Funabashi Race 3 - Race 3 - 1500
Small 2YO field over 1500m on a heavy Funabashi track; low exposed data, so map and barriers matter. WASSHOI (1) draws barrier 1 and should find the rail, which is an advantage in testing going. GUNSMITH (2) can stalk from barrier 2 and gets a soft run. AS EVER (3) has the tactical gate to settle handy. AMERICAN MELODY (6) is the lone filly and may handle heavy, but must offset a wider alley.
