Funabashi Race 11 - Race 11 - 1600
TRUE TARGET (3) looks the one after dominant 1500m wins here by 6L then 2.5L, handles Funabashi and should relish 1600m. GOLD CARRERA (1) is a danger with two wins from his last three, including a Kawasaki 1600m success and a 6L romp at 1500m, and draws the rail with 55kg. FLY THE FLAG (5) has solid local credentials and returned with a 5L Funabashi win over 1500m; up to 1600m suits on that finish. NANIWANO BENKEI (8) is consistent with 1-2-3 figures from three here and a recent 2nd over 1500m; maps to be in touch. Leaning to TRUE TARGET (3) to extend the streak over the mile.

Won 2 of last 3 and was dominant at Kawasaki over 1500m on 14 Oct, scoring by 6L at $1.15. Draws the inside after barrier 4 last time, which could help around Funabashi’s mile. With Jouji Wada up, Gold Carrera brings the right profile to figure again.

Placed in 4 of last 5 and draws much better, moving from barrier 8 to 2. Last start at Monbetsu over 1800m he was 4th of 12, beaten 4.8L at $5.50 on good ground. He also profiles well from inside alleys, with (1-3) barriers yielding 3:1-1-1. Solid claims with the softer gate and consistent recent form.

Third up and coming off a dominant Funabashi 1500m win on 30 Sep, scoring by 2.5L on heavy at $2.35. Steps to 1600m and keeps Masashige Honda, with the same trainer-jockey pairing. That last performance reads well for this, and he looks to be progressing the right way.

Placed in 2 of last 3 and comes off a solid 2nd of 11 at Urawa over 1400m on 20 Oct, beaten 2L at $1.95. Draw improves from 11 to barrier 4, which should help at 1600m. Has a good rapport with Shouya Hozono for Satoshi Kokubo (3:1-1-0). Well set up to be competitive again.

Second up and arrives off a dominant Funabashi 1500m win on 28 Sep, scoring by 5L at $7.50 on soft. Placed in 3 of last 3 and boasts a solid Funabashi record (3:1-1-1). Steps to 1600m with Aoi Shinoya aboard and proven course form gives him a sound platform.

Fourth up and placed in 2 of last 3, with solid figures at Funabashi (3:1-1-0). Last start here over 1500m on 30 Sep he was $2.50 and finished 5th of 9, beaten 14L on heavy ground. Back to Funabashi 1600m looks reasonable on his local record, and Norifumi Mikamoto sticks. Competitive claims on home-track form if he bounces off that heavy-track miss.

Fourth up and won 2 of last 3, so the prep has largely been heading the right way despite a miss at Kawasaki over 1600m on 14 Oct when 11th of 11, beaten 38.5L at $5.00. Back to 1600m suits on exposed form, and Takayuki Yano sticks. With that poor run the exception rather than the rule this campaign, Premium Team can be competitive here.

Fourth up and holding form, with placings in 3 of the last 3. Last start at Funabashi over 1500m on 30 Sep he finished 2nd of 9, beaten 2.5L on heavy at $9.00. Strong affinity with this track (3:1-1-1) and the Kawashima/Inamasu combo mirrors that record (3:1-1-1). Solid credentials to handle the rise to 1600m at this venue.

Fourth up and placed in 2 of last 3, he returns to Funabashi where he’s (3:1-1-0). Last start he was 4th of 9 over 1500m here on 30 Sep on heavy, beaten 9L at $7.00. The 1600m looks within reach and the established Kenji Okamura/Yuuta Satou combination (3:1-1-0) is a plus. Solid each-way claims around this track profile.

Placed in 2 of last 3 and comes here off a solid 3rd of 12 at Monbetsu over 1800m on 30 Sep, beaten 0.8L at $11.00. The drop back to 1600m looks a natural fit for this 2YO colt. Hiroto Yoshihara sticks, which suits continuity. Competitive claims if holding that level.
