Funabashi Race 4 - Funabashi C2
BEL VIVANT (9) did a great job to score by 6 lengths over this course and distance last time out to make it two-for-two this prep. Hard to knock and there is no reason she cannot salute again. HAKUSHIN DANCE (8) showed good early dash and led throughout to score by half a length last time out over 1400m at Urawa. Yoshimi Nakashima sticks. Bold showing expected. CUISINIERE (2) was in contention on the bend and finished second last time over 1500m at this track when resuming from a spell, beaten 2 lengths. Likely improver with good prospects. KEIAI WHAKAPONO (5) scored last start at this track to make it two wins and two placings from four starts this campaign. Has a superb record here. Among the better hopes.
