Kawasaki Race 11 - Race 11 - 1400
STAR GRIP (11) had been racing well with two consecutive placings before last start managing only sixth over 1500m at this track. Record at this journey is strong with three wins from nine runs and is sure to go well. ORWELL (8) started this preparation with a win two runs ago. Less impressive last time out when seventh over 1500m at this track, beaten 3 lengths after being in contention on the bend. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. ELEPHANT RUN (2) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1600m at this track, beaten 6 lengths into fourth. Meeting a tougher field but on his best form he is right in contention. ORIKO D'ELEGANCE (5) made progress last start to finish second over 1600m at this track. No surprise to see her in contention.

At the latest run 3rd of 9 at this track on August 18 over 1600m, 4 len behind Opera Plage with 56kg at $9. The start before that crossed from a wide gate to lead but couldn't hold on when 5th of 13 at this track on July 30 over 1600m, 5.5 len behind Dozan One with 56kg at $18.80. Definite winning chance. Keep safe.

Thereabouts last time and rates highly.
