Chukyo Race 5 - Maiden Race
BARNABAS (11) is a four-start maiden who is close to a win following two recent minor placings, the latest when third over 2200m at this track. Backmarker who gets home hard. This looks an ideal race. OBRA MAESTRA (3) returned from a spell two weeks ago when he wound up in fourth over 2200m at this track. Strips fitter and can play a major role. SATONO ALTAIR (5) resumes from a spell of 12 weeks. Could only manage to finish sixth at the latest run over 2000m at Nakayama. Strong winning chance on best figures. RI THIR CHONAILL (18) finished second last start over 2000m at Hanshin, beaten a neck. Progressing in good style so anticipating a big run again.
