Funabashi Race 3 - Race 3 - 1500
JARDIN DU ROI (11) has recently been thereabouts without winning, the latest effort a third over 1200m at this track. Another big run is likely. BEQUEST (5) turned in a better effort to finish third last start, beaten 1.1 lengths over 1300m at Urawa. Backmarker who gets home hard. Best form puts him right in this. DIVINE WILL (2) turned in a decent effort last start to finish second over 1400m at Kawasaki. Nicely placed to play a pivotal role. TSUKUBA APPLAUSE (4) led early and was still in the firing line on the turn before tiring to finish fourth over 1200m at this track last time out. Rates highly in this field and can turn things around.

Last start 12th of 14 at Kawasaki on May 13 over 1400m, 10 len behind Riko Stechkina carrying 56kg at $7.10. Before that 10th of 12 at Kawasaki on April 10 over 1400m, 16 len behind Ino carrying 56kg at $12.40. Won't spend a cent in the run from the inside draw. Good each-way hope.

Most recently made ground from midfield; 2nd of 9 at Kawasaki on May 12 over 1400m, 3 len behind Silver Ginji carrying 54kg at $34.10. The run before that settled back and ran on when 7th of 12 at Kawasaki on April 9 over 1400m, 6 len behind Riko Stechkina carrying 54kg at $152.90. Will prove tough to stave off.

Most recently couldn't go on with it; ran last of 13 at this track on May 5 over 1500m, 16 len behind Jesco with 51kg at $172.80. The start before that sat on the pace before fading 7th of 12 at Kawasaki on April 7 over 1400m, 12 len behind Narino Dream carrying 54kg at $19.70. Can't see her troubling these.
