Kawasaki Race 11 - Kawasaki
ELEPHANT RUN (3) saluted at the first run back from a spell last start over 1400m at this track, scoring by 1.5 lengths. Has been given a let-up of five weeks since that outing. Will be better for that latest run and will be a tough nut to crack again. ECORO NEO (2) is resuming from a spell of 11 weeks and having his first run for the Yoshihisa Suzuki yard. Was in the placings when first-up from a spell last campaign at Tokyo Dirt over 1300m. Solid chance first-up for the new barn. LYSINE (10) is having his first run since April 7. Has a strong record when fresh with six wins from 11 runs, the most recent over 2000m at Urawa at the start of last prep. Has found a suitable race to kick off the campaign. SNOWSHOE (8) returned from a spell five weeks ago when he was prominent at the corner before being beaten 6 lengths into fourth over 1600m at this track. Fitter this time will prove harder to beat.

Racing well recently. Comes here off a 35-day let-up. Most recently tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 12 at this track on May 15 over 1600m, 1.0 len behind Dream Japan carrying 57kg at $6.10. The race before that held ground to the line 3rd of 10 at this track on April 10 over 1600m, 1.75 len behind Gouvernail with 56kg at $4.40. Thereabouts last time out. Definite top-three prospect.
