Funabashi Race 11

Kashiwa Kinen (L)

Prize Money: $1,486,664

Terrific race with all eyes on the return of Group One winner COSTA NOVA (7). Scored at his latest appearance over 1600m in the G1 February Stakes at Tokyo Dirt on February 23. Has a very good first-up record - had also scored first up last prep - and he kicks off as one of the top dirt performers in Japan. These days that equates to being one of the top dirt performers on the planet. High expectations! LORD FONS (10) started last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1400m at Tokyo right behind COSTA NOVA and that ties him right in as a threat again. SHAMAL (5) is progressing well this preparation. Opened with a fourth at Nagoya two starts back then scored by 4 lengths last time out after being prominent at the turn over 1400m at Kochi. Meets some better types this time but have to like how he is going. WILLIAM BAROWS (3) was safely held at the only appearance last prep in the G1 February Stakes behind Costa Nova but he is a good horse and must be respected.

Third-up today and won third-up in the past. Not raced for 41 days. First-up tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 10 at Nagoya on February 24 over 1500m, 2 len behind Lord Fons carrying 59kg at $10.70. Second run from a spell scored a big 4 len win at Kochi March 25 over 1400m defeating Aladdin Barows carrying 59kg at $6.90. Fitter and should appreciate the step up to 1600m.
