Funabashi Race 11

Funabashi B1

Stake: $73,710

HERO SHOW (3) was third last time out over 1600m here after a win at this track at the previous outing. Has a good record at this course and distance, including two wins. Major player. HAGUREGUMO (1) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by 2.5 lengths over 1500m at Urawa. Will take advantage of the good draw and can go well again. TSUKAINO KIZUNA (2) has seven wins and five minor placings from 14 races this campaign. Scored last start by 3 lengths at this track over 1700m. Good enough to take this out. SWIFT RUNNER (10) has been in the money at his last couple of runs, the latest when third over 1600m at Kawasaki. Deserves respect on best figures.

Going well. At the latest run ran on from midfield and won by 3 len at this track March 12 over 1700m defeating Fresco Vainqueur with 56kg at $3.10. The start before that ran on from midfield and won by 1.0 len at Urawa February 24 over 1400m defeating Land Max with 55kg at $2. Nicely drawn and should prove hard to beat.

Racing well. At the latest run sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 10 at this track on March 14 over 1600m, 4 len behind Fumi Valentine with 55kg at $1.30. Before that favourite; won by 3 len at this track February 11 over 1600m defeating Takara Liner with 57kg at $2.40. Draws a nice alley and rates highly.

Useful type. Most recently 5th of 9 at Ohi on March 13 over 1600m, 5 len behind Mesan Durant carrying 57kg at $6.90. The run before that 6th of 13 at Ohi on February 21 over 1800m, 4.5 len behind Il Vento with 57kg at $17.80. Solid prospects and a good alley doesn't hurt.

Useful gelding. Most recently 3rd of 14 at Kawasaki on March 7 over 1600m, 6 len behind Michael Maximus with 57kg at $9.80. The start before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 11 at this track on February 13 over 1600m, 1.3 len behind Idea Milagro with 57kg at $2.90. Sure to be right there at the business end.
