|---|---|---|---|---|

Longing Key has good early speed and can set a decent tempo. KOBINAI FOUNTAIN (10) pushed forward from a wide draw last start and found a position close to the lead before sticking on well to finish second over 1800m at Funabashi, continuing a run of placings. Suitably placed so could go one better. ANGELA CAFE (5) built on a nice third two starts back at Kawasaki with success over 1400m at Kawasaki two weeks ago, getting home by a neck. IOn current form she is one of the chief contenders. LONGING KEY (9) is better off back in trip having finished a close second over this distance at this track two back. Deserves another chance. B B FABLE (2) draws well and could get into the finish.
