THE TANABATA SHO 2000m Track: |
||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Solid tempo with Cosmo Fliegen leading from Sirius Colt and Schilthorn. DOURADORES (15) is back from a spell of nine weeks. Raced once last campaign and finished second over 1800m in the G3 Epsom Cup at Tokyo. Has an impressive strike rate at this distance with three wins from five runs and is sure to go well. COSMO FLIEGEN (2) is a talented galloper with a very good strike rate who finished off last campaign with a win over 2200m at Nakayama on April 20. Goes very well when fresh from a spell with two wins from three starts. New to black-type racing but is likely to feature. SIRIUS COLT (8) was an impressive winner last time over 2000m in the G3 Niigata Daishoten, scoring by 2 lengths to make it two on the bounce. Has a formidable combination with Yoshihiro Furukawa who has been aboard for those two wins. Has to be respected. SEVEN MAGICIAN (13) was sent out at long odds when resuming last time but ran above expectations to finish second, beaten only 1.3 lengths, over 1600m at Hanshin. Up in grade but not out of contention. .
