Funabashi Race 10 - Funabashi B2
MALDIVES FLAVOR (7) improved sharply on his fourth two starts back at this track with a win over 1600m at this track a month ago, getting home by 2.5 lengths. Likely to be there at the finish again. SMILE MORE (9) resumes today after filling a minor placing at his last appearance at this track over 1600m on December 12. Capable of playing a major role. GIRARDET (1) settled well back from a wide draw last time then wound up strongly to finish fourth over 1800m at this track. Solid top-three prospects. PRESTO MULAN (6) disappointed at her last run three months ago when seventh at this track, that effort following back-to-back wins. Did kick off her last prep with a win over 1200m at this track. Anticipating a strong return to racing.

Form hard to fault. Comes off a 30 day let-up. Last start came from midfield and won by 2.5 len at this track February 11 over 1600m defeating Plasma carrying 56kg at $13.50. The start before that sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 13 at this track on January 21 over 1600m, 3 len behind Gentle Touch with 57kg at $30. Ideally placed to make it two on the trot.
