Mombetsu Race 7

1200

Prize Money: $6,040

STEEL AMBER (4) sets the form standard after winning a 3yo+ C4 at Mombetsu over 1000m, beating Wright Flyer by half a length after being prominent in the market. The rise to 1200m is the main reservation, but his seven-start record of two wins and five placings gives him a solid base. QUEEN'S MONAKA (5) is the clear danger, having missed by a neck as favourite last start after going down by a nose the run prior; her Mombetsu 1200m record reads strongly without being prolific. FAWKES UP (8) has the right recent shape, winning two back then closing off for fifth behind Peptide Avance, and looks the value danger if he converts that finish sooner. UNICORN WHALE (9) is much harder to trust after two poor 1800m runs, but the class drop and three placings from twelve attempts at this track and distance keep him in the wider winning discussion if he rebounds sharply.

Comments

Has been safely held over 1700m at Mombetsu at his past two, most recently seventh in a 3yo+ C3 behind Yamanin Elama, beaten eight and a half lengths at big odds after failing to come into the race. He was unwanted before a similar margin behind Ho O Earnest. Back to a winning track-and-trip setup helps, but recent finish is the obvious concern.

Comments

Finished ninth over 1000m at Mombetsu last start, beaten seven and a half lengths behind Fingal's Cave after settling well back and making no impression. The run prior was also plain when eighth behind Port Ellen and unwanted in the market. He rises to 1200m with no placing from two tries at the trip, so improvement has to be substantial.

Comments

Worked home from a rearward spot when fourth over 1000m at Mombetsu, but the margin was still seven and a half lengths behind Katsuno Twelve at long odds. Two back she picked up fairly when sixth behind Iide Sky High. The 52kg helps and Yuta Ogawa has won on her, yet her Mombetsu 1200m record remains modest and she must find more.

Comments

Comes through the right form, winning a 3yo+ C4 over 1000m at Mombetsu last start when beating Wright Flyer by half a length after being near the top of betting. He led and just lasted, which makes the rise to 1200m the key query, though he has placed twice from two at the distance. With two wins and five placings from seven starts here, he is clearly one of the main chances.

Narrowly missed as favourite over this course last start, finishing second to Kaseno Force by a neck after closing strongly. That followed a nose defeat behind Token Gin Rock, so she is holding her form without quite converting. One win and eight placings from eleven Mombetsu 1200m runs is compelling, and another honest showing looks highly likely.

Comments

Failed to back up her previous win when eighth over this course last start, beaten just over eight lengths behind Peptide Avance after offering only a moderate finish. The run prior had more substance, scoring from Real in a 3yo+ C4, and she did beat Steel Amber at Mombetsu about a month ago. On that older line she has place claims, but the latest run tempers confidence.

1200m - 1800m

Comments

Has not shown enough in recent Mombetsu runs, finishing seventh behind June Land when beaten just over seven lengths at big odds. His previous 1800m run was much worse, last of six and beaten a long way behind Razer Bern. The class drop is some relief, but he is unplaced from four starts at the track and needs a major form reversal.

Expected Settling Position: Off Midfield

Comments

Closed off well for fifth over this course last start, beaten four and a half lengths behind Peptide Avance after looking out of contention. That backed up a 3yo+ C4 win here, where he beat Sakura Kingly by a length from a rearward position. The overall record is still light, but recent Mombetsu form gives him a genuine minor-money profile.

Expected Settling Position: Backmarker

Comments

Drops back from two testing 1800m efforts, the latest a last placing behind Telemachus when beaten over 17 lengths after giving nothing late. He had also been beaten out of sight behind Razer Bern, so recent form is a genuine concern. The counter is four career wins and three Mombetsu 1200m placings, but he is more a rebound place hope than a confident win play.

Expected Settling Position: Off Midfield
