Hanshin Race 5 - Maiden Race
PANKY (2) finished third, beaten 2.75 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 2000m at Chukyo. Nice return and fitter again. Should go close. MEISHO ROSE (17) is racing well including a last start fifth over 2000m at this track. Expected to be in the finish. ZELANTE (12) is facing the starter for the first time. By Contrail and is out of the Mikio Matsunaga stable. Expect a bold run. WING SUNRISE (16) finished midfield last start on debut over 2000m at this track, beaten 10 lengths when in the market. Will take a lot from that hitout and should do much better.

Comes off a 55 day let-up. At the latest run 7th of 15 at Kyoto Dirt on February 1 over 1200m, 8 len behind Jasper Merche with 57.0kg at $12.70. The run before that held ground to the line 2nd of 8 at Kasamatsu on January 21 over 1400m, 2.5 len behind Smile Curve with 57kg at $1.30. Safely held last start but is capable of better.
