Funabashi Race 1 - Race 1 - 1200
TOKEN GIN FIZZ (8) Placed 3rd last start at Urawa and promising career start. Shows good early pace. Exhibiting good form since coming back from a break. In the mix. KUNINO ASCOT (11) Tidy run when 2nd last time at the track and was a debutant last start. The wide draw shouldn't be a problem with plenty of early speed. Will be competitive. COPANO HAKUSHU (5) Finished 7th last time at this venue and will be dropping in distance. Can win this. SAMAROLI (3) Tidy run when 2nd last time at the track and was on debut last time. Displays good tactical speed. Ticks plenty of boxes and looks like value .

Led into the lane at Urawa last start but weakened badly, finishing tenth and beaten over 11 lengths by Maple Ship at long odds. The start prior was no better, ending last at Urawa behind Wild Uluru after fading late. She is third-up and race fit, but has not raced at around 1200m before and her current form gives little confidence against sharper rivals.

Returns from a five-week freshening after being sent out favourite at this track and finishing seventh, beaten over 11 lengths by Fly The Flag, without producing a serious challenge. His debut second to True Target at this venue was more encouraging, with market respect again evident. The 1200m is new, but he is race fit third-up and has enough exposed quality to bounce back strongly.

Returns from a five-week freshening after a promising debut second at this track over 1000m, where she led and was run down late by Captain Queen, beaten four lengths. The move to 1200m is the main unknown, but that first run rated well against this field and she has the top local trainer-jockey combination. With natural improvement, she sets the standard.

Returns from a four-month break after placing on debut at this track over 1000m, beaten seven lengths by Invaincu in a small field. She was prominent and close enough at the turn, but lacked the dash to threaten the winner. The race experience is useful and Kenji Okamura is a positive booking, though she profiles more as a place chance than a strong winning hope.

Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing seventh at this track, beaten over 11 lengths by Fleur Magique despite being near the top of betting. She was also well held here two back, so the current campaign form is not compelling. The counterpoint is her record of two placings from four starts and a prior 1200m placing, which keeps her in the minor-money discussion.

Returns from a four-month break after finishing third at this track, beaten just over three lengths by Mandela Effect at long odds while safely held. Her previous fourth here had more appeal, as she made up ground and caught the eye late. She carries only 51kg again and has a placing with this jockey, so she is a realistic place hope if forward enough fresh.

Finished fourth at Urawa last start but was still beaten just over eight lengths by Summer End at big odds. The run prior was a fifth behind Lisian Draco when well-supported favourite, settling rearward and failing to convert market confidence. He remains unplaced in four starts and has missed a place at his only 1200m attempt, so a clear lift is required.

Ran third at Urawa last start, beaten just over five lengths by Summer End after starting near the top of an open market. That was a better effort than her previous run at this track, where she was favourite but weakened out to be beaten over 14 lengths. With three placings from four starts she is honest enough, though her one 1200m run was unplaced.

Worked home fairly from well back at Urawa last start, but was never a winning factor and finished seventh, beaten just over nine lengths by Maple Ship. Two back he finished a distant last behind Antares Tesoro after failing to improve. One placing from six starts is the main positive, and his recent margins leave him with too much to find.

Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing third at this track, beaten six and a half lengths by Welcome Lunch, having loomed before tiring late. His previous fourth behind Crazy Rocker was sound enough from big odds, and he has now placed once from three runs at around 1200m. The distance query remains, but he has a genuine minor-placing profile.

Returns from a one-month break after finishing second on debut at this track over 1000m, beaten four lengths by Noble Motion in a small field. She travelled well behind the leaders to the turn but could not quicken, so the step to 1200m is a fair test. Even so, she was well found in betting and has clear upside second-up, making her one of the main threats.

Returns from a one-month break after finishing second on debut at this track, but the margin tells the story, as he was well beaten by 30 lengths behind Make Tiara after being unwanted in the market. He did travel close enough to the turn, yet the overall performance leaves a large gap to bridge. Improvement is possible second-up, but he must lift sharply.
