Tokyo Race 2 - Mdn Race
SCIA LUNARE (2) sets the standard with back-to-back 2nds at 2000m, including here when beaten 0.5L, and looks ready to convert. VERBANIA (7) is the main danger after a narrow 3rd over this track and trip last time, holding a consistent 2000m profile. WINNING RAY (4) has claims with two recent 3rds at 2000m, including at Tokyo, and maps to be competitive again. The rest have ground to make up off recent margins; narrow edge to SCIA LUNARE (2).

Second up after an 8th of 11 over 2000m at Tokyo on 11 Oct, beaten 4.31L at $101.00 on good ground. Stays at the same trip and sticks with Koo Nagahama. Any improvement with the run under his belt would see him more competitive.

Placed in 2 of last 3 and comes off a strong Tokyo 2000m run on 3 Oct, finishing 2nd of 11, beaten 0.5L at $4.00. Draws much better here, shifting from barrier 8 to 2 since that run. With Daisuke Sasaki booked again and a similar set-up, this colt profiles as a leading chance to be in the finish.

First up after around 5 months and draws much better than last time, moving from barrier 10 to 3. Last start at Tokyo over 1800m on 7 Jun he finished 10th of 10, beaten 15.35L at $9.00. The softer gate gives Norihiro Yokoyama options, and the step to 2000m could help him settle into a rhythm.

Placed in 2 of her last 3 and stuck on for 3rd of 11 over 2000m at Tokyo on 3 Oct, beaten 2.25L at $23.00. Draws much better here moving from barrier 10 to 4, which should help her find a smoother run. With Masami Matsuoka up again and proven at the trip at this track, she has solid claims.

Fourth up and sticks to 2000m after a Sapporo run on 6 Sep where he finished 6th of 10, beaten 5.55L at $81.00. Draws better with barrier 5 after coming from 10 last start, which can help balance the map. With Tatsuki Endou aboard for Takuya Matsuo, this cleaner gate gives the colt a chance to settle and improve. Competitive claims if he can hold that trip and use the draw.

Second up after a Tokyo 1800m debut on 3 Oct when 7th of 11, beaten 16.8L at $91.00. Steps to 2000m and stays at Tokyo, which may suit this preparation. With Takuya Kowata aboard again, improvement is possible with race experience and the extra trip.

Second up after a debut at Tokyo over 2000m on 11 Oct when 3rd of 14, beaten 0.4L at $1.32. Stays at the same trip and keeps Takeshi Yokoyama. That near-miss at this track and distance reads well for this small field.
