Chukyo Race 2 - Chukyo Maiden
COSMO BLACK (10) remains a maiden after six runs. Was one of the favoured runners last time but could only manage to finish fourth over 1800m at Hanshin Dirt. Overdue and expected to go close. MATENRO HOUR (8) finished second, beaten 5 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1800m at Kyoto Dirt after he was prominent at the corner. Placed to advantage so expect a big run. NORINO DRAGON (13) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 6 lengths when fourth over 1800m at this track two weeks ago after being prominent at the turn. Finds a nice race and can play a significant role. LINTU LAULU (4) resumes from a spell of seven months. Could only manage to finish fourth at the latest run over 2000m at Chukyo. Solid top-three hope.
