GOING:

Race 2 1300m Track:
The race lacks early speed so doubt they will go too hard. FUKU MOANA (9) brings the clearest upward profile among the main chances, having finished second to Nishino Nasturtium at Saga last start, beaten a length and a half after picking up well late. Her previous fourth to Cosmo Roma also reads soundly enough for this grade, and the 51kg impost keeps her right in the race. KAPARAMIP (5) has the best track-and-distance credentials of the quartet, with two wins and one placing from seven attempts, though she must rebound from a fair sixth behind Habsburg. PAULINO (6) improved sharply when fourth to Turtle In May at big odds and has already won over this course and distance, making her a genuine danger if she holds that level. NEUE MUSIK (8) has been below his best lately, but a fair closing seventh to Habsburg and a solid distance record leave him as the next winning hope rather than a runner to dismiss lightly.
1	00044	SUNRISE PROMISE SHIZUO OSHIMA 4YO CHESTNUT HORSE 56.0KG Takao Matsuoka Has filled fourth at both recent Saga runs but was still beaten nine and a half lengths by Gleam Star last start after settling rearward. The run prior had a little more merit when he picked up nicely late behind Mrs Jones, though the margin was still just over eight lengths. With no placing from two starts here and a distance query remaining, he needs more than minor improvement to trouble the main hopes.	1 TSUBASA KAMO
2	78607	BRILLO DORADO HISASHI MATSUSHIMA 5YO BROWN HORSE 56.0KG G1 Racing Co. Ltd. Was never a factor when seventh in a 3yo+ C1 over 920m at Nagoya last start, beaten over 10 lengths by Sembi Toryo at long odds. His previous run was no better, finishing last over 1700m after tracking the speed and failing to quicken. The class drop offers some relief, but the rise back to 1300m and plain recent form make this a difficult assignment.	2 LEO NAKAYAMA
3	x0009	DAIYU HAMILTON HIROFUMI ISHIKAWA 5YO DK B GELDING 56.0KG Yasuki Otomo Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing second last in a 3yo+ C7 over 1500m at Nagoya, beaten over 15 lengths by Neo Alitheia after being in touch early and offering little. He had also been beaten over 18 lengths by Toppi Go in a 3yo+ C6 the start before. A leading jockey goes on, but his current form gives little confidence until he shows a stronger response.	3 SHINSUKE ISHIKAWA
4	20669	KAORICHAN KINYA KITAMURA 4YO DK B FILLY 54.0KG Was safely held when ninth behind Turtle In May at Saga last start, beaten nine and a half lengths after failing to make ground from a difficult spot. She had also been only fair when sixth to Kashino Freude the run before. The return of a rider who has placed on her four times is some help, but eight unplaced runs at the track and distance temper the case.	4 TORU TAKEYOSHI
5	19226	KAPARAMIP TOSHIMITSU KUNICHI 4YO BAY FILLY 54.0KG Mill Farm Co. Ltd. Can be assessed more kindly than the bare last-start sixth behind Habsburg, where she was beaten just under five lengths and only fair late. Her second to Nobu Nori O two runs back came when respected near the top of an open market, and she has two wins and one placing from seven starts at the Saga 1300m. That proven profile keeps her high in calculations if she rebounds.	5 TAKUTO DEMIZU
6	82704	PAULINO YUKITO SANKODA 3YO DK B FILLY 54.0KG Improved noticeably when fourth to Turtle In May at Saga last start, beaten just over five lengths at big odds after racing right there before peaking late. That was a clear lift from her previous effort behind Oerstead, where she was last and beaten over 18 lengths despite market respect. A course-and-distance win from three tries gives her a genuine platform if she holds the latest form.	6 YUKIHITO NAGATA
7	473x9	KANADE RIDE TADAYOSHI IKEDA 3YO DK B COLT 56.0KG Kazuhiko Kameoka Resumed with a plain ninth behind Habsburg at Saga, beaten over 11 lengths after conceding a huge start and never getting into the race. His earlier third in a 3yo COND behind Lily Bennett was sound enough at long odds, and the overall track-and-distance record is useful from a small sample. Even so, he must improve second-up before that older form becomes persuasive.	7 HIROKI YAMASHITA
8	91777	NEUE MUSIK MICHITAKA DOI 4YO CHESTNUT HORSE 56.0KG G1 Racing Co. Ltd. Worked home fairly from a long way back when seventh to Habsburg at Saga last start, beaten just over five lengths at long odds. His previous seventh behind Kashino Freude was weaker, as he was close enough but dropped out late. One win from two starts at the distance and one from four at this track support a place case, though he needs a cleaner finishing effort to win.	8 TAKU KAWASHIMA
9	00942	FUKU MOANA KATSUTOSHI TESHIMA 3YO DK B FILLY 51.0KG Produced the strongest recent run in the field when second to Nishino Nasturtium at Saga, beaten a length and a half after picking up well late. She had earlier finished fourth to Cosmo Roma, beaten just over three lengths, so the form is trending the right way. With 51kg again and a placing from two tries at both the track and trip, she sets a clear benchmark despite the wide draw.	9 CAMELLIA SOUTA
10	74563	EULACHACHA MICHITAKA DOI 4YO GREY HORSE 56.0KG Mill Farm Co. Ltd. Ran third to Gleam Star at Saga last start, beaten seven lengths at big odds after tracking the speed and working home only fairly. The run before was competitive enough when sixth to Oerstead, beaten just under five lengths after giving away a big start. His track record of one win and two placings from eight starts is useful, but the winning edge still looks limited.	10 NAOHITO TANAKA
11	71990	WIN DANCE TIME YUKITO SANKODA 6YO BAY MARE 51.0KG Win Co. Ltd. Has been well beaten at both recent Saga runs, finishing second last behind Habsburg last start and beaten over 14 lengths after settling rearward. The start prior was similar, second last to Kashino Freude and beaten over 12 lengths when unwanted in the market. The light weight is a small positive, but one placing from 20 track-and-distance runs underlines the task.	11 GOTO MUSASHI
