Race 6 1500m Track: |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Strong tempo primarily from Treasure Beat, Ho O Brights and G T Neige over Diamant and Saikorochan. TREASURE BEAT (7) brings the clearest winning form, having strung together two Nagoya wins in 3yo+ C1 grade. The latest was a three-length defeat of Vivien One as a dominant favourite at a very short odds-on quote, and the win prior was by a long way, so he sets a strong standard for this 1500m contest. HO O BRIGHTS (3) is the main danger on profile, with two wins and two places from seven starts at the track and distance, though he was beaten three lengths as odds-on favourite last start and needs to convert market respect into a win. G T NEIGE (4) is harder to trust after tiring into seventh, but her close third two back keeps her in the discussion. SAIKOROCHAN (1) was solid in fourth behind Bomboniere and has the track-and-trip grounding to run well.

SAIKOROCHAN
TETSUYA INOUE 5YO CHESTNUT MARE 55.0KG Worked into the race and kept battling when fourth in a 3yo+ C1 over 1500m at Nagoya last start, beaten four and a half lengths by Bomboniere. That was a clear lift on her ninth here in 3yo+ C8 when beaten over 11 lengths. Drawn to race handy from barrier 1, and her record with Junki Mochizuki gives her a sound place profile, though Ho O Brights did have her measure last time. |

ABSOLUTE
KATSUYUKI IMAZU 5YO BAY HORSE 57.0KG Returned with a sound fourth in 3yo+ C9 at Nagoya, beaten just under a length by Haru Note after having the drop on the leaders and trying hard. His Kawasaki fifth in 3yo+ C3 before the break was also respectable, beaten just over four lengths when near the top of an open market. The win strike-rate this season is the concern, but he has enough recent substance for minor money. |

HO O BRIGHTS
HIROYUKI IMAZU 4YO BAY HORSE 57.0KG Yoshihisa Ozasa Finished third behind Bomboniere in a 3yo+ C1 at Nagoya last start, beaten three lengths after being sent out odds-on favourite and doing his best work late. He was also a well-supported favourite when fifth to Yumemi here two back, so there is a conversion query. Even so, two wins and two places from seven starts at this track and distance keep him firmly among the main chances. |

G T NEIGE
SHINICHI IDEUE 4YO BAY FILLY 55.0KG Toshihiko Tabata Led narrowly into the straight in 3yo+ C9 at Nagoya last start but tired into seventh, beaten just under five lengths, and there was no obvious excuse. The run prior was much better, a close third to Lillian First in 3yo+ COND when beaten just over a length at big odds. With the winning rider back and recent ratings in her favour, she can rebound if she finds that earlier finish. |

BRILLIANT GIFT
Naomi Tobe 7YO DK B MARE 53.0KG Hiroshi Yamada Back after four weeks since finishing eighth in 3yo+ C9 at Nagoya, beaten six lengths by Bellefont after settling handy and failing to quicken. The start prior was another plain effort, sixth to Mont Saint Freesia and beaten just over seven lengths when unwanted in the market. Weight relief and past track-and-trip winning form help only so much; she must find a sharper response. |

TSUKIYOZAKURA
Akiko Okita 4YO CHESTNUT FILLY 55.0KG Was safely held in 3yo+ C8 at Nagoya last start, finishing seventh to Cool Sherry and beaten just over seven lengths after only a moderate final effort. She had shown more when fifth to Bellefont here the run before, beaten four lengths after picking up nicely. The class-drop tag is noted, but being unplaced in all five starts at this track and distance is a genuine hurdle. |

TREASURE BEAT
YOSHIYUKI SAKAGUCHI 4YO BAY HORSE 57.0KG Made it two Nagoya wins in succession when taking a 3yo+ C1 by three lengths from Vivien One last start as a dominant favourite at a very short odds-on quote. That followed another 3yo+ C1 win here, when he scored by a long way from Massano. Three wins from five starts overall, unbeaten at the track and distance, and two from two with Seigo Tsukamoto make him the one they must beat again. |

LUMINOSO
KOICHI CHIBE 4YO CHESTNUT HORSE 54.0KG Ran better than the market expected when fifth in 3yo+ C9 at Nagoya last start, beaten just under a length by Haru Note despite starting at big odds. Two back he was third in 3yo+ C1 behind Yumemi, beaten just under six lengths after being unable to quicken. The overall win rate is modest, but a track-and-trip win and recent competitiveness make him a legitimate place chance. |

VEIL DE FILLE
SATORU SETOGUCHI 4YO DK B FILLY 55.0KG Taku Murakami Has been well held at her past two Nagoya runs, most recently eighth in 3yo+ C8 behind Cool Sherry, beaten just over nine lengths after settling back and making no impression. She was also seventh to Bellefont in 3yo+ C9 at big odds. A prior win with this jockey is a small positive, but she needs the race to fall her way and a better closing effort to threaten. |

DIAMANT
ENOKIYA MITSURU 4YO BAY FILLY 53.0KG Takahiro Okada Produced a much better effort when third in 3yo+ C9 at Nagoya last start, beaten just over half a length by Haru Note after tracking the speed and lengthening into a placing at big odds. Her previous fourth in 3yo+ C1 behind Yumemi was six and a half lengths away and lacked the same finish. She has track-and-trip credentials, but must repeat the latest spike before she appeals as a major threat. |

AGNES
TETSUYA INOUE 4YO DK B FILLY 55.0KG Hideki Nakamizu Finished last in 3yo+ C8 at Nagoya last start, beaten over 17 lengths by Cool Sherry after ending up a long way back. The run prior was even more concerning, second last to Bellefont and beaten out of sight in 3yo+ C9. A past track-and-trip win is not enough to offset that current form, and she needs a substantial turnaround to get competitive. |
