Saga Race 4 - Race 4 - 1300
HO O GIFT (9) scored at this track last time out with one length in reserve at the end of 1400m. Has a decent record at this track with one win and three minor placings. Top chance again. A SHIN L'ALA (4) last appeared five-and-a-half weeks ago over 920m at Nagoya when she finished seventh. This is her first run for the Shinichi Higashi stable. Worth serious consideration. SAKURA MY WAY (5) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago at this track. Safely held last time out when sixth over 1400m at this track, beaten 15 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role. D'S MYTHOLOGY (6) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at this track, finishing third and only 2.25 lengths from the winner at the end of 1400m. Nicely placed to play a big role.
