Sapporo Race 11

The Sapporo Nisai Stakes(G3)

Prize Money: $581,372

SHONAN GALLEON (2) wasted no time getting off the mark as favourite on debut over 1800m at Hakodate two months ago. Looks promising and can measure up again. TENKA TAIHEI (8) drifted back then closed strongly to score on debut over 1800m at Hakodate seven weeks ago. Will come on following that run and looks tough to hold out again. COSMO HANAMIZUKI (4) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing third last time out over 1800m at this track. This looks a sterner test than last time but on her best form she is one of the key runners. DESERT SPIRIT (3) got off the mark over 1500m at this track last start, scoring by a nose. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Harder task ahead this time but can measure up.

Jumped as a despised roughie at debut, ran last of 8 at Niigata on August 1 over 1800m, 14 len behind Ho O Monopoly with 55.0kg at $208.10. Didn't quite do enough on debut to raise the hopes.

Was well-supported at debut, won favourite; tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 2.5 len at Hakodate on July 5 over 1800m defeating Danon Cube carrying 55.0kg at $1.30. Far too good as a hot favourite on debut. Another win is on the cards.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run ran on from midfield and won by a nose at this track on August 23 over 1500m defeating Tom Curiosa carrying 55.0kg at $3.30. The race before that 4th of 12 at Niigata on August 2 over 1600m, 2 len behind Nodus carrying 55.0kg at $6.50. Impressive win last start and is in the mix again.

Recent form sound. Most recently led but faded 3rd of 7 at this track on August 15 over 1800m, 6 len behind Der Glanz carrying 55.0kg at $7.40. The race before that won by a neck at Fukushima on July 4 over 1800m defeating Winter Breeze with 55.0kg at $17.80. Gave a sight last time. This is well within her grasp.
