Race 10 1200m Track: |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Solid tempo with Karyn Heart possessing enough dash to find the front. NISHINO RAMPAGE (6) sets the standard among the selected chances after resuming with a third at Kanazawa over 1500m, beaten four lengths by Sunrise Rema in 3yo COND grade. He is still a maiden and comes back to 1200m, but that latest effort is the most reliable positive reference in this field. TORUK MAKTO (11) is the immediate threat after being sent out a well-supported favourite at Mombetsu last start and finishing fourth, beaten two and a half lengths by Boules De Neige. She has to convert that market confidence now. WILD KAGURA (1) is difficult to assess on recent margins after being beaten out of sight at Sapporo Dirt, yet the class drop and inside draw keep her in the winning mix if she can leave that form behind. NICHIYAO TSUIDE (9) resumes with plain maiden form, but this is a softer C4 assignment and she has place claims if the fresh start brings improvement.

WILD KAGURA
NOBORU YONEKAWA 3YO CHESTNUT FILLY 55.0KG Masaki Noda Returns from a two-month break after being beaten out of sight over 1700m at Sapporo Dirt, where she was unwanted in the market and never in the race after conceding a huge start. She had also been beaten over 15 lengths there the run prior. The class drop and barrier 1 give her a more suitable platform, but she must produce a sharp turnaround to justify her claims. |

DIA NO GOTOKU
KUNIO HIMORI 4YO BAY FILLY 55.0KG Koji Oka Made late ground for fifth at Mombetsu last start but was still beaten seven lengths at big odds behind Eudaemonia. Her previous fourth here was sounder, beaten five lengths after being near the top of an open market. The 35-start maiden record remains the obvious anchor, even with Genta Ochiai back aboard, so she needs more than another honest finish. |

BELIEVE THE WEST
HIDEKI KAKUGAWA 3YO BAY COLT 57.0KG Produced a much better effort at Mombetsu last start, running third over 1200m and beaten three and a half lengths by Eudaemonia despite starting at long odds. That came after an eighth here when unwanted in betting, so the improvement needs to be trusted cautiously. He has a win and two places from seven at this track and trip, keeping him in the minor-money conversation. |

SUZU OLIVE
HIROAKI SAKURAI 9YO BAY MARE 54.0KG Tatsuro Mori Has been well held at her past two Mombetsu runs, finishing seventh last start when beaten over 17 lengths by Kitano Sirius at long odds. She was also eighth here the start prior, beaten just under eight lengths after settling a long way back. Three wins at this track and distance are noted, but the current form says she needs a substantial lift. |

KANESHO RUSH
HIROTO KAWASHIMA 4YO DK B HORSE 57.0KG Was always giving away ground when eighth at Mombetsu last start, beaten eight and a half lengths by Eudaemonia after being unwanted in the market. The better guide is his previous third here, when beaten three lengths by La Villette after firm enough market respect. Still a 19-start maiden, but that prior run gives him a genuine place angle if he settles closer. |

NISHINO RAMPAGE
Fuyuki Igarashi 3YO CHESTNUT COLT 57.0KG Shigeyuki Nishiyama Returns off a five-week let-up after resuming with a third in 3yo COND grade at Kanazawa over 1500m, beaten four lengths by Sunrise Rema after working home evenly. His Tokyo Dirt run before that was poor, but this class drop and second-up profile are important positives. The 1200m trip is a query for a runner likely to be ridden quietly, yet his latest effort still makes him a key winning chance. |
6 SHOMA KANAYAMA |

KARYN HEART
HIROAKI SAKURAI 4YO BAY FILLY 55.0KG Shigeko Kobayashi Failed to finish it off when seventh at Mombetsu last start, beaten eight and a half lengths by Eudaemonia after being unwanted in the market. That was a backward step from her previous second here, where she was pipped by Riko Nick. She can race handy and has one win and four places from 13 at this track and distance, so she is better assessed as a place hope than a firm winning play. |

DAIYU SALTARE
MORIYAMA TAKEHIRO 3YO BAY COLT 57.0KG Yasuki Otomo Returns off a five-week let-up after finishing ninth in a 3yo Maiden over 1000m at Sapporo Dirt, beaten seven and a half lengths by Meiwa Kirari at long odds. Two back he was seventh at Urawa and did not quicken, and he was also beaten by Toruk Makto at Sapporo Dirt about a month ago. The class drop is some help, but the rise to 1200m still demands sharper acceleration. |

NICHIYAO TSUIDE
MASAHIRO SAITO 3YO DK B FILLY 55.0KG Mitsuhiro Fukuda Returns from a three-month break after an eighth in a 3yo Maiden at Fukushima, beaten five and a half lengths by Iron Pike when unwanted in the market. Her Chukyo run before that was much weaker, finishing last and beaten over 15 lengths. Unplaced in all three starts, she is relying on the class drop to bring improvement and profiles more as a place possibility than a win bet. |
9 YUKI MIYAUCHI |

SEIUN SAKURA SAKE
HIDETOMO NUMAZAWA 3YO CHESTNUT FILLY 55.0KG Shigeyuki Nishiyama Finished last at Mombetsu last start, beaten over 20 lengths by Eudaemonia at long odds after settling rearward. The run prior was little better, again finishing last and beaten over 15 lengths by La Villette. She is unplaced in all eight starts overall, so even with a class drop she needs a dramatic lift before she can be considered a serious player. |
10 SHINYA MATSUI |

TORUK MAKTO
NOZOMI ONO 3YO BAY FILLY 55.0KG K.Kyoei Was heavily backed at Mombetsu last start and finished fourth, beaten two and a half lengths by Boules De Neige after being right there late. That was a clear improvement on her Sapporo Dirt eighth over 1000m, where she was at long odds and only fair through the line. She is still lightly raced and has to convert the market faith, but that latest run gives her a strong platform. |
