Niigata Race 2 - Mdn Race
YUINO RYUGI (10) settled worse than midfield in a big line-up then ran on well on debut last start to finish third over 1700m at Fukushima Dirt. Sure to take a lot from that hit-out so he is worth following up. O K ACE (5) showed good early speed last start on debut but felt the pinch late and finished fourth, beaten 5.5 lengths, over 1700m at Fukushima Dirt. Likely improver who is expected to be more resilient this time. SAIL TO GLORY (8) raced once in the maiden preparation when seventh at Tokyo over 1800m back on June 7. Better for that run and can improve sharply this time in work. MONOHON PLAYER (4) faded last time to finish sixth over 1400m at Chukyo after showing good early speed. Can do much better.
