Urawa Race 3 - Race 3 - 800
Limited exposed form leaves this 800m Urawa dash wide open; low draws help the speed. From barrier 1, FUN RUN GEAR (1) maps to use the rail at 55kg. Stablemates VINA YEN (2) and FLOWER RIBBON (5) draw well in 2 and 5 for Kazunori Sakai and get 54kg, while REWARD MINDY (3) has the services of Masashige Honda from gate 3 and should be handy early.
