Saga Race 1 - Race 1 - 900
A tricky 900m dash of debutants, with CHARON TESORO (1) drawn the rail and carrying 55kg looking the most likely to land on speed and control. SAN BENITO (6) appeals as the filly with a slight weight edge at 54kg and sharp US sprint breeding to be strong late. SHISHI KIBARE (3) profiles as another with genuine speed influences and a handy middle draw to stalk and pounce. KASHINO SUAREZ (4) also maps to be prominent at 55kg and can stick on. Lean to CHARON TESORO (1) in a tight maiden.

First starter filly for Shinichi Higashi with Ren Hasegawa booked, debuting over 900m at Saga. Well-bred by California Chrome out of Meine Presea, which suits a sharp sprint test. Low field size of six helps keep things uncomplicated. San Benito presents a neat debut profile without exposed form to weigh down her chances.
