Urawa Race 4 - Urawa Japan 3Yo

AWESOME SHADOW (7) has switched yards since scoring by half a length at Nagoya over 1500m on June 25. Key runner who will be tough to beat. MELA (5) is yet to break through after three career starts. Managed to fill a minor placing at this track two starts back before finishing fifth over 1400m at this track last start. Likely to be about the money. YES YUI CAN (6) finished 8 lengths from the winner in sixth last start over 900m at Kawasaki, an improvement on her eighth at this track the run before. Needs to be at her best to beat this field but she cannot be taken lightly. DENDERARYUBA (3) is back from a spell of five months. Closed last prep with a 12th, beaten 22 lengths, over 1400m at this track. Key contender.
