Himeji Race 4 - Race 4 - 800
BAN NYU (3) was responsible for a solid effort last time out when second at this track over 800m, beaten 1.3 lengths. Should be at her peak now. No excuses from this draw; leading player. TIARA AZUL (6) is a five-start maiden who could only manage to finish fourth after being in contention on the corner at her latest appearance over 1500m at this track. Rates highly in this field and can turn things around. WONDER MONOLITH (1) is a three-year-old colt on debut from the stable of Ikkoo Tanaka. By Wonder Acute from Wonder Ema. A good gate is sure to assist. Watch for a betting push. GRAPHOS (12) turned in a sound effort at start two when sixth over 800m at this track three weeks ago. Finds a more suitable contest and can play a role in the finish.
