Funabashi Race 12

Funabashi B2

Stake: $65,211

SEHR SCHNELL (8) is a talented galloper who is unbeaten in two runs this time in, the latest at this track over 1600m. Easy winner last time and looks the testing material again. TECHNO DIAMOND (5) bounced back last start and got the job done by 2 lengths after being prominent at the corner over 1700m at this track. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he can go back-to-back. PREVENANCE (4) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest at this track over 1700m. Another big run expected. BELGARATH (1) turned in an eye-catching run over 2000m at Kawasaki last time, ridden back before coming home with a powerful run to finish third. Must be included.
