Tokyo City Keiba Race 9 - Tokyo City Keiba B2
TO SPARKLE (9) hasn't won recently but looks close to a breakthrough based on his last start third at this track over 1400m when beaten 1.5 lengths. Will be hard to stop. GOLDEN BUZZER (10) was fresh from a five months break last start and scored by a neck at this track. Has four wins here. Reunites with Wada Joji who has three wins from nine rides. Well placed and should be in the finish. STAR OF FAITH (4) finished eighth two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1400m at this track, beaten 2.5 lengths after being prominent at the corner. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. SEKKACHI CANE (2) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing sixth at this track over 1200m. Placed to advantage so expect a better run this time.

Form hard to fault. Comes off a 35 day let-up. Last start came from midfield; 3rd of 16 at this track on February 20 over 1400m, 1.5 len behind Sai And Ko carrying 57kg at $3.70. Before that raced on the pace when 2nd of 14 at this track on January 13 over 1400m, head behind Riko Luger with 56kg at $5. One of the prime contenders in a most suitable contest.
