1000m

Comments

Has been well held at both recent 1000m runs at Mombetsu, finishing second last to Sayuribana last start when beaten over 11 lengths at long odds. The run prior was weaker again, with a tailed-off last behind Sasakin Melody after being unwanted in the market. The class drop is some help, but she is unplaced in seven starts here and must lift sharply.

Expected Settling Position: Backmarker

Comments

Comes back in trip after finishing sixth over 1500m at Mombetsu, beaten just over six lengths when near the top of an open market. Her stronger reference is the prior win over 1600m, where she beat Asteroid Mare by a head as favourite. With two wins and a placing from four attempts at this track and distance, she has the right profile to bounce back strongly.

Comments

Recent B4 form reads plainly, with a last placing behind Universal Love last start after failing to come into the race. She had also finished second last to Craft King two weeks earlier, beaten just over eight lengths at long odds despite getting the right run. Two track-and-distance wins are a positive, but her current form leaves plenty to turn around.

Comments

Arrives in winning form after finishing strongly to score by a nose at Mombetsu, having been an outside chance in the betting. That followed a third to Angel over the same circuit, and her broader profile is hard to fault: five wins and twelve placings from 24 starts at this track and distance. With strong recent-season figures and a good record with Shinya Matsui, she is the one to beat.

Worked home fairly from well back when last to Dual Career, beaten five and a half lengths, but he was never a winning factor. The start prior he was seventh behind Honeyberry at Mombetsu and could not make any headway. A past track-and-distance win gives him some base, yet being unplaced in twelve starts over the past year is a major concern.

Improved sharply third-up when third to Dual Career at Mombetsu, beaten just under three lengths after working home evenly at big odds. That was a clear step up from his second-last placing behind Angel, where he was well beaten. With 54kg, a track-and-distance win and a third-up fitness angle, he appeals as a genuine minor-money contender.

Comments

Comes off a quick back-up after finishing sixth to Best Green in a 3yo+ COND at Mombetsu, beaten a long way when unwanted in the market. Before that he was last behind Honeyberry, more than 10 lengths away at huge odds. The class drop is only a minor offset, and his three unplaced attempts at this track and distance underline the task.

Comments

Has not fired in two runs this campaign, most recently finishing second last to Win Tolkien over 1600m at Mombetsu and beaten out of sight. He was also eighth behind Honeyberry here the run prior after being unwanted in the market. His overall place record is fair, but the back in trip and recent margins keep him in place-only territory.

Expected Settling Position: Off Pace

Comments

Did make some late ground from a long way back when sixth to Dual Career, beaten five lengths, but the result never looked likely. His previous second-last placing behind Honeyberry was another plain effort at big odds. He is a seasoned winner, yet being unplaced in all eight starts over the past 12 months makes him hard to recommend strongly.

Comments

Returns from a one-month freshening after a determined 1000m B4 win at Mombetsu, where he sat just behind the leaders and beat Success B B by a head. He had also worked home well for fifth behind Kia Kia two back, beaten three lengths, and has been respected in betting at both recent runs. The 1200m rise asks a question, but his current form gives him strong winning claims.

Comments

Resumed with a sound second to Dual Career at Mombetsu, beaten two lengths as a well-supported favourite after looming up and fighting on. His previous run at Kyoto in a 4yo+ ALLOW was below expectations, finishing 13th after starting favourite in an open betting contest. Second-up for a leading stable, he is a realistic place hope rather than a clear top pick.

Was not far away when fifth to Honeyberry at Mombetsu last start, beaten two lengths after leading and working home evenly. Her previous fifth behind Angel was less convincing, as she was in the right spot but could not go on with it. A small-sample track-and-distance win helps, though the wide draw and recent beaten-by-Honeyberry line temper the winning case.
