Tokyo Race 5 - Tokyo 5r Eqplayerbuttonbyaccount('202604051005', 2);
Hard to split a field of debutants, but EQUATORE (8) appeals on pedigree for 1800m and maps to have options from the draw. TAISEI REMEMBER (6) also profiles well for this trip and should be strong late under 56kg. CAPE LE GRAND (3) looks a tidy type on breeding and gets a soft gate, while RAVERA (2) has a staying page that suits Tokyo’s long run-in. Leaning to EQUATORE (8) in a cautious verdict.
