Comments

Has the track-and-trip background to command some respect, with four wins and 14 places from 36 starts over this course and distance, but the recent form is poor. Finished second last in a 3yo+ A4 at Nagoya last start, well beaten by Sabu Ryu Shin and unwanted in the market. The Kanazawa run prior was also plain, so a major lift is required.

Expected Settling Position: Off Midfield

Comments

Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing second last in a 3yo+ C1 at Kawasaki, beaten over 12 lengths by Dateotoko and unwanted in the market. The start prior over 900m was no better, making no impression from the rear and beaten over 11 lengths. Unplaced in seven runs over the past 12 months, she must improve sharply.

Comments

Kept to the task when sixth at Nagoya last start, beaten eight and a half lengths by Noble Act after being unwanted in the market. His prior third over 2000m in a 3yo+ B1 was sound enough at long odds, and the return to 1500m is supported by one win and one place from four tries here. He also holds a recent edge over Grass Vision, keeping him firmly in the winning discussion.

Comments

Recent Nagoya form leaves him with plenty to find. Finished last behind Noble Act two weeks ago, well beaten at long odds after settling rearward, and the previous sixth in a 3yo+ A4 was still beaten over 13 lengths by Sabu Ryu Shin. One win from seven at this track and distance is a small positive, but current form is the clear concern.

Comments

Has been safely held at both latest outings and the Nagoya record adds another query. Finished tenth here last start, beaten over 16 lengths by Noble Act after giving away a big start, and was last at Kanazawa over 1700m the run prior. She has six career wins, but remains unplaced from five starts at this track and must lift.

Comments

Improved when fourth in a 3yo+ B1 at Nagoya last start, beaten six and a half lengths by Aster Ruthenium after picking up nicely in the straight. The 2000m run prior looked less suitable when he lacked a change of gears, so coming back to this trip helps. One win from four at the track and distance gives him a case, though Wakagimi has a recent head-to-head advantage.

Comments

Second-up after a plain return at Nagoya, finishing ninth behind Noble Act and beaten over 14 lengths after settling too far back to threaten. His previous start before the break was far better, a Kasamatsu third in 3yo+ A5B3 when beaten two and a half lengths by Windmuhle. That gives him a place chance, but he needs to bridge a clear fitness and form gap.

800m - 1400m

Comments

Comes through two even but unspectacular eighth placings, most recently at Kawasaki when beaten just over six lengths by Ari Happy at long odds. The Urawa run prior had some late work from well back without threatening. He does own one win and two places from eight tries at 1500m, so the distance gives him a minor-money profile rather than a strong winning case.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield

850m - 1200m

Comments

Arrives third-up after a better run at Mizusawa, finishing third in a 3yo+ B1 over 850m when beaten three and a half lengths by Tiberius. He had been well beaten over 1200m at Morioka Dirt before that, but three wins and one placing from seven starts this season show he retains form. The rise to 1500m is the major question, despite his honest recent profile.

1400m - 1700m

Comments

Comes in chasing three straight after a determined 3yo+ B1 win at Nagoya, beating Sayahime by just under a length when near the top of an open market. The prior B7 victory over Isabelle Soleil showed she could also finish off strongly, so the form pattern is attractive. She races handy enough to use her condition, and if she sees out 1500m cleanly she sets the standard.

Comments

Recent performances make it hard to build a positive case. Finished second last at Nagoya two weeks ago, beaten a long way by Noble Act at long odds after making no impact from well back. The run prior in a 3yo+ A4 was also well held, beaten over 15 lengths by Sabu Ryu Shin. With no placing from four Nagoya starts, she needs a significant revival.

Comments

Has a better overall profile than her last-start margin suggests, with three wins and six places from 21 starts and one win from two tries at this distance. Even so, she was eighth in a COND at Nagoya last time, beaten over 11 lengths by God Baroque, and had been nine lengths from Bol in 3yo+ A2 grade prior. The distance keeps her in the place mix if she rebounds.
