Kokura Race 10 - Sarakurayama Tokubetsu

SEIUN PURSUIT (5) did a great job to score by a neck over today's course and distance when resuming from a layoff last time out. Steps up a level but he is worth serious consideration. TROPICAL LIGHT (4) is usually thereabouts but finds it hard to win, with just two wins from 20 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when fourth over 2600m at this track, beaten 2.5 lengths. In the right race and there is no reason she cannot get the major prize. CARRY HAPPINESS (1) is back from a break of three months. Raced below par at his only appearance last prep when fourth over 2200m at Kyoto. Should be poised just off the lead. Will be in this for a long way. VOLANTE (3) found the line nicely last start to get up for second over 2600m at this track. Among the main hopes.

Useful entire. Returns from a 41-day let-up. Most recently 12th of 14 at Nakayama on January 12 over 2200m, 21 len behind Dee My The Kid carrying 57.0kg at $21.70. The start before that won by a neck at Kyoto December 28 over 1800m defeating Tenku Hat with 57.0kg at $16.30. Cannot be ruled out despite a lacklustre effort last time.
