after showing good early speed. Placed to advantage and can feature in the finish.
