Niigata Race 8 - Dahlia Sho
Tricky race with a lot of promising types coming together. HIGHER MARK (3) impressed when successful on debut over 1200m at Hakodate four weeks ago. Likely improver who should run well again. TAISEI VOGUE (1) did a good job to land the prize on debut over 1400m at Hanshin seven weeks ago. Will come on following that run and looks tough to hold out again. LAND STAR (5) impressed when successful on debut over 1400m at Tokyo seven weeks ago. Has upside and is among the chances again. YAMAME RISE (7) won on debut last time out five weeks ago over 1200m at Fukushima, getting home by 1.5 lengths. Winning claims on that effort.

Freshened since getting off the mark on debut; won by a neck at Hanshin June 21 over 1400m defeating Jay Streak with 55.0kg at $3. Drawn perfectly and she is a top chance.
