Hanshin Race 3 - Maiden Race
GARAVOGUE (2) was well supported on debut last start and turned in a strong effort to finish second over 1800m at Niigata. Can get off the mark this time. MATENRO GALE (5) will find this a little easier than his second on debut five weeks ago, beaten one length at the end of 2000m at Chukyo. Sure to take a lot from that hitout so he should pay to follow. BLACK CORAL (3) has not raced since his debut back on June 15 when he finished eighth over 1800m at this track. Should take a lot from that run. PIENA BLACK (4) was fair on debut last start when sixth over 1400m at Chukyo. Tackles a longer journey this time. Has upside and can measure up.

Jumped at a huge quote at debut, 8th of 10 at Chukyo on August 9 over 1400m, 8 len behind I Need You with 55.0kg at $75.40. Requires plenty of improvement after a modest debut.
