Funabashi Race 2 - Race 2 - 1500

GRIOTTE (3) turned in a fine effort to win by 1.5 lengths at this track and distance last start in a far better run. Meets some better types this time but another win beckons. GOLD STAGE (4) scored an overdue maiden win last time out, getting home by 2.5 lengths over 1200m at this track. Shaping up nicely and he should be in the finish again. MASANO CATTLEYA (2) hasn't been far away since a maiden win five runs back, the latest effort a third over 1500m at this track on June 1. Expected to run well again. LEGEND MASTER (1) made progress last start to finish third over 1600m at this track. Nicely placed to maintain the form.
