Funabashi Race 12 - Funabashi A2

GRAVIS (7) resumed last time out and finished second over 1800m at Ohi, beaten 5 lengths. Ideally placed to score. AOI EAGLE (12) boxed on to finish third last start over 1700m at this track, beaten 0.6 lengths as favourite. Has the talent to play a significant role. VICTURA (1) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when a neck away in second after he gave away a big start over 1700m at this track. Has the talent to find the winners' list. WILL SHINE (9) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 2000m at Kawasaki, beaten 5 lengths into fourth. No surprise to see her in the mix.

At the latest run came from midfield and won by a neck at this track March 10 over 1700m defeating Victura with 57kg at $7.60. The run before that led to the turn then faded 5th of 11 at this track on February 13 over 2200m, 3.5 len behind Hraunfossar with 57kg at $3.30. Won last start and is well-placed again.
