Race 1 1700m Track: |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Anticipate Aufgabe, Enten Gabi and Ekahi Lio to set a strong tempo. FULL OF POPS (12) brings the most dependable recent form into this 1700m contest, with seconds at his past two Mombetsu runs and a strong track-and-distance profile for a maiden. He also had the measure of Starry Laura and Ekahi Lio here a couple of weeks ago, which gives his case clear substance. EKAHI LIO (3) appeals as the main danger after a fourth behind Reviendra and a third to Black Tycoon, with that earlier placing showing she is close enough if the 1700m suits. STARRY LAURA (8) has been steady rather than brilliant, finishing fourth at her past two, but her consistency keeps her in the winning mix. RYUNO PIRATES (9) must rebound from a last-start failure, yet the head second to Oryza Recolte two runs back is good enough to make him a genuine threat if repeated.

MADAM EYE
MORIYAMA TAKEHIRO 2YO CHESTNUT FILLY 55.0KG Finished well held as second last behind Overcrowd at Mombetsu last start after settling rearward, and there was no obvious excuse in the run. The start prior was no better, when last behind Banshee Harpy over 1000m and unwanted in the market. She is unplaced in six starts overall and needs a major form turnaround to trouble these. |
1 SHINYA MATSUI |

| 2 | 07278 |
ISELTWALD
MASAHIRO SAITO 2YO GREY FILLY 55.0KG Settled back and finished eighth behind Ba Schnell over 1100m at Mombetsu last start, beaten eight and a half lengths at long odds. Two back she worked home fairly from well back when seventh to Ikor, but the rise to 1700m remains a genuine query. Her lone placing gives a small base, though she must find more substance late. |
2 TAKAFUMI HATTORI |

| 3 | 4434 |
EKAHI LIO
Fuyuki Igarashi 2YO DK B FILLY 55.0KG Made ground into fourth behind Reviendra at Mombetsu last start after being respected near the top of betting, and that followed a sound third to Black Tycoon when beaten just under three lengths. She has placed once from three tries at this track and distance and races handy enough to use barrier three. The trip remains the main query, but her recent form reads well for this. |
3 YUJI IWAHASHI |
|
| 4 | 77 |
ENTEN GABI
KUNIAKI SASAKI 2YO BAY FILLY 55.0KG Conceded a big start and was beaten over 11 lengths behind Alphonsina over 1100m at Mombetsu last start, despite being fair through the line. Her debut seventh to Vin Flor was also a long way from the winner at long odds. She is third-up now, but the sharp rise in distance asks for clear improvement. |
4 YOJI KAMEI |
|
| 5 | 4090 |
JUDENBURG
Fuyuki Igarashi 2YO BAY COLT 55.0KG Was never involved when tenth behind A Shin Surya over 1200m at Mombetsu last start, beaten over 12 lengths at long odds. The previous ninth to Combat Patrie over 1000m was similar, with the colt settling rearward and making no impression. Unplaced in four starts here, he needs a much stronger closing effort. |
5 RYOGA FUJITA |
|
| 6 | 80676 |
GATTO TEMPESTA
MASAHIRO SAITO 2YO DK B COLT 56.0KG Was still well back and unable to make an impression when sixth behind Ange Merci over 1000m at Mombetsu last start, beaten over 11 lengths. The run prior was weaker again, finishing seventh behind A Shin Bliss and beaten a long way. He is race fit and gets class-drop support, but his place case relies on notable improvement at 1700m. |
6 SHOMA KANAYAMA |
|
| 7 | 75258 |
AUFGABE
HIDEKI KAKUGAWA 2YO DK B COLT 56.0KG Had plenty to do before finishing eighth behind A Shin Surya over 1200m at Mombetsu last start, beaten five and a half lengths. He had earlier run fifth to Maho as one of the better-fancied runners but lacked a change of gears. The rider and stable profile are positives, yet his unplaced run at this distance keeps the outlook guarded. |
7 MASAAKI KUWAMURA |
|
| 8 | 72544 |
STARRY LAURA
MORIYAMA TAKEHIRO 2YO CHESTNUT FILLY 55.0KG Finished fourth behind Keiki Kane at Mombetsu last start, beaten five lengths after settling rearward and being near the top of betting. The previous fourth to River Luminous was similar, with no sharp change-up when required. She has placed once from four at this track and distance, so the consistency is useful, but she still needs to turn those fourths into a stronger winning push. |
8 FUMA ONO |
|
| 9 | 4428 |
RYUNO PIRATES
Fuyuki Igarashi 2YO BAY COLT 56.0KG Dropped out to finish last behind River Luminous at Mombetsu last start, beaten over 14 lengths after being in a position to strike, so that run has to be treated as a genuine concern. The counterpoint is his previous second to Oryza Recolte, where he was beaten a head. If he returns to that level, he is a realistic place player rather than one to trust fully. |
9 YAMATO ISHIKAWA |
|
| 10 | 38465 |
CARLITOS
HIROYUKI OGUNI 2YO BAY COLT 56.0KG Only battled when fifth behind Keiki Kane at Mombetsu last start, beaten seven and a half lengths after sitting just off the pace and being unwanted in the market. Two back he was sent out favourite but managed only sixth behind Reviendra. A prior placing with Manato Kurosawa is a small positive, though he needs to regain market confidence. |
10 MANATO KUROSAWA |
|
| 11 | 32576 |
LIVE YOUR DREAM
HIDEKI KAKUGAWA 2YO BAY COLT 56.0KG Was only fair through the line when sixth behind Keiki Kane at Mombetsu last start, beaten eight lengths as an outside chance in betting. The prior seventh to Black Tycoon also disappointed after he was sent out favourite. His overall record is stronger than many here, with three placings from seven and two at this track and distance, but he must finish off better. |
11 GENTA OCHIAI |
|
| 12 | 62622 |
FULL OF POPS
YOSHIMI YANAGIZAWA 2YO CHESTNUT COLT 56.0KG Comes off consecutive seconds at Mombetsu, most recently behind Keiki Kane when beaten three lengths in an open market. The start prior was stronger again, finishing second to Black Tycoon and beaten just under a length after working home evenly. He has placed three from four at this track and distance and beat Starry Laura and Ekahi Lio recently, making him the most reliable winning option. |
