Kanazawa Race 8

1500

Prize Money: $7,194

LUNA CACAO (3) Shot clear to win by 3L last run at this venue. Made it 2 wins on the trot. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Will be in the finish. SPECIAL SUNDAY (7) Came in 5th last start around here. Expecting improvement here. Masayoshi Aoyagi is a key booking. Should muster plenty of early toe. A win wouldn't surprise. I'LL CHANCE (8) Lacklustre showing when 8th last run at this track. Consider an each way bet. EBENHOLZ (1) Fairly underwhelming when 6th last run around here but drawn the rails. Could run into the placings.

Comments

Returns from a two-month break after finishing sixth at this track, beaten just under six lengths by Nagisano Balcony when he had the job ahead but kept working to the line. His previous fifth behind First Flower came at big odds and included a better finish, while 81 starts around 1500m for five wins and 16 placings show he knows this sort of assignment. The win strike-rate is modest, but he brings enough seasoned form to be a real threat fresh.

Expected Settling Position: Off Midfield

Comments

Settled rearward and made little impact when sixth at this track last start, beaten just over seven lengths by King Boulder after being unwanted in the market. The run prior was also plain, finishing seventh and beaten over 13 lengths behind Sakura D'Or despite making some late ground. He has won at this track and distance, but recent form says he has plenty to turn around.

Comments

Comes off two decisive wins at this track and looks the runner they have to beat. She beat Jiji Jet by three lengths last start after being near the top of betting, and that backed up another three-length win in B4 grade when a dominant odds-on favourite. Two wins and two placings from eight starts give her a strong profile, and her perfect record with this jockey adds to the case. The current form is clearly the race standard.

Comments

Finished third at this track last start and was near the top of an open market, but the bare placing is flattered by the margin, with Buenos Optima beating him a long way. His previous run over 900m was no guide to a winning case, as he settled well back and could not make ground when last. He has enough 1500m background to stay in the place mix, though the latest margin keeps the ceiling in check.

Comments

Was never competitive when fourth at this track last start, beaten out of sight behind Buenos Optima despite being some chance in the betting. The start prior offered little more, with an eighth behind Isamu Diamond after she had the job ahead and failed to make headway. Unplaced from 10 starts at this track and distance, she has to find a much sharper performance.

Comments

Finished last at this track last start, beaten out of sight by King Boulder, and there was no hidden merit in the run. Two back he was sixth behind Sakura D'Or, beaten over 12 lengths after being unwanted in the market, though he did pick up late. His old 1500m record is sound enough on paper, but current form is a much stronger guide and it is pointing the wrong way.

Comments

Led and was run down late when fifth at this track last start, beaten six and a half lengths by Lot at generous odds. That followed a better second behind Super Nany, where he again travelled prominently before being easily accounted for in the end. His record at this track and distance is strong, with four wins and two placings from 11 attempts, so he remains a sound place hope if he sustains the effort longer.

Expected Settling Position: Leader

Comments

Was close enough to threaten last start but weakened out of it, finishing eighth at this track and beaten over 11 lengths by King Boulder at long odds. The start prior was far better, a fourth behind Isamu Diamond when beaten just under four lengths and respected in the market. Her track-and-distance record is useful, but she must rebound sharply from the latest run to trouble the main chances.

Expected Settling Position: Off Midfield

Comments

Produced a big finish to win by a head at this track last start, beating H N Harmony despite being unwanted in the market. That result was a clear high point after a sixth in C2 company behind Heimlich Kaiser, where she was beaten four and a half lengths as an outside chance in betting. Two wins this season give her some appeal, but she still has to prove the latest win was no one-off.
