Hanshin Race 11 - The Mainichi Hai(G3)

KAFUJI EMMENTAL (2) returned from a three months break over 1800m last start and got the job done by 3.5 lengths at this track. Big winner fresh at this course and distance. Expected to measure up again. ALTRAMUZ (4) was far too good on debut then Grade 3 placed before another break.Drawn well and will be winding up late. UP HELLY AA (6) was a strong maiden winner then put away. Just missed fresh and looks hard to hold out again. LORBEERKRANZ (3) opened this prep last start with a seventh, beaten 3.5 lengths, over 1800m at Kyoto. Solid return in stakes class. Best figures measure up. Should progress from that first-up run.

Second-up. Won on debut won by a nose at Tokyo October 25 over 2000m defeating Black Olympia with 56.0kg at $3.80. Returned from break made some head-way from midfield; 2nd of 12 at Nakayama on January 25 over 1800m, 1.0 len behind Blaenavon with 57.0kg at $3.70. Strong maiden winner then put away.
