Kochi Race 8 - Race 8 - 1600

ARDE YANO (4) scored by one length last start at this track over 1400m. Has a very good record over today's journey with two wins from three starts and a strong record with Hideya Sahara aboard, including five wins. Sure to play a big role. NAMURA IRIS (2) finished sixth last time out over 1300m at this track two weeks ago. Steps up in journey today. Fitter and a solid winning chance. BEST DECISION (6) was racing well without winning, finishing in the money on two consecutive occasions, before finishing tenth last time out over 1400m at this track. Should camp just off the leaders. Worth forgiving the latest. OCEA TOP GUN (8) ran below expectations last time at this track, finishing fifth. Deserves another chance.
