Chukyo Race 1 - Maiden Race
SESSHU (2) Showed a good turn of foot when 2nd beaten by 3/4L last run at Hanshin and has a good draw. Been in the money 2 from 2 attempts this campaign. Can win this. QUEEN'S SUZURAN (5) Pyro 3yo on debut for trainer Issei Murata. Watch for a sign in the market. JAGUAR RISE (10) Made ground when closing off to finish 5th last time at the track. Has to be strongly considered. JAKARTA BAO (8) Made some ground when 4th last start at the track. Worth strong consideration.

Good effort to run 2nd last run at Hanshin and drawn nicely. Has run into the placings at every start this preparation. Definite winning chance.

Resuming after a spell. Odds of $51.00 and looked outclassed when 9th last time at Kyoto but having second career run. Should muster plenty of early toe. Back in trip. Sharp improvement needed.

First run back from a break. Odds of $15.00 and tired late when 6th last time at Nakayama and was on debut last time. Likely to be well placed early. Not at all out of this race.

Fresh today. Was $126.00 and didn't find the line when 11th last run at Nakayama but fitter for debut run. Will be down in distance. Risky betting proposition.
