Fukushima Race 3 - Maiden Race
T UP DRIVE (7) finished fourth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1800m at Nakayama Dirt, beaten 2.75 lengths after being in contention on the bend. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. HISAENO OMOKAGE (6) started at $4.30 last time and ran below expectations, finishing fifth and beaten 3.5 lengths at Nakayama Dirt over 1800m after being in contention on the bend. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. TAISEI VAINQUEUR (10) is back after a break of four months. At the last run before the layoff he finished sixth over 1400m at Chukyo Dirt. Leading player on best figures - bold showing expected. POSITIVITY (9) could only manage to finish fifth, beaten 11 lengths, at his latest appearance over 1800m at Chukyo Dirt after he gave away a big start. Solid top-three chance on his best figures.
