Tokyo City Keiba Race 11 - Tokyo City Keiba A2
MUT KURVE (4) raced in the leading division and kept going to score by a neck last time out over 1600m at this track. Drawn to enjoy a nice run just off the speed. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. GRAVIS (2) returns from a spell of 12 weeks. Was safely held at the only appearance last prep when tenth over 1800m at Chukyo Dirt. Under the care of new trainer Katsunori Arayama this prep. Sure to make his presence felt. BLESS WORD (10) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1600m at this track, beaten 4 lengths after being in contention on the bend. Strips fitter and can figure in the finish. MEINER SUBMARINE (1) has not appeared since he finished second over 2000m at this track on December 4. Among the better hopes.
