Tokyo Race 11 - The Epsom Cup(G3)
DOURADORES (4) boasts a strong overall strike rate and was a last start winner three months ago at Kokura over 2000m. Will drift back but wind up late. Outstanding fresh performer who will be tough to hold out. DANON AYERS ROCK (17) is a handy type who resumes after a break of five-and-a-half months. At his last appearance he finished seventh over 2000m in the G3 Challenge Cup at Kyoto, beaten 7 lengths. Has two wins to his name when fresh from a spell. Leading contender on best figures. STRAUSS (2) scored a commanding victory in stakes class at this track over 2000m at his latest appearance on 1 February, the only time he faced the starter in that campaign. Form at this track is solid. One of the main contenders. DAVID BAROWS (14) built on a nice second when fresh from a spell two starts back at Kyoto with a win over 1800m in a Listed race at Hanshin two months ago, getting home by 2.5 lengths. Can make it back-to-back successes.
