Hanshin Race 2 - Maiden Race
HO O MOTIVE (2) took advantage of the good draw when resuming from a spell last start and led for much of the way before finishing third, beaten 2.75 lengths, over 2100m at Tokyo Dirt. Strips fitter and will be hard to peg back. KRUGIST (7) ran well on debut last start to finish second over 1800m at Kyoto Dirt in an impressive launch to his career. Likely improver who will be hard to beat. GETARIA (1) has not raced since being well supported on his debut on November 9 over 1600m at Tokyo Dirt when he finished ninth, beaten 10 lengths. Top-three chance with that run under his belt. TARO (11) ran a better race last start at his second trip to the races, finishing fourth over 1900m at Kyoto Dirt. Ready to make his presence felt.

Raced twice to date. At very big odds at debut, failed to make an impression; 9th of 18 at Nakayama on December 28 over 2000m, 6 len behind Congestus carrying 56.0kg at $153.10. Second-up 4th of 14 at Kyoto Dirt on January 10 over 1900m, 1.3 len behind Saint Horse with 54.0kg at $11.70. Strong winning hope.

The race before that crossed from a wide gate to settle just off the pace but gave ground when 6th of 16 at Kyoto Dirt on January 4 over 1800m, 14 len behind Tagano Elu with 57.0kg at $6.40.
