Kawasaki Race 6 - Kawasaki C3
VAINQUEUR CITY (9) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when second over 1500m at Urawa after being in contention all the way. Likely improver with strong prospects. CAPELLA STAR (7) was in contention on the bend and progressed nicely last start to finish a close second over 2000m at Urawa after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. PARTY KING (1) scored last start at this track to make it two wins from three starts this campaign. Backmarker who gets home hard. One to consider. QUEEN'S KAYANOHIME (4) comes here following a win over 1500m at Urawa two-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by one length. Profiles to run well.
