Niigata Race 3 - Mdn Race
EX MACHINA (5) has raced twice. Was third on debut then clocked-in 6 lengths from the winner in fourth last time out over 2000m at this track. Backmarker who keeps coming. Big finish last time and looks tough to hold out. TAISEI SOARING (4) faced the starter for the first time and finished fifth last start at Fukushima over 2000m, beaten 2.75 lengths. Can improve sharply and is expected to feature. ICARUS TESORO (3) started at big odds on debut last start when fourth, beaten 4 lengths, over 1800m at this track. Improver with a solid top-three chance. WINNING RAY (6) ended up 7 lengths behind the winner in eighth on debut last start over 1800m at Fukushima. Plenty of scope for improvement. Expected to do more.

Was at a huge quote at debut, sat behind the speed prior to fading 9th of 12 at this track on August 15 over 1800m, 8 len behind Piko Berry carrying 55.0kg at $254.80. Didn't quite do enough on debut to raise the hopes.
