Fukushima Race 3 - Mdn Race
Looks a race in two. WONDER BLITZ (8) is close to a win on the back of three minor placings from as many starts, the latest a narrow defeat over 2100m at Tokyo Dirt when he was always up in the leading division. Can take that next step and earn that elusive win. INTO THE WIND (12) made an encouraging debut last time out, finishing half a length from the winner in second over 1600m at Tokyo Dirt. Big chance to topple the favourite based on that effort. KITANO DON CARLO (15) finished third last time over 1600m at Tokyo Dirt, beaten 4 lengths. Going well enough to find the frame again. SANDSTURM (7) is a three-year-old filly on debut by Nadal from Maestrale who has been a wonderful producer including Le Vent Se Leve at G1 level. Promising type who cannot be left out of calculations.
