Kyoto Race 10 - Elfin Stakes(L)
ADMIRE SHURA (2) wasted no time getting off the mark as favourite on debut over 1800m at this track three months ago and has not been produced since. Sure to be further improved this prep and can make it back-to-back wins. FERMI ARC (8) got the job done as favourite on debut over 1600m at Tokyo 11 weeks ago at the only run to date. Expect her to come back bigger and better this campaign. SWEET HAPPINESS (4) is going well this prep and found the line strongly at the latest appearance when fourth in the G1 Hanshin Juvenile Fillies. Winning rider Riki Takasugi sticks. That elite level form reads well. DEA VELOCE (7) broke her maiden last start over 1400m at Hanshin, scoring by a neck. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. One to consider.

Was at big odds at debut, won won by a neck at Hanshin December 20 over 1600m defeating Call Love carrying 55.0kg at $27.20. No reason she cannot make it two in a row.

Racing well recently. Comes here off a 41-day let-up. At the latest run favourite; won by a neck at Hanshin December 28 over 1400m defeating La La Diable carrying 55.0kg at $1.50. Before that 2nd of 18 at Hanshin on December 7 over 1400m, 3 len behind Make One's Day with 55.0kg at $3.30. Scored a maiden win last time and is worth thought again.

Resuming after a four months break. Finished off last campaign second last of 7 at Tokyo Dirt October 13 over 1600m, 15 len behind T M Kihaku with 55.0kg at $21.10. At her first start won by head Chukyo August 3 over 1600m defeating Sardine Run carrying 55.0kg at $6.90. Cannot make a strong case.
