September 25, 2017 (Monday)

<At Nakayama Racecourse>

Blizzard (AUS, G6, chestnut)

“He’s had no trouble with the traveling so far. I think it’ll only take him a day or two to settle down here. He’s eating well and his condition was very good during the few days he was in quarantine.

“This will be his second start this season – his last start, where he was second, was a very good warmup for this race.

“Tomorrow, he will only do some easy work just to settle down, and (jockey Gerald) Mosse will gallop him on Wednesday when our trainer is here. The rest of his training menu will depend on his weight.”

(comments taken from assistant trainer, Ho Yin Wong)
