Funabashi Race 5 - Race 5 - 1200
MORIKEN (7) Came in 5th last time at Urawa. Capable of a strong comeback and putting a tidy record together so far. Has early speed and positions nicely. Will be competitive. JOLLY JIVE (8) Amongst the placegetters when 2nd last start at Kawasaki and going up in trip. Should muster plenty of early speed. Has run into the placings all attempts this campaign. Respect against this field. HAPPY FACE (3) First up and in the money when 2nd first up last preparation at this track. Good career start. Back to a shorter trip. Respect. STEALTH HUNTER (6) Finished 8th last run here but good career start. Likely to be well placed early. Strong form this campaign winning 2 from 3 starts but back to a shorter distance. Capable of better.

Last start got back early 8th of 10 at Kawasaki on September 10 over 1400m, 16 len behind Vuela Grande carrying 54kg at $55.20. The run before that 3rd of 8 at Kawasaki on August 19 over 1400m, 9 len behind Allegro Vivace carrying 54kg at $20. Impossible to entertain.

Lining up for just third start. At big odds at debut, 5th of 7 at this track on August 6 over 1000m, 10 len behind Tokushi Marilyn carrying 54kg at $33.80. Last start favourite; ran on from midfield and scored a big 9 len win at this track on August 25 over 1200m defeating Palm Street with 54kg at $1.20. Should be right in the finish.

She is resuming after a three months break. Finished off last preparation second last in a small field at this track June 29 over 1500m, 6 len behind Buridaikon with 54kg at $1.70. On debut second in a small field at this track May 8 over 1000m, 1.0 len behind Moriken with 54kg at $1.40. Unlikely to threaten.
