Funabashi Race 2 - Race 2 - 1200
MORIKEN (1) is a boom two-year-old colt yet to taste defeat in two runs, the most recent win by one length over 1200m at this track. Impossible to knock the form and will go well again. TOP OF TOP (3) produced a nice effort on debut in better company last start over 1000m at this track when second, beaten 3 lengths. Has plenty of upside so he will prove tough to beat. LA MON PANTHER (4) finished 5.5 lengths away in third last time out at Urawa. On a five-day back-up. Nice run last time and should feature. RYUNO KING (5) was unwanted in betting on debut last start but ran a strong race, finishing third and beaten 6 lengths over 1000m at this track. Has upside and must be respected.

Last start won by 1.0 len at this track June 2 over 1200m defeating Happy Face carrying 54kg at $3. This race is well within his grasp.

Most recently ran second last of 7 at Urawa on June 23 over 1400m, 38 len behind Ken Sirius carrying 54kg at $28.60. The race before that sat on the speed throughout before fading 9th of 12 at this track on June 2 over 1200m, 38 len behind Moriken carrying 54kg at $4.90. Prefer to watch at this stage.

At debut, 2nd in a small field at this track on June 4 over 1000m, 3 len behind Operculicarya carrying 54kg at $14.30. Encouraging signs on debut and another big run is likely.

At the latest run rolled along in front before being edged out 3rd of 7 at Urawa on June 23 over 1400m, 5.5 len behind Ken Sirius with 54kg at $11.50. The run before that 5th of 12 at Kawasaki on June 15 over 1400m, 5 len behind Buen Dia carrying 54kg at $19.20. Small field and is not to be underestimated.

Jumped at big odds at debut, got back early 3rd in a small field at this track on June 4 over 1000m, 6 len behind Operculicarya carrying 54kg at $27. Encouraging effort on debut and another big run is on the cards.
