Kasamatsu Race 7

1400

Stake: $8,973

DRAGON KID (2) started this preparation with a win two runs ago but couldn't follow that up last time out when third over 1500m at Nagoya. Soichi Kato gets the best out of this four-year-old entire. Has the class to produce another win. JOLLY MEMORY (5) is a consistent entire who is generally about the money. Found a couple better last start at this track over 1400m. Looks very tough to beat here. SHINTO ROSE (6) showed good speed and led for much of the way before being claimed in the straight and fading to finish fourth over 1600m here last time. Winning rider Seigo Tsukamoto sticks. One of the contenders. CELESTE (3) drifted well back last start before winding up strongly to finish third over 1600m at this track. Must be included.
