Funabashi Race 6 - Funabashi C1
G T PHARAOH (7) sat on the pace and stuck on well to score by 2.5 lengths at this track and distance last time out to continue his outstanding recent form. Meeting a tougher field but on his best form he is one of the key runners. GREGG (1) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 6 lengths when eighth in a 1400m contest at Urawa two weeks ago. Likely improver with strong prospects. MIDNIGHT HAWK (2) ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 1600m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Finds a suitable race and can build on that solid recent effort. LORD ASTERISK (4) turned in a much better effort last time out to score by half a length over 2000m at Urawa. Finds a suitable race and can feature in the finish.
