Funabashi Race 7 - Race 7 - 1000
VIVA ACAPULCO (10) Finished 7th last run at Urawa. Likely to bounce back. Has the early speed to burn across from the wide draw. Up to these. A'S QUEEN (12) Close up last start at Kawasaki. Has been a model of consistency this preparation. Respect in this event. EXCELLEN ARTHUR (5) Was competitive when 2nd last time at Urawa. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Can measure up to this company. EIS KING (4) Finished 7th last run at Urawa. Will give a big sight.

Has been well held in two runs this campaign, finishing ninth at Kawasaki last start when beaten just under ten lengths after settling midfield. The start prior was no better, ending last at Kawasaki and beaten over 13 lengths at long odds. Four wins at around 1000m are noted, but current form leaves her with a sizeable task.

Has taken a small step forward in her last two appearances, improving from seventh in a C1C2 at Urawa to fifth there last start, beaten five and a half lengths after being unwanted in the market. The overall profile remains moderate, with no placings from seven runs in the past 12 months, but the latest run was at least moving in the right direction. A minor placing is within reach if she keeps progressing.

Returns after three months on the sidelines, having finished his previous campaign with a sixth at this track in C1C2 company when beaten just over seven lengths at big odds. That run had merit late as he made ground from well back, but the start prior was a plain second last over 1200m. One placing from three tries at this track and distance keeps him in the place mix rather than the top winning bracket.

Was just fair when resuming at Urawa, finishing seventh behind Masano Hero and beaten just over six lengths after giving away a big start. His overall record is far stronger than that run, especially seven wins and two placings from ten starts at this track, but he has to find that old edge quickly. The venue suits, yet recent form keeps him under notice only at longer odds.

Resumed with a solid second at Urawa, beaten a length by Masano Hero after holding his position to the turn. That was a clear lift on his seventh there prior, when he raced handy but battled only fairly. The proven track-and-distance record is important, with two wins and one placing from five attempts around 1000m, and he shapes as a reliable place chance with winning claims if he turns the tables.

Returns after five weeks off a commanding C1C2 win at this track, scoring by three lengths from Marshal Un after travelling well and finishing powerfully. That built on a close sixth at this venue when beaten two and a half lengths, so the current form is strong. Two wins and three placings from seven starts at this track and distance give her the right base, and she looks the runner to beat again.

Comes back to around 1000m after two plain 1400m runs at Urawa, most recently fifth when beaten just over six lengths after failing to quicken. The key is that her only previous attempt at this trip produced a win, so the distance switch gives her a much better platform. First look at this venue is the unknown, but she has the profile to rebound strongly.

Arrives in strong order after winning at Urawa last start, beating Excellen Arthur by a length after making up plenty of ground and doing it with a bit in reserve. His previous second at this track behind Bricks Latte was sound despite being beaten six lengths, and the campaign trend is clearly positive. The first attempt around 1000m is new, but his current form makes him a serious winning chance.

Was disappointing first-up at Urawa, finishing seventh when beaten just over six lengths after starting near the top of an open market. The run prior was much better, a half-length second as a prohibitive odds-on favourite, but she must put the latest effort behind her. Akio Mikoshi has an excellent record aboard her, so improvement is possible, but the winning case is not compelling.

Has offered little in recent starts, finishing second last at Urawa last time when beaten just over nine lengths at big odds. The start prior at this track was no better, finishing 11th and beaten over 13 lengths after conceding a huge start. A previous placing around 1000m is only minor comfort, and his recent form is hard to recommend.

Went very close at Kawasaki last start, finishing second and beaten a head after travelling well behind the leaders. Her fourth there prior was also sound, making solid inroads from well back, and her season record of three wins and three placings from seven starts reads well. The query is this venue, where she is unplaced from three attempts, but her current form gives her genuine place appeal.
