Urawa Race 1 - Urawa Japan C3
KOTORINO UTAU UTA (6) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1400m at Kawasaki, beaten 3 lengths after being prominent at the turn. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. SWERTIA (8) returns from a spell of 11 weeks and is having her first run for a new yard. Finished fourth at Niigata over 1000m when first-up last time in work. Expect her to pose a serious challenge. NOISETIER (1) showed good early speed last start over today's journey at this track before finishing third, beaten 13 lengths. Hard to beat in this suitable race. LONDON KID (5) produced a better run last start, beaten 6 lengths into fifth over 1400m at Kawasaki. Suitably placed so can turn things around.

Comes here off a 50-day let-up. Most recently second last of 12 at this track on January 8 over 800m, 12 len behind Long Beach with 55kg at $56.30. The start before that 5th of 10 at this track on December 23 over 800m, 6 len behind Tatsuno Dream carrying 56kg at $35.80. Might just find this a bit too tough.
