Tokyo Race 5 - Maiden Race
RULING CLASS (7) appeals most after a narrow 2nd at Niigata over 1800m, beaten 0.1L when on pace. JUNABELA (13) also rates highly off her 2nd at Niigata over 1800m, finishing 2L from the winner after charging from midfield. FINE BRIGHT (12) is in the mix after an 8th at Niigata over 1800m, beaten 2.36L, and earlier 5ths at Nakayama suggest he stays. CLEAR GALE (5) has been around the mark, 8th at Tokyo over 2000m beaten 4.7L after a late improve, and 7th at Nakayama over 1800m prior; each can figure if they hold that level.
