Tokyo Race 4 - Tokyo
OPULENT JEWEL (6) knuckled down strongly to get within 1.3 lengths of the winner in second last start over 1800m at this track when resuming after a break. Drawn to stalk the leaders. Expected to be in the finish. MOTTISFONT (5) turned in a good effort on debut ten weeks ago when 3 lengths away in third at Nakayama over 1600m. Has not been to the races since that outing. Sure to have improved over the break and is a leading contender. HONEY DRESS (11) has not been sighted since she finished second on debut over 2000m at Nakayama on December 14. Hard to knock. RIPOSANTE (10) is back from a spell of 11 weeks. Debuted with a second, beaten 0.8 lengths, over 1600m at Nakayama at her only appearance to date. One of the main contenders.
