Funabashi Race 11 - Funabashi B3
ADAM'S APPLE (9) fought on well to finish second last start over 1500m at Urawa, beaten half a length. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. LETEMPS ALLURE (2) showed good pace over 1600m at this track last time and dug deep to score by a neck. Must raise the bar but another big run will not surprise. AMANOHABAKIRI (7) is yet to find the winners' list this time in work but has two placings from three outings this campaign, finishing a nose away in second most recently over 1400m at Urawa. Right in this. SNOW LIGHTNING (8) proved too strong two runs ago but was not as effective last time out when eighth over 1600m at this track, beaten 9 lengths. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time.
