Niigata Race 2 - Maiden Race
SEIUN YAOYOROZU (4) turned in a nice effort last time out at the second run of the campaign and finished just 1.5 lengths from the winner in second over 1150m at Fukushima Dirt after being in the firing line on the bend. Racing well and close to a win. Top prospects. ECORO GROW (10) is building towards his maiden success, the latest effort a solid third over 1200m at Nakayama Dirt, beaten 2.5 lengths after being in the firing line on the turn. Likely improver with strong prospects. VESEL (3) is back from a spell of four-and-a-half months. Debuted with a second, beaten 7 lengths, over 1200m at Nakayama Dirt at his only appearance to date. One of the better chances. DREAM GASSAN (5) finished seventh two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1150m at Fukushima Dirt, beaten 4 lengths. Nicely placed to find winning ways.
