Funabashi Race 4 - Funabashi
BON CHANCE (11) Resuming. Ran 4th last run around here. Expecting improvement here. Will be around the mark at odds. LA VIE EST BELLE (9) Came in 4th last time here. Is capable of a resurgence. Must respect. SEA OF STARS (6) Resumes after a break. Mediocre performance when 5th last start at the track but was a debutant last start. Will be down in distance. Strong each way bet. MINO HOTATE (3) Below expectations when 11th last run here and carrying more weight than last time. Exotics chance.

Comes off a 43 day let-up. Last start 5th of 11 at this track on December 11 over 1200m, 8 len behind Acelerador with 55kg at $152.90. The race before that second last of 12 at this track on November 7 over 1200m, 20 len behind Proud Bloom carrying 55kg at $155.30. Capable of a big finish so don't write him off.
