Funabashi Race 3 - Race 3 - 1500

MOND SPIEGEL (5) missed the placings when resuming two runs back then was always well out of his ground last start when 14th over 2000m at Fukushima. Has the talent to take this out in an easier assignment. POD SHANK (8) has scored at his last three starts, most recently by 5 lengths over 1200m at this track as favourite. That continued the very strong form this campaign, with three wins from four starts. Big chance once again. SKOLEBROD (2) finished out of the money two starts back then was fourth in a 1500m contest at this track three weeks ago after being in the firing line on the corner. Likely improver with strong prospects. YAGIRI PEARL (7) finished 5 lengths away in seventh at her last appearance over 1200m at this track on August 3. Among the better chances in what looks a nice race.

Form hard to fault. Most recently favourite; scored a big 5 len win at this track on August 4 over 1200m defeating Mori Invictus carrying 56kg at $1.20. The start before that favourite; won by 5 len at Nagoya on June 22 over 1400m defeating Proud Bluebell carrying 57kg at $1.20. Expected to go well.
