Caterpillar's Murmur
Paradise for Trailers
(FRI) January 17th, 2025
8:14 p.m. Checking out the result of the barrier draw. Hmmm. The front runners have mostly concentrated in the inner posts. Depending on how Touchwood moves, the pace might get tight.
Even if the first half didn't get so tight, it's highly likely to be required long-lasting speed and stamina. The results of the past three years back that up since five out of nine high performers were shortening their distances, which means they had been enhanced of their stamina. Year 2021 could be thought as an exception as the top three finishers were all from either from a same distance race or a shorter one however, the level of the competitors this year weren't that high with four of them over seven years old.
Although we are in for some rain in Tokyo from Sunday afternoon, Chukyo seems to be clear over the weekend. So I guess wouldn't have to worry about front runners holding out till the finish line. Hopefully, it would be a paradise for trailers.
The End
