Tokyo Race 4 - Mdn Race
I AM IGAINIMO (7) appeals most off a solid 3rd at Tokyo 2000m, beaten 3.75L, with proven track-and-trip stats to suit. TEMPO ANIMATO (3) is a danger after a 2nd at 2000m on debut despite an 8L margin, and can build second up. YAMAME GORYU (1) is in the mix from the inside draw after a 2nd at 1800m last start and stretches to 2000m. EARTH GRAZING (8) has some local 2000m grounding with two runs at the trip and can hold a spot. Lean I AM IGAINIMO (7) on the established Tokyo 2000m platform.

Third up and coming off a strong 2nd of 13 at Niigata over 1800m on 18 Oct, beaten 1.75L at $10.00. Draws the inside after barrier 7 last time, which can help stepping to 2000m at Tokyo. With Keita Tosaki booked, this looks a suitable set-up to hold form and be competitive.

Fourth up and comes off a Niigata 2000m run on 25 Oct where he finished 6th of 18, beaten 8.11L on yielding at $20.00. Draws better with barrier 2 after jumping from 5 last time, which should help secure a handier spot. With Daisuke Sasaki up for Takashi Kanari, this set-up gives Meiner Labyrinth a chance to progress over the same trip at Tokyo.
