FUKUSHIMA   19 Apr 2026
 
GOING:

SUKAGAWA TOKUBETSU 1200m

Track:      

Leonard Star, Jennifer and Saison De Feuilles to match motors but there will be other pressure. SAISON DE FEUILLES (1) is racing well and has registered four minor placings in a row, last time out finishing second over 1200m at Kokura. Drawn to enjoy a good run on the speed. Gets chance. SHAYKH (11) is fresh from a spell of four-and-a-half months and did hit the frame when last resuming at Kyoto over 1600m. In a different yard now. Has ability and should be right in the finish. LA LA BANYULS (16) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1200m at Kokura, beaten 4.5 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend. Change of rider and fitter. Can atone. BIG FLOWER (15) finished sixth when resuming two runs back then did a good job last start but found a couple better over 1400m at Chukyo, beaten only 1.4 lengths. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race.
