Tokyo City Keiba Race 5 - Maiden Race
SAIMON CHARIOT (5) Managed to run into 2nd beaten by 2 1/2L last run at Chukyo. Will be hitting the line strongly. Key player. PLOT THICKENS (6) Inao Okada 3yo by Harbinger having first race start. Watch the market. DERMA TAKACHIHO (3) Racing as a debutant 3yo by Siskin for trainer Katsunori Tanaka. Watch early betting. FLARE OF SENSE (11) Overtook some late when 4th last start at Kokura. Goes very close.

Was $41.00 and gave ground late when 8th last time at Chukyo and will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Will be positive in the run early. Prefer in something weaker.

Jumped at $31.00 and didn't find the line when 9th last run at Kyoto but has a good draw. Won't be far away during the run. Will find this tough.

Resuming after a break. Started $26.00 and couldn't stay in touch when 12th last time here but having second career run. Should race on the speed. Hard to recommend.

Was $201.00 and weakened to finish 15th last run at this track. Gets back and needs luck. Too much luck needed to come into contention.

On a short turnaround. Jumped at $81.00 and lost ground in the run home when 14th last run at the track but was on debut last time. Making up the numbers.
