KASAMATSU   24 Sep 2026
 
GOING:

Race 7 1400m

Track:      

They look to roll along early with Momoiro Kataomoi and Teruken Ren Gray leading the charge. MOMOIRO KATAOMOI (8) brings the most reliable profile among the main chances, with consecutive seconds at Kasamatsu and a strong track-and-distance record of two wins and three placings from eight tries. The six-week gap is noted, but her recent 1400m form reads well enough for this. MO MO BROWN (5) is the danger after improving sharply when second over 1580m here, and the return to 1400m is a positive given he has won at this course and distance. A SHIN JUMBLE (2) has the best established Kasamatsu 1400m record of this group and was beaten just under a length first-up, though he still has to prove that was not a one-off rebound from a poor B1 run. SUSSAN FIRST (6) is more a place-oriented inclusion, with three wins at the track and trip but recent margins that leave him needing a sharper finish.

YUKIYASU KATO
4YO  BAY  FILLY 55.0KG

Dropped out sharply after leading at Kasamatsu last start, finishing second last in a 3yo+ C1 and beaten over 14 lengths as favourite. That is a clear concern, especially with no obvious excuse, although the start prior she beat Yotsuyakaidan by a length and a half in 3yo+ C8 after being heavily supported. Her best is good enough for a minor hope, but trust is the issue now.

HIROSHI SASANO
4YO  CHESTNUT  HORSE 56.0KG

Returned with a solid second at Kasamatsu in 3yo+ C5, fighting hard after having a slight advantage and going under to Ric Noir by just under a length. The form before the break was poor when last in 3yo+ B1, but his four wins and four placings from 16 at this track and distance give him a sound base. A repeat of the fresh run puts him right in the money.

YOICHI KURIMOTO
4YO  GREY  FILLY 56.0KG

Could only finish fifth behind Cosmo Fleur at Kasamatsu last start, beaten seven and a half lengths after giving away too much start and never really threatening. Her previous run was far better, beating Holo Kiki by a length and a half in 3yo+ C4 with some market support. The class drop and rider record help, but she looks more dependable as a place chance than a win anchor.

Teruo Kuwada
Offered little after being in touch at Kasamatsu last start, finishing sixth in 3yo+ COND and beaten over 11 lengths when unwanted in the market. He had battled on more respectably behind Miraculum two runs ago, beaten just over four lengths, but the latest run was a backward step. Even with class relief and the winning rider back, he must find more.

TSUTSUI YUSUKE

MASAHARU FUJITA
4YO  BAY  HORSE 57.0KG

Improved sharply at Kasamatsu last start when second to Good Romance over 1580m in 3yo+ C4, working home evenly after starting an outside chance in betting. That was a clean rebound from being last behind Miraculum two runs ago, and the return to 1400m is a positive given he has won at this track and distance. Still has a modest overall strike rate, but this setup gives him a live winning case.

MASAYOSHI GOTO
4YO  GREY  HORSE 57.0KG

Was only fair through the line when fifth behind Wornitz at Kasamatsu last start, beaten eight and a half lengths at big odds. He had been sixth behind Miraculum two runs earlier and again was safely held, so recent form is not compelling. The counterpoint is a genuine 1400m record here, with three wins and four placings from 32 attempts, which keeps him in the minor-money frame.

HIROYOSHI KAWASHIMA

Yoshio Matsumoto
Has been well beaten in consecutive Kasamatsu runs, finishing last behind Wornitz most recently and beaten over 15 lengths after never looking likely. The run prior was worse over 1580m, when never competitive and beaten out of sight. A class drop is not enough on its own, and he needs a major turnaround to trouble these.

Tomohiro Matsumoto
Returns from a six-week let-up after another strong Kasamatsu 1400m placing, running second to Klingler and beaten a length and a half when near the top of betting. She had also filled second behind Convex two starts back at long odds, so the recent pattern is sound. With two wins and three placings from eight at this track and distance, she brings the most convincing race profile.

YOSHINAGA OHASHI
4YO  BROWN  HORSE 58.0KG

Made some late ground without ever looking a winning threat when sixth behind Bellagio Channel at Kasamatsu last start, beaten eight and a half lengths at big odds. That followed a last placing behind Always Kizuna, beaten over 17 lengths after settling back and making no impression. Past wins at this venue help only slightly; his current form leaves plenty to repair.
