Saga Race 8 - Race 8 - 1400
A SHIN TAVERNA (6) Was competitive when 2nd last run at this track. Producing consistent results this campaign. Jockey Isao Yamaguchi is a plus. Will take some beating today. COASTAL TOWN (4) Was competitive when 3rd last run at the track. Yoshiki Yamada is a key booking. Definite claims. VILA ISABEL (3) Narrowly denied victory last run at this track and getting better in recent performances. Could run into the placings. TAISEI GOODMAN (5) Ran 5th last time at the track. Reo Nakayama takes the reins today. Include.

The run before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 11 at this track on January 11 over 1400m, 3.5 len behind Out Raising with 54kg at $38.30.
