Kanazawa Race 8

1900

Prize Money: $38,014

GLIESE (1) has put together a couple of wins at this track, the latest on June 9 over 2000m when she got home by 8 lengths. Winning rider Satoshi Yonekura retains the mount. Ideally placed and is sure to take plenty of stopping again. STAR CANDY (7) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing third last time out over 1500m at this track. Has the ability to play a significant role. PIKAPIKA PIROKO (9) turned things around last start and got the job done by 5 lengths after being in contention on the corner as public elect over 1500m at this track. Meets some better types this time but another big run is on the cards. PASSION BEAT (8) improved last start but found one better over 1500m at this track. May play a role.
