Kyoto Race 5 - Maiden Race
AIR VIBES (3) found the line nicely last start to get up for second over 1600m at this track when returning from a break. Riki Takasugi stays aboard. Will strip fitter so expect her to feature. A SHIN BEACON (1) returned from a spell three weeks ago when he was beaten 2.25 lengths into sixth over 1600m at this track. Really found the line strongly from the back. Fitter so anticipating a better run this time. AYRTON (17) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race and finished 2.25 lengths away in fifth last time out over 1600m at this track after being prominent at the turn. Tricky gate but has the pace to cross. Anticipating a big run this time. BICHENO (14) went forward last time but couldn't quicken in the run home and finished fifth over 2000m at this track. Ready to win. Should be right in the finish.

Jumped at very long odds at debut, 8th of 18 at Hanshin on April 4 over 1400m, 4.5 len behind Mighty Kingdom with 55.0kg at $124.40. Cannot enthuse after the moderate debut effort.
