Race 9 1900m Track: |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Solid tempo expected primarily from Katsutenai Oishisa and Toshikun. KATSUTENAI OISHISA (4) sets the benchmark on winning habit, with nine wins and one place from ten starts overall and two wins from two at 1900m. He is new to Kasamatsu, but the distance record and recent Kochi wins give him the strongest profile. MICHAEL (9) is the immediate threat after leading throughout for a five-length first-up win here, though this trip is the new test. YOSARI (5) resumes with an excellent Kasamatsu record and should be handy enough from the on-pace group, while GOKOKUHOJO (8) has the closing style to be dangerous if the leaders overdo it. TSUMAMIGUI (1) is in form after a four-length win here, but also has to prove himself at 1900m.

TSUMAMIGUI
YUKIYASU KATO 3YO BAY COLT 57.0KG Produced a sharp last-start win at Kasamatsu over 1400m, coming from a difficult position to beat Fleur De Lune by four lengths. The start prior, he was third behind Michael here, beaten just under six lengths after being unwanted in the market. His current form is sound and barrier one helps the map, but 1900m is still a genuine query. A place result looks well within reach if he runs the trip. |

CATTLEYA NOCTURNE
Akiko Okita 3YO BAY FILLY 55.0KG Returns from a three-month break after finishing sixth at Kawasaki over 2100m, beaten over 15 lengths behind Pendant, when she conceded a huge start and was never in the race at big odds. Her Kasamatsu second two back reads better, although she was beaten six lengths as favourite. The class drop is some help, but she resumes needing a much more competitive effort. |
2 JUNKI MOCHIZUKI |

TOSHIKUN
ISHIBASHI MITSURU 3YO BAY COLT 57.0KG Returns from a four-month break off a Sonoda win over 1700m, where he was near the top of betting and beat Bellagio Sonic by two and a half lengths. That was a clear rebound from his previous fifth behind God Fencer, when beaten over 13 lengths from a rearward position. His overall strike-rate is appealing, but 1900m remains the key test. He can be competitive without being risk-free. |

KATSUTENAI OISHISA
MASAMITSU SAKAI 3YO BAY COLT 57.0KG Returns from a five-week freshening in excellent form, having won again at Kochi when a dominant favourite at a very short odds-on quote, beating Tosano Shujinko by just under a length after leading and finding enough. He had also led and won by a length and a half there the run prior. With nine wins and one place from ten starts overall, plus two wins from two at 1900m, he is the one they must beat despite the first Kasamatsu look. |

YOSARI
HIROSHI SASANO 3YO CHESTNUT COLT 57.0KG Yuki Ishikawa Returns from a three-month break with a strong Kasamatsu platform, having won four and placed two from seven starts here. He was fifth over 1400m last time, beaten just over four lengths by Bellagio Sonic after battling on, and had been second to Earth Judge here before that. The rise to 1900m is the main question, but his track record and strong rider-horse combination make him a serious winning chance if he stays. |

COMBAT CAP
HIROSHI SASANO 3YO DK B COLT 57.0KG Finished fourth at Kasamatsu over 1400m last start but was beaten just over nine lengths by Real Kenchan and again unwanted in the market. That followed a seventh here, beaten over 19 lengths behind Aristocrat, after settling back and failing to make an impact. He is race fit and has won here before, but the recent margins leave him with a sizeable form gap to close. |
6 IGUCHI YUKI |
|
| 7 | 53456 |
AMERICAN VICKY
T TAGUCHI 3YO BAY FILLY 55.0KG Settled a long way back when sixth behind Michael at Kasamatsu last start, beaten just over eight lengths despite making some late ground. The start prior was similar in outcome, finishing fifth behind Picasso Jasper and again beaten just over eight lengths. She has a Kasamatsu win on the record, but the step up in trip and repeated beaten margins mean she must improve sharply. |
7 KATSUTO MARUNO |
|
| 8 | 3521x |
GOKOKUHOJO
HIROYUKI IMAZU 3YO BAY FILLY 55.0KG Returns from a three-month break after a strong Kanazawa win over 1500m, making sustained ground to beat Passion Beat by four lengths despite starting among the outsiders. Her Nagoya second over 1700m before that also has merit, beaten four lengths by Curren Show after working into the race and fighting on. The 1900m is new territory, but the form pattern gives her a genuine winning case if she settles close enough. |
8 SEIGO TSUKAMOTO |

MICHAEL
YOSHINAGA OHASHI 3YO CHESTNUT FILLY 55.0KG Made a decisive second-up platform by winning fresh at Kasamatsu over 1400m, leading throughout as odds-on favourite and beating Muscat Oman by five lengths. Her previous run was also a clear 1400m win here in 3yo+ C4 company, scoring by three lengths after strong market support. Five wins and six places from 19 starts at this track is a solid base, though 1900m is the fresh challenge she must answer. |
9 HIROSHI OHARA |

A SHIN REFINE
HIROSHI SASANO 3YO CHESTNUT FILLY 55.0KG Katsuhiko Hirai Finished last at Chukyo in a 3yo+ ALLOW last start, well beaten by 23 lengths behind Cervara after settling a long way back and failing to improve at long odds. She had also been beaten over 11 lengths at Morioka the run prior when unwanted in the market. Her Kasamatsu record is better than the recent form, but she needs a major turnaround to be competitive. |

WHITE RABBIT
YUYA GOTO 3YO GREY FILLY 55.0KG Was second last behind Michael at Kasamatsu over 1400m last start, beaten over 16 lengths after settling back and failing to come into the race. Her previous fourth over 1580m here was more respectable, beaten six and a half lengths after working home well, but she has not placed in one try at this distance. Others bring stronger recent credentials. |

KAWATEN BACCHUS
T TSUNODA 3YO DK B COLT 57.0KG Resumed with a fifth at Nagoya, beaten nine lengths by Handful after having the task in front of him but continuing on fairly. The previous run was much weaker, finishing sixth over 2100m at Nagoya and beaten a long way by Astra Bianco. His overall and jockey-horse records are sound, yet the distance query and recent margins make this a demanding assignment. |
