Saga Race 10 - Race 10 - 1300
HUSTLER (7) scored last time over 1300m at this track, making it three victories from three appearances this time in. Should camp just off the leaders. Best form puts him right in this. FILLMORE TESORO (4) missed the frame when resuming last start over 1400m at this track but wasn't all that far from the winner. Usually performs well with that run under his belt. Isao Yamaguchi is back on and has a solid record on the five-year-old, including six wins. Fitter and looks sure to play a big role. COASTAL TOWN (2) has been racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid third at this track over 1400m. Has never missed the frame at this venue, including two wins. One of the contenders. HAKUAI RAGAZZA (1) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 2.75 lengths into fifth. Better than recent efforts suggest.
