Kasamatsu Race 4

1400

Prize Money: $7,591

REAL KENCHAN (4) got home by 5 lengths last time out over 1400m at this track. Yet to miss the frame in three starts over this course and distance. Top chance again. YAMANIN ELPHABA (3) was out of the money when resuming two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1800m at Chukyo Dirt, beaten 3.5 lengths into sixth. Beautifully placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. BELLAGIO MARCUS (1) was last at the races when he finished sixth over 1400m at Saga on June 20. Lines up today for the first time for trainer Yuya Goto. Definite top-three chance. SATULIA (7) improved sharply last time out to score by 0.8 lengths over 800m at this track two weeks ago. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat again in this suitable race.

At the latest run 5th of 8 at this track on August 13 over 1400m, 14 len behind Kasanaru Kiseki with 55kg at $57.70. Before that ran second last of 10 at this track on July 22 over 1400m, 49 len behind Summer Blizzard with 55kg at $354.60. Better than that recent lacklustre performance suggests.

Racing well recently. Returns from a 33-day let-up. At the latest run favourite; scored a big 5 len win at this track on July 24 over 1400m defeating Jump Street carrying 57kg at $1.50. The race before that 3rd of 12 at this track on July 8 over 1400m, 1.3 len behind Aristocrat with 57kg at $3.40. No reason he cannot build on that success.
