Fukushima Race 10 - Tsurugajo Stakes

Looks a good race for the progressive ECLIPSE RUBAN (4). Was going well before a spell with two straight minor placings. Proven first-up performer back from a break of ten weeks. Should be prominent from the outset. Expecting a bold showing. BUGGY WHIP (3) resumes. Didn't make an impact at his only run last prep on April 18, finishing 12th and beaten 10 lengths over 1800m at Nakayama Dirt. Has switched to the Masahiro Otake yard over the break. Miyabi Muto who has scored on him two times retains the mount. Bold showing expected. DUBAI BLUES (9) comes here off a break of ten weeks. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1800m at Nakayama Dirt. Sure to make his presence felt. OLIVE GREEN (1) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago but was less impressive last time out when fifth over 1800m at Kyoto Dirt, beaten 4.5 lengths. In the mix.
