KOCHI   21 Dec 2025
 
GOING:

Race 1 1400m

Track:      

The pace looks even at best given a lack of early speed. REWARD PASION (1) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 1300m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. MEISHO HAYASE (8) hit the frame two starts ago at this track but ran below par last time when sixth at this track. Finds a nice race and can make amends. COSMO LUTEUS (11) is back from a break of five-and-a-half months. Raced below par at his only appearance last prep when seventh over 1150m at Fukushima Dirt. Lining up today for the first time for trainer Yuji Uchikoshi. One to consider. NOEL (7) struggled to make an impact after he gave away a big start. Can do better this time.
