Caterpillar's Murmur
Personal Point of View
(THU) October 9th, 2025
9:13 p.m. Some forecasts are predicting rain for Saturday, due to the approaching typhoon stimulating the rain front. There is a chance that the track gets soft on Sunday.
If the turf turns out to be soft, you might as well consider outer post starters since horses with two digit numbers tend to do well when the track is soft unless they are front runners. In other words, inner post starters generally perform better when the turf is dry.
From a personal point of view, horses with high achievements on courses with long straights such as Tokyo, Kyoto, or Niigata are likely to perform well in Fuchu Hinba. Chukyo mile has a similar course layout to Tokyo 1800m, so perhaps that's the reason why horses running in Sekiya Kinen are also performing well.
