Tokyo Race 5 - Maiden Race
WADI AL RIYAH (11) finished second last time out when resuming over 1400m at Chukyo, making it three career minor placings. Yet to miss the top-three in two runs at this circuit. Won't get too many better chances to break through. GRAN MAESTRO (9) returned last time with a solid second at this track over 1400m. Going better than the vast majority of these and should feature in the finish. SHINE ALPS (14) has only raced once and finished a nose away in second over 1600m at this track three months ago. Will be better for that experience so she is among the winning hopes. ITOSHISA (1) was well fancied but below his best at the last run before a break on February 7, finishing fifth over 1200m at Kokura. Can play a role in the finish.
