Hanshin Race 9 - Kaike Tokubetsu

TERRA MERITA (4) is yet to find the winners' list this time in work but has two placings from three starts this prep, finishing a neck away in second most recently over 1600m at this track. Key runner who should feature in the finish. FAIRYLIKE (5) will appreciate the longer journey after finishing a solid sixth when resuming last start over 1400m at Tokyo. Solid top-three chance. MORE RIGID (2) looks close to a win, finishing in the placings at his last couple of runs including a second most recently over 1600m at this track when beaten half a length. Naho Furukawa sticks. Certainly one to consider. LICANTROPO (1) improved last time out, finishing 2 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1600m at this track. Best efforts measure up so capable of another big run.
