Kawasaki Race 12 - Kawasaki B3
PETER RISE (6) caught the eye last start over 1400m at this track, coming from the tail and running on strongly to score by a neck. Naoki Machida who has scored on him two times retains the mount. Among the leading chances. ELGAR (1) improved last time out, finishing half a length from the winner in second at the end of 1500m at this track. It doesn't get any easier but on her best form she is one of the chief contenders. BARGELLO (8) drifted well back last start before storming home to score by half a length over 900m at this track. Has a solid record at this circuit. Strong claims on his best form. SARASA CHALLENGE (10) returns from a layoff of eight months. Scored over 1400m at this track to launch the last campaign. Can make her presence felt.
