FUNABASHI   11 Mar 2025
 
GOING: G

Race 5 1500m

Track: GOOD      

Pace genuine with Meisho Kammuri and Win Protea pressing hard closely followed by Bear Way To Go and Eclair Sky. BOLD TOP (2) was last at the races when he finished eighth over 1400m at Urawa on October 24. Now under the care of new trainer Isao Sasaki. Looks a winning chance. MEISHO KAMMURI (8) recorded a strong maiden win over 1500m at this track last time, getting there by 2.5 lengths. Looks well placed and he is one of the main chances. SATONO ALIVE (6) finished out of the money when fresh from a spell two starts back then he settled well back and was beaten 6 lengths when seventh over 1500m at this track four weeks ago. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. ECLAIR SKY (5) made it four minor placings in a row last start when third over 1500m at Urawa. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways.
