Kyoto Race 2 - Maiden Race
REAL SAFARI (3) is back after a break of nine weeks. Went close to a maiden win before the layoff, finishing second at her latest appearance over 1800m at this track. Opened last prep with a minor placing at this track over 1900m. Has ability and can get off the mark. SCHNEEGLOCKEN (11) progressed nicely last time out to finish just a nose from the winner in second over 1800m at Hanshin Dirt after being prominent at the corner. Finds a suitable race and can build on that solid recent effort. A SHIN ANIMO (9) was beaten 4.5 lengths into third at Chukyo Dirt two starts ago then finished 1.5 lengths from the winner in fourth last time at Hanshin Dirt. Should be camped just off the leaders. Suited here and can feature with even luck. ODORANYA SONSON (14) was in the money two starts back at Chukyo Dirt then missed the frame but was not too far away last time over 1700m at Fukushima Dirt. Should be prominent throughout. This looks a nice race for him.

Was at very long odds at debut, 12th of 15 at Fukushima Dirt on April 12 over 1150m, 14 len behind Live Driver with 57.0kg at $219. Cannot enthuse after that sub-standard performance.

Form hard to fault. Last start raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 16 at Hanshin Dirt on April 5 over 1800m, 1.5 len behind Smart Krabi carrying 57.0kg at $7.20. Before that made some head-way from midfield; 3rd of 12 at Chukyo Dirt on March 22 over 1800m, 4.5 len behind Pod Volk carrying 55.0kg at $12.90. Can improve on that reasonable effort last time out.

Most recently tried to lead throughout but was claimed late 2nd of 16 at Hanshin Dirt on April 5 over 1800m, nose behind Smart Krabi carrying 55.0kg at $6.30.

Three-year-old colt (American Pharoah) making his debut. Tricky gate but has the right credentials to run a forward race.
