Kasamatsu Race 10 - Race 10 - 1900

CHUWA ACE (8) reunites with Tatsuya Watanabe after scoring with ease over 1400m at this track last time. Has been in sound form this prep with a win and a placing from four starts. Should be in the finish again. IINE IINE IINE (5) was an emphatic winner last time over 1900m at this track with today's rider Tsutsui Yusuke engaged. Bold showing is expected. TAISEI RAFAGA (1) registered a strong win at this track two runs ago then last time out finished fourth over 1600m here. Steps up a level but he is worth serious consideration. KING OF THE NILE (2) improved sharply last time out to score by 3 lengths over 1500m at Nagoya three weeks ago. Must be respected.

Useful type. Last start 4th in a small field at this track on April 4 over 1600m, 2.5 len behind Kisling carrying 57kg at $11.20. Before that came from midfield and won by a neck at this track March 20 over 1600m defeating Marron Ice carrying 56kg at $14.10. Big chance after a respectable effort last time out.

Last start 5th of 11 at Nagoya on April 8 over 1700m, 4 len behind Key Jupiter with 57kg at $40.20. The start before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 8 at Nagoya on March 28 over 1700m, 1.75 len behind Sei Valiant with 56kg at $7.60. Might just find this a bit too tough.
