Sapporo Race 11 - The Sapporo Kinen(G2)

SHOHEI (7) is a talented entire who tackled a tougher race at his last run on April 5 and finished tenth behind Croix Du Nord over 2000m in the G1 Osaka Hai at Hanshin. Should park just off the speed. Has a strong record this level and goes best when fresh. Expected to play a major role. ADMIRE TERRA (10) is having his first run since May 3. Has a strong record when fresh with three wins from six runs, the most recent over 3000m at Hanshin at the start of last prep. Makes plenty of appeal. MAGIC SANDS (4) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when fifth, beaten 2.5 lengths, over 2000m in the G3 Hakodate Kinen. Will strip fitter and is expected to do much better. SHAKE YOUR HEART (15) is back from a break of nine weeks. Raced below par at his only appearance last prep when 14th over 2200m in the G1 Takarazuka Kinen at Hanshin. Yoshihiro Furukawa who has scored on him five times retains the mount. Not to be discounted.

Back from a spell. Only had one start last campaign 10th of 15 in the G1 Osaka Hai at Hanshin on April 5 over 2000m, 7 len behind Croix Du Nord with 58.0kg at $6.10. Won previous preparation first up won by 1.5 len in the G2 American Jockey Club Cup at Nakayama on January 25 over 2200m defeating Douradores with 57.0kg at $5. Has a strong record this level and goes best when fresh. Expected to play a major role.
