Funabashi Race 7 - Funabashi C1
GENES SENSE LUCE (8) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish 5.5 lengths away in third over 1500m at this track. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. EIFER SHADOW (10) scored at this track last time out with 2 lengths in reserve at the end of 1500m. Yet to miss the frame in two starts over this course and distance. Leading player again. LETEMPS ALLURE (6) finished sixth over this distance, beaten 10 lengths, at his latest outing. Has a strong record at this trip, scoring five times from 10 starts. Should be poised just off the lead. One of the main contenders. LORD VESPER (2) is experiencing a long win drought but this is a race he could figure in.
