This weekend's racing will feature two graded stakes races at Tokyo and Kyoto Racecourse. Our original AI will guide you through the notable runners in the G3 Tokyo Shimbun Hai at Tokyo Racecourse, which will be run this Sunday.

Justin Cafe placed himself amongst the top-class horses last year after winning the G3 Epsom Cup and finishing third in the G1 Mile Championship. He showed his capability in this class and the market seems to support him. This race is a G3 and he should not struggle if he runs at the same level as he did in the Mile Championship. He also likes Tokyo Racecourse and the track condition should not bother him.

Avverare won her first graded stakes in the G3 Sekiya Kinen last year but has not been performing well since that run. This race will be in the same conditions as the Sekiya Kinen, which should bring an advantage to Avverare. Fillies and Mares also have a good performance record in the Tokyo Shimbun Hai and she could be the interesting horse to follow for this race.

Hrimfaxi is the winner of the G3 Kisaragi Sho, which followed a three-race winning streak after winning his maiden. He ran his first mile race last time out in the G3 Kyoto Kinpai and finished fifth. He seemed comfortable during the race and he was able to fully utilize his speed in the homestretch. This race will be his second mile race and improvement is expected from the last race. He might be an underdog, but could very well finish inside fifth.
