1600m – Dirt
Annunciation |
Chronically late at break but makes up with good late speed. Is 1-2-3 over Tokyo 1600m in 3 career starts. Has ample chance. |
Clean Slate |
Won over Nakayama 1800m last out early January after given more distance. Fourth in Chukyo 1400m. Tokyo mile could suit. |
Fumichan |
Mixed bag of turf and dirt. Inconsistent. Not likely to be competitive at Tokyo. |
Jody’s Marron |
Being given 1-2 furlongs more after minimal success in 7 starts. Extra distance a definite plus but likely not competitive here. |
Lucky Mo |
Only 2nd start, first since October debut win over Kyoto 1400m. Wild card. |
Mabu Stork |
Sixth start, fourth over JRA track. Moving from 1200m to mile. Extra distance a plus. Good late speed. |
Medieval |
Has made top three spots in 7 of 8 career starts, all sprints. Being given extra furlong for first time. Experienced at Chukyo, first time at Tokyo. Extra distance not necessarily a plus but likely competitive amid this field. |
No Double Dip |
Has raced in first or second position in 3 starts this year for 4-2-5, last two over mile. Won over Tokyo mile in November. Promising. |
Noble Silhouette |
Only 4th start, debuted with 6th over Tokyo mile, followed by 1-2 over 1800m in 2 starts at Nakayama. Good speed. Filly may be on a roll. |
Peisha June |
All 4 starts on board, 3 in money. Has 2-2 from 2 Tokyo starts over mile. Returning to mile from 1800m. Promising. |
Rainy Day |
First race since November start at NAR track. Broke maiden on 4th start over Chukyo 1800m. Poor showings at Tokyo. Not promising. |
Tagano Tulle |
Has best a 4th from last 5 starts, all over 1800m. Had always raced from far off pace but was able to get good position last out for first time under new rider. Less distance a plus. |
Tamamo Butokai |
Finished 6th in Tokyo mile in January and posted 4-5 in next 2 starts over Nakayama 1800m after jockey change and raced from more forward position last out. Decent speed. New strategy may help at Tokyo. |
Thank You Letter |
Following win over Nakayama 1800m in September returned after 7 months for 4th in same on 18 April. Improvement likely. First time to left. Speed decent. Has chance. |
Top The Bill |
Led for first time in January for 3rd in Chukyo 1800m. Returned after 3 months for 10th in Hanshin over same distance. Improvement likely with shorter distance. Could surprise. |
Win Prost |
Raced with little success on JRA tracks. Only finishes on board at NAR tracks. Not likely to translate well to Tokyo. |
