Niigata Race 3 - Maiden Race
MARILYN BAROWS (6) is racing well and has registered four minor placings in a row, last time out finishing third over 1200m at Hanshin Dirt after being prominent from the outset. Drawn to go forward. Racing well and long overdue. Top prospects. ECORO SERENA (12) produced a good effort last start when second over 1200m at Nakayama Dirt to make it two minor placings from four starts this preparation. Has a high cruising speed. Will give a great sight. BELLE OCEAN (2) is yet to break through after five starts. Last time out was fifth, beaten 6 lengths, over 1400m at Tokyo Dirt. The blinkers go on. Shapes well and is among the main hopes. MAJIN TAXI (10) was responsible for a better run last start, beaten 7 lengths into fifth over 1300m at Tokyo Dirt. Well placed and can figure in the finish this time.
