Himeji Race 3 - Race 3 - 1400
SUN SHIMME FLEUR (5) returns from a spell of 11 weeks and did score first-up when last in work at Funabashi over 1000m. Lines up for the first time for the Ikkoo Tanaka stable. Best fresh figures put her right in this. MONT THE SECOND (9) won his maiden over this course and distance last start, getting the verdict by 5 lengths. Breaks from a wide alley but he is right in the mix again. A SHIN CIGGIE (10) brings the right form to this race after taking out a 1500m contest at this track last time out by 0.8 lengths. One of the main contenders. TECHNO RUSH (3) never featured two back in tougher grade then last time drifted back but got home well to finish a 1.75 lengths third at this track. Looks well placed in this company and rates an each way chance again.
