Race 11 1400m Track: |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Plenty of pace from Regina Kazu, Peace Blossom and Bear K matching motors ahead of Fold In. ON BAIT (4) sets the standard after consecutive Kasamatsu wins, the latest by three lengths as a heavily supported odds-on chance, and her two-from-two record both at the track and at the distance gives the form a very solid shape. SATSUKI QUANTUM (2) is the main danger on her eight-length win here a fortnight ago, though she was beaten five lengths by On Bait the run prior, so she still has a margin to bridge on that direct line. QUATRE BLANCHE (7) brings different form, having run fourth in a 2yo Open over 1800m at Sapporo after winning at Mombetsu, and the drop back to 1400m is the main query. NINE SYMPHONY (8) earned respect with a last-start Kasamatsu win over this trip, but On Bait had him well covered two back, making him more a contender if the recent improvement is genuine.

KICK OUT
HIROYOSHI KAWASHIMA 2YO CHESTNUT COLT 56.0KG Finished strongly to win by just under a length at Kasamatsu last start, beating Shutter Chance in a small field on good ground. That was a clear rebound from his previous run when sixth to On Bait here, beaten over 19 lengths after being near the top of betting. Barrier 1 gives him every chance to hold a handy spot, but the On Bait form line leaves him looking a place hope rather than a clear winning threat. |

SATSUKI QUANTUM
KYOICHI ITO 2YO CHESTNUT FILLY 55.0KG Dominated at Kasamatsu last start, winning by eight lengths as favourite after being well in front and keeping going. She had been third to On Bait here the start before, beaten five lengths when near the top of betting, so the rematch remains the measuring stick. Her track-and-distance record with Soichi Kato aboard reads well, and she has the right profile to make the favourite work. |

PEACE BLOSSOM
YOSHINAGA OHASHI 2YO GREY FILLY 55.0KG Worked home evenly for second to Satsuki Quantum at Kasamatsu last start, but the beaten margin was eight lengths and she did not put pressure on the winner. Her debut win here over 800m was sharper, arriving late to beat Trueno as a well-supported favourite. Still two from two for the place, but she needs to lift off that latest margin to be more than a minor-money player. |

ON BAIT
MASAYOSHI GOTO 2YO CHESTNUT FILLY 55.0KG Has put two Kasamatsu wins together in convincing style, most recently scoring by three lengths as a heavily backed odds-on chance after quickening clear with plenty in hand. She had led throughout to beat Lacrime by four lengths the start prior, and her two wins from two starts at this track and distance underline the strength of the set-up. Clear benchmark on recent exposed form. |

REGINA KAZU
HIROSHI SASANO 2YO CHESTNUT FILLY 55.0KG Was third at Kasamatsu last start but finished tailed off behind Gifuno Oumasan after starting near the top of betting, so the placing flatters the bare result. The run prior was much better, leading to win by five lengths as a prohibitive odds-on favourite. Her record here is tidy, yet the latest margin demands a sizeable rebound before she can trouble the main chances. |
5 SEIGO TSUKAMOTO |

TRUENO
YUYA GOTO 2YO BAY FILLY 55.0KG Filled second again at Kasamatsu last start but was well beaten by 30 lengths behind Gifuno Oumasan, with the long odds reflecting the task. Her debut second to Peace Blossom over 800m was far more competitive, beaten half a length after being respected in betting. She has placed in both starts, though the latest margin makes it hard to push her beyond an outside minor chance. |

QUATRE BLANCHE
HIROSHI SASANO 2YO CHESTNUT FILLY 56.0KG Masanori Kohama Returns from a five-week let-up after finishing fourth in a 2yo Open over 1800m at Sapporo, beaten ten lengths at big odds behind Der Glanz. Before that she led and won by a neck at Mombetsu over 1100m, so she brings broader race experience than many here. The return to 1400m is the query, but her overall record is strong enough to rate as a serious winning chance. |

NINE SYMPHONY
YUYA GOTO 2YO CHESTNUT COLT 56.0KG Broke through at Kasamatsu last start over this distance, coming from a rearward position to win by a length and a half in an open market. That was a strong turnaround from his previous fourth to On Bait here, where he was beaten over 15 lengths after settling back at big odds. The recent win gives him legitimate claims, but he still has to prove he can repeat it against sharper rivals. |
8 HOSOKAWA SATOSHI |

FOLD IN
T TAGUCHI 2YO CHESTNUT FILLY 56.0KG Returns from a five-week let-up after finishing ninth at Mombetsu over 1200m, beaten over 12 lengths at long odds after settling prominently and coming under pressure late. She had won well there over 1100m the start before, beating Layup Three by three lengths, but the rise to 1400m is now a genuine question. Needs to rediscover that earlier edge quickly. |
9 TSUTSUI YUSUKE |

BEAR K
HIROSHI SASANO 2YO BROWN FILLY 55.0KG Dropped out badly at Kasamatsu last start, finishing a distant last behind Gifuno Oumasan after being near the top of betting and failing to run on. Her debut win here over 800m was dominant as a very short odds-on favourite, beating Luxe Bonita by three lengths. That raw ability is noted, but the distance record now reads as a clear concern. |
