Tokyo City Keiba Race 11 - Tokyo City Keiba A2
BENISSIMO (6) clung on to finish third last start over 1600m at this track, beaten one length. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. A SHIN PISTON (4) finished fourth over 1800m at this track when resuming last start after strong market support, beaten only 2 lengths. Likely improver with strong prospects. MESAN DURANT (2) finished 5.5 lengths behind the winner in seventh over 1600m at this track last start after lifting strongly to score two runs back. Strong record with Norifumi Mikamoto aboard, including three wins. Expected to measure up. AMERICAN SEED (9) finished last campaign with a couple of minor placings, the latest over 1600m at this track four-and-a-half months ago. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Should give backers a sight.

Useful entire. At the latest run 7th of 13 at this track on April 15 over 1600m, 5.5 len behind You're On Fleek carrying 57kg at $15.20. The race before that ran on from midfield and won by a head at this track March 13 over 1600m defeating Riko Luger with 57kg at $7.90. Capable of a better run.
