Tokyo Race 2 - Mdn Race
NAMURA ALABAY (6) appeals most dropping back to 1400m after a solid 4th at Tokyo over 1600m, and the market support aligns with that recent improvement. SOUTHERN MAXIM (11) is a danger off a 5th of 18 at this trip on GOOD, holding a clear maiden platform at the distance. COOL RUNNER (7) has claims after a 5th here over 1400m and should strip fitter second up. LIVE BOURBON (10) is in the mix having finished 4th at this track and trip, and that run gives her a place in the finish; slight nod to NAMURA ALABAY (6) on exposed form.

First starter 2yo colt by Lovely Day out of Win Muse for Issei Murata, debuting over 1400m at Tokyo on GOOD. Hiroto Mayuzumi takes the ride. Debut set-up is straightforward and he maps to learn plenty under race pressure.

Draws much better here, moving from barrier 12 to 3, which should help over 1400m at Tokyo. Last time at this track and trip on 17 Oct she finished 7th of 12, beaten 12.55L at $151.00. With the softer gate and Shoma Sato aboard, Ichigo Wataame gets a more favourable set-up to improve.

First up off roughly three months and drops to 53kg, with a much kinder draw in barrier 4 after jumping from 12 last time. At Niigata over 1600m on 2 Aug he finished 12th of 12, beaten 12.25L on GOOD at $151.00. Back to 1400m and the improved set-up gives Kimieno Melody a chance to show more.
