Sapporo Race 2 - Mdn Race
DESERT SPIRIT (1) is a promising type who was in the placings on debut before a fourth last time over 1600m at Niigata. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Will play a major role. TIARAED (5) produced a nice effort on debut in better company last start over 1500m at this track when second, beaten 2.5 lengths. Promising type with improvement to come so she should be in the finish again. MUTCHIRI STYLE (12) faced the starter for the first time last start and was just fair in finishing seventh at this track over 1800m, beaten 5 lengths. Comes into calculations. SUN LEGATO (8) is back from a spell of ten weeks. Debuted with a third, beaten 2.5 lengths, over 1400m at Tokyo at his only appearance to date. Ticks all the right boxes.

Raced two times to date. At very long odds at debut, got back early 8th of 11 at Hanshin on June 7 over 1400m, 8 len behind Biscuit Sand carrying 53.0kg at $158.20. Second-up 8th of 13 at this track on August 8 over 1500m, 3.5 len behind Chika Valiente with 55.0kg at $106.60. Unlikely to finish in the winner's circle.

Last start ran on from midfield; 4th of 13 at this track on August 8 over 1500m, 0.7 len behind Chika Valiente with 55.0kg at $3.20. Has the ability to be in the finish.
