Funabashi Race 4

Funabashi 2Yo

Stake: $55,784

BRIGHT FLASH (3) wasted no time getting off the mark as favourite on debut over 1000m at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago. Promising type who can measure up again. ROYAL JODHANA (7) has been in the placings at his last two starts, finishing second last time when he was always up in the leading division over 1400m at Urawa. Looks well placed so expect another big run. MANA KOA (2) was safely held when second last time out over 1200m at this track, beaten 6 lengths after being prominent at the turn. That followed a win at Monbetsu at the previous outing. Must raise the bar but another win is not out of the question. ADAMAS NERO (6) proved too strong two runs ago but was not as effective last time out when eighth over 1200m at this track, beaten 15 lengths. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time.

Comments

Last start raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 8 at Urawa on November 19 over 800m, 5 len behind Asagao with 54kg at $7.80. The run before that couldn't go on with it; second last of 7 at this track on October 28 over 1200m, 9 len behind Brezza Dream carrying 54kg at $61.70. Looks tested again.

Useful type. Last start led but faded 2nd of 10 at this track on November 27 over 1200m, 6 len behind Sorgente Po carrying 54kg at $5.60. The start before that won by 0.5 len at Monbetsu October 16 over 1000m defeating A Shin Cattleya carrying 55kg at $5.50. Hard to beat if she brings her A-game.

Going well. Last start rolled along in front then was edged out late 2nd of 9 at Urawa on November 19 over 1400m, nose behind Yoruno Cho carrying 55kg at $9.10. The race before that set the pace for much of the race 3rd of 8 at this track on October 29 over 1200m, 3.5 len behind Maximum Power with 55kg at $58.20. Winning chance after a narrow defeat last start.
