Chukyo Race 9 - Kikyo Stakes
WILL SURVIVE (2) was less than a length from the winner in second at Niigata on debut before showing the benefit of that race experience when an impressive winner over 1400m at this track last start. Capable of further improvement and can go on with the job. BLUE LACE (4) impressed when successful on debut over 1200m at Kokura eight weeks ago. Promising type who can go back-to-back. MEISHO TSUYOKI (1) recorded a strong maiden win over 1600m at this track last time, getting there by 2 lengths. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Shaping up nicely and he is right in the mix again. BLUE SUNSET (5) is a last-start winner four weeks ago, scoring by 3.5 lengths over 1200m at this track. Everything points to another big run.
