Tokyo Race 2 - Maiden Race
HO O MOTIVE (2) returns after 12 weeks in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a fifth over 1800m at Kyoto. Ready for a bold run. COPANO EIDAN (12) is close to breaking through, last start finishing just a nose away in second over 1800m at Nakayama Dirt after being in contention all the way. Likely improver with strong prospects. TWIN DRIVE (13) is a two-start maiden who returned last time and finished fifth at Nakayama Dirt over 1800m, beaten 7 lengths. Should progress from that last outing and poses a genuine threat. DANCING AWAY (7) could only manage to finish 14th, beaten 13 lengths, at his latest appearance over 2000m at Kokura after he was well back on straightening. This looks a nice race so expect him to finish closer.

Resuming after a 12 weeks break. Finished off last campaign fifth of 11 at Kyoto November 22 over 1800m, 2 len behind Viscontessa carrying 56.0kg at $3.10. On debut second of 9 at Kyoto November 8 over 1800m, 0.5 len behind Admire Shura with 56.0kg at $4.70. Could prove too smart for these.
