Kawasaki Race 8 - Race 8 - 1500
JINGGA BLITZ (6) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid second at Funabashi over 1500m after being in contention all the way. Has the pace to be thereabouts from the outset. Meets some better types this time but another big run will not surprise. ASK URBAN SEA (5) is a seven-start maiden who could only manage to finish ninth after being prominent at the corner at his latest appearance over 1500m at Funabashi. Likely to be in the finish in this suitable assignment. SUCCESS BEIJU (1) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing second last time out over 1500m at Funabashi. Should be prominent again from the low draw. Must raise the bar but this looks well within his grasp. TAVANESTAN (4) was racing well without winning, finishing in the money on two consecutive occasions, before finishing eighth last time out over 1500m at this track. Should settle handy in the run. Can feature in the finish.

Recent form sound. Last start gave a sight but was run down late 2nd of 12 at Funabashi on June 2 over 1500m, 1.0 len behind Gold Partner with 56kg at $5.50. The race before that 4th of 12 at Funabashi on May 4 over 1500m, 4 len behind Gold Breeder with 56kg at $5. Nice effort last time so worth following up.

Recent form sound. At the latest run made some head-way from midfield; 2nd of 12 at Funabashi on June 4 over 1500m, 4 len behind Eukleia with 56kg at $1.60. Before that held ground to the line 2nd of 12 at this track on April 10 over 1400m, 1.5 len behind Ino carrying 58kg at $1.80. Plenty to like about his prospects.
