Hanshin Race 10 - Sakai Stakes

SHONAN BANRAI (10) is a talented colt who tackled tougher grade last time, finishing 5 lengths behind Coeli Vento over 1800m in the G3 Leopard Stakes at Niigata Dirt. K Ikezoe has won when aboard in the past and gets the ride again. Should be in the finish. GIAN BAROWS (5) resumed over 1800m at this track last start and was too good for his rivals, scoring by a nose. Open to plenty of improvement and another big run will not surprise. DANTSU SHITAN (1) continues to race well with a win two back at Chukyo Dirt before finishing 1.3 lengths away in second last time over 1900m at Chukyo Dirt. Has a solid record at this journey with three wins from 10 starts and is one of the contenders. MATENRO BRAVE (6) drifted back early when resuming last start and could only manage a 10 length ninth over 1800m at this track. Has a decent second up record. Can do better this time.

Second run back. First-up after four months came from midfield and won by a nose at this track on September 5 over 1800m defeating Chronus Bullet with 55.0kg at $4.30. Previously second-up won by 1.0 len at Kyoto Dirt on May 17 over 1800m defeating Sistema Solar with 57.0kg at $15. Building a good strike-rate. Fitter for recent racing and can make it three straight.

Comes here off a 49-day let-up. Last start 6th of 12 in the G3 Leopard Stakes at Niigata Dirt on August 9 over 1800m, 5 len behind Coeli Vento carrying 57.0kg at $4.10. Before that raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by 5 len at Kokura Dirt on July 12 over 1700m defeating Sunrise Kevin with 55.0kg at $1.50. Wound up late last time in much tougher grade. Capable of a better run.
