Chukyo Race 3 - Maiden Race
RHINO (1) finished out of the money on debut two starts back then was beaten 4.5 lengths when fourth over 2000m at Chukyo three weeks ago after being in contention on the corner. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. CARTESIUS (7) raced below his best last time when sixth over 1900m at this track, beaten 4.5 lengths. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. TAISEI DEXTER (11) started at $6.30 last time and ran below expectations, finishing ninth and beaten 9 lengths at Nakayama Dirt over 1800m. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. SUGAR HIGH (4) showed early speed from a good draw last start then battled on well for third, beaten 1.75 lengths, over 1800m at Nakayama Dirt. Hard to beat in this suitable race.

Recent form sound. Last start held ground to the line 3rd of 16 at Nakayama Dirt on January 11 over 1800m, 1.75 len behind Kazeno Takatoshi with 57.0kg at $7.90. The start before that crossed from a wide gate to settle just off the pace but gave ground when 3rd of 16 at Nakayama Dirt on December 22 over 1800m, 0.9 len behind Dover Bright carrying 56.0kg at $131.30. Hard to beat if he brings his A-game.
