Sapporo Race 2 - Mdn Race
MIHATENU YUME (11) returned last time with a solid third at this track over 1200m after trying to lead throughout but was swamped late. Fitter and ready to go a couple better. SCRAPE BY (10) is a two-start maiden who was unplaced on debut then improved to finish second last time over 1200m at this track, beaten 3.5 lengths. Should camp just off the leaders. Close to a win and should go well. ARDE SHINZAN (9) went forward last time but couldn't quicken in the run home and finished eighth over 1500m at this track. Looks to be in the right race to play a big role. LEADING ACTOR (3) ran below expectations last time at Niigata, finishing tenth and beaten 8 lengths. Well placed to atone.

Last start held ground to the line 2nd of 8 at this track on August 16 over 1200m, 3.5 len behind Typhoon Nine carrying 55.0kg at $32.90. Well-placed and should prove hard to beat.

Third race start. First start sat behind the speed prior to fading ran second last of 8 at Hakodate on June 27 over 1200m, 8 len behind Agordino carrying 55.0kg at $6.90. Returned from break led but faded 3rd of 14 at this track on August 30 over 1200m, 1.75 len behind Gal's Mind with 52.0kg at $28.60. Gave a sight fresh but run down late. Fitter and can go close again.
