Urawa Race 10 - Urawa C1
ESPERADO (8) improved sharply on his fifth two starts back at Funabashi with a win over 800m at this track three-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by 4 lengths. Anticipating another big run. CAST LIGHT ON (9) lifted strongly to score last time with half a length to spare over 800m at this track, making it two on the bounce. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. May prove very tough to beat. KURA REVE (3) went forward over 1000m at Funabashi last time but found a couple better. Well placed and sure to give a great sight. MAJUTSUSHI KAERU (6) finished fourth two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 800m at this track. Has his share of talent and finds a suitable race.
