Funabashi Race 10 - Race 10 - 1600
ADAM'S APPLE (5) sets the standard after successive Funabashi wins, the latest a B2B3 success by two and a half lengths over BLUE PASSION when sent out favourite. She stays on 51kg, has won two of four at this track and distance, and her overall record of five wins and six placings from 14 starts gives her a very solid winning profile. CRYSTAL CAVE (10) is the clearest danger, coming off back-to-back wins here and showing a sharp turn of foot to beat Green Dial by two and a half lengths in B2 grade. G T PHARAOH (8) resumes with outstanding credentials, including five wins from five at this track and distance and a perfect recent-season record, although he has been away four months. TAISEI VAINQUEUR (4) is more of a place-to-win hope, with recent B2 efforts around CRYSTAL CAVE reading well enough to keep him in the mix.

Returns from a five-week let-up after finishing seventh in a 3yo+ B2B3 over 2200m at Funabashi, beaten just over six lengths by Lilabad after settling a long way back. The start prior at Kawasaki was a better fourth behind Rafale D'Or, albeit at big odds. He is back in trip and has track credentials, but the recent form leaves him with plenty to find.

Returns from a five-week let-up with a strong track-and-distance record to lean on, having won five and placed twice from 13 tries over this course. Recent form is much less convincing, with a sixth behind Hiraboku Laugh It after offering little late and a tenth behind Crystal Cave the run prior. The setup suits better than the figures suggest, but he profiles more as a place chance than a winning threat.

Returns from a lengthy spell after finishing fifth in a small field at Funabashi, beaten three lengths by Gouvernail when near the top of an open market. His previous eighth in a 3yo+ B1 was plain, though the class drop, 54kg and two wins at this track and distance are positives. First-up, he will have to recapture his better Funabashi form to trouble the main chances.

Returns from a five-week let-up after a sound fourth in a 3yo+ B2 at Funabashi, beaten just over four lengths by Hiraboku Laugh It after settling rearward. Two back he made up good late ground behind Crystal Cave, so his recent work has had merit without quite threatening the winner. With three wins and three placings from nine starts in the past 12 months, he is a genuine place contender.

Returns from a five-week let-up in excellent form, having won successive races at Funabashi and staying on 51kg from her latest B2B3 win. She beat Blue Passion by two and a half lengths as favourite after looming up and putting the race away, following a B3 win over Presto Emma. With five wins and six placings from 14 starts overall, she brings the most reliable winning case.

Was safely held at Kawasaki last start over 2000m, finishing seventh behind Rutonwaji and beaten eight and a half lengths at long odds. Her previous Funabashi second to Adam's Apple reads better, but that rival beat her clearly and she then failed to back it up. A return to 1600m helps on past track form, yet she still has to lift sharply to threaten this field.

Returns from a five-week let-up after a solid second in a 3yo+ B2 at Funabashi, beaten three lengths by Hiraboku Laugh It at generous odds. She had led when fourth over 1800m the start prior, so there is recent competitiveness without a winning edge. With four placings but no wins from 11 starts in the past 12 months, she appeals most as a minor-money hope.

Returns from a lengthy spell with an outstanding record, including seven wins from seven starts in the past 12 months. He last beat Ares Elpida by half a length in a 3yo+ B2B3 at Funabashi after being heavily supported, and the run prior was a six-length B3 win over King Of Kazu. Unbeaten in five track-and-distance runs and four from four with Takayuki Yano, he commands serious respect fresh.

Returns from a five-month break after two heavy defeats at Funabashi, finishing last behind Hiraboku Laugh It and beaten a long way after never getting into the race. The start prior was also poor when second last behind Siena No Palio, beaten over 16 lengths. His track-and-distance record and jockey combination are positives, but the recent form is hard to recommend.

Returns from a two-month let-up in winning form after scoring by two and a half lengths in a 3yo+ B2 at Funabashi, showing a sharp turn of foot to beat Green Dial. That followed a narrow B3 win over Prevenance, so he has built a strong local record. With six wins from 10 starts overall and Masashige Honda unbeaten in two rides on him, he is a major winning chance again.
