Funabashi Race 7 - Funabashi 3Yo
LITTLE HAVANA (4) did well last start but found one better over 1500m at this track, beaten only 0.8 lengths. Well placed to find winning ways. NINGENTE IINA (5) proved too strong two runs ago then last time out was second over 1400m at Urawa. Nicely placed to return to winning form. BABY FACE (3) broke through for his maiden win over 1500m at this track last time, scoring by 4 lengths. Winning rider Tatsuya Yamaguchi sticks and he is definitely worth including. WOKE UP (1) comes here off a break of ten weeks. Scored over 1800m at Ohi to launch the last campaign. Looks a strong top-three prospect.
