Funabashi Race 4 - Funabashi C3
MEISHO FUSO (4) produced a good run two starts back to finish third but failed to live up to market expectations last time when out of the placings at this track over the same trip. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. TERMINATOR (5) has put together back-to-back placings after scoring three back at Nagoya, most recently beaten 3 lengths into second over 1500m at this track. Will take some beating. SPELL GASSAN (7) resumes in a similar race to her last run five months ago when eighth, beaten 8 lengths. Has to be respected. ALPHA WINDSOR (6) was below his best last time, finishing seventh and beaten 10 lengths over 1500m at Urawa. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time.

Progressing well and a win is on the cards.
