Niigata Race 11 - Dainichidake Tokubetsu

VENT VIVE (4) turned in a good effort when narrowly defeated last time at Fukushima over 1200m. Starting to make a habit of finding one or two better and is now 580 days without a win. However, this sets up nicely and he is a great chance to end the drought. B B EFFORT (15) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid second at Nakayama over 1200m. Meeting a deeper field this time but she cannot be left out. HONEY LAURIER (13) finished second last start over 1000m at this track, beaten 1.3 lengths. Likely improver with bright prospects. PARTICULAR (2) resumes today after filling a minor placing at her only appearance last prep at Chukyo over 1400m on March 21. Worth plenty of thought.

Returns from a 49-day let-up. Last start second last of 9 at Hanshin on April 4 over 1200m, 9 len behind Diadochos carrying 58.0kg at $62.20. The race before that second last of 12 at Kochi on March 24 over 1400m, 10 len behind Point Forward carrying 57kg at $16. Poorly drawn and will need luck.

Last Starts 48 days since last start
