Funabashi Race 9 - Funabashi B2
SUN LYCORIS (4) was a winner over 1200m at this track last time out, dropping out early before coming home with a powerful run to score by 1.5 lengths. In form and will take beating again. MOIRA (3) returned from a break of five months and finished third over this course and distance last time out. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Will prove tough to beat. K'S BLANC (9) raced on the speed and kept going to score by 0.8 lengths last time out. Has her share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. FAST LANE (2) is having his first run since February 12. Has a very good fresh record, scoring two times including one over 1400m at Kasamatsu at the start of last prep. Worth plenty of thought.

Comes off a 36 day let-up. At the latest run 8th of 12 at Ohi on June 30 over 2000m, 15 len behind Cosmo Magallanica carrying 56kg at $50.10. The race before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 11 at Ohi on June 11 over 1800m, 4 len behind Shadow Lupin with 56kg at $37.40. Would rather see in something easier.

Second run back. First-up after five months led but faded 3rd of 11 at this track on July 3 over 1200m, 1.3 len behind K's Blanc with 54kg at $4.40. Previously second-up favourite; won by 2.5 len at Kawasaki January 1 over 1500m defeating Golden Platina carrying 54kg at $1.60. Strips fitter and is an excellent winning chance.

Form hard to fault. Comes off a 37 day let-up. Last start ran on strongly from last on the turn and won by 1.5 len at this track June 29 over 1200m defeating Top Lady with 53kg at $3.50. The race before that 4th of 9 at this track on June 1 over 1200m, 2.5 len behind Odyssey with 54kg at $6.40. Got the job done last time and is a leading hope again.

Form hard to fault. Comes here off a 36-day let-up. At the latest run sat on the pace when 3rd of 11 at Morioka Dirt on June 30 over 1200m, 0.8 len behind J L Bitt with 56kg at $11. The run before that 3rd of 12 at this track on June 4 over 1200m, 3.5 len behind Blumengarten with 56kg at $22.30. Not far away last time. Worth plenty of thought.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run sat on speed throughout when 3rd of 11 at Urawa on July 17 over 1400m, 2.25 len behind Inadahime with 52kg at $26. The run before that 3rd of 12 at this track on July 2 over 1200m, 4 len behind Jet Speed carrying 56kg at $62. Likely to play a big role.
