This weekend's racing will consist of two graded stakes, the G2 Fuji Stakes and the G1 Kikuka Sho. In this article, our original AI will give you an insight into three main contenders for the Kikuka Sho.
Savona
Savona missed out on the first two legs of colt's Classics because his total earnings didn't reach the requirement. After a short break, he won the 2 Win Class Shinobuyama Tokubetsu and went on to finish second in the Kikuka Sho Trial G2 Kobe Shimbun Hai. After seeing Savona being placed in a graded stakes after that summer break, we could expect him to perform well in the Kikuka Sho. He also likes the longer distance races and 3000m should suit his racing style.
Tastiera
Tastiera finished second behind Sol Oriens in the G1 Satsuki Sho. When he went out and won the G1 Japanese Derby, he showed off his pace and sharp turn of foot. His rhythm and calmness will play to his advantage in a race of 3000m. His recent workouts also show his readiness for the Kikuka Sho.
Sol Oriens
Sol Oriens is the unbeaten winner of the G1 Satsuki Sho who finished second in the Japanese Derby close behind the Tastiera. He also showed stamina in the St Lite Kinen and 3000m will not be a problem for him.
