Funabashi Race 2 - Funabashi 3Yo
NA HIKU (4) went forward last start over 1200m at this track and held on well for second, beaten 1.5 lengths. Drawn to enjoy a nice run just off the speed. Likely improver with strong prospects. SEA OF STARS (9) was a determined maiden winner last time out, scoring by a neck over 1200m at this track. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Shaping up nicely and she is right in the mix again. WILD PEGASUS (2) stalked the pace when resuming at this track and trip last start then worked to the line steadily to finish third. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. One of the main contenders. INITIATE (7) ran a bold race over this journey last time, leading for much of the way before fading out of it late to finish 1.5 lengths away in fourth at this track. Deserves respect.
