Kochi Race 4 - Race 4 - 1400

DEEP GILDONG (3) made significant late ground last start to get up for second over 1300m at this track. Has a good record here at this journey, including five wins. Could prove tough to beat. BLACK STORM (1) met with solid support last start over 1600m at this track when fourth. Well-placed to make amends. IN HIS EYES (5) battled on well to hold second last start over 1400m at this track, beaten one length. Finds an easier assignment and can get the job done. NAMURA SWAGGER (2) was sixth in a 1300m contest at this track two weeks ago. Seiya Tatara gets the best out of this seven-year-old entire. Suitably placed so can turn things around.

Useful entire. Last start raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 6th of 9 at this track on April 27 over 1300m, 5.5 len behind Danon Justice carrying 57kg at $3.50. The start before that second last of 9 at this track on April 13 over 1600m, 7 len behind Wide Kant with 57kg at $18.40. Among the better chances.

Form hard to fault. Most recently 2nd of 9 at this track on April 27 over 1300m, 3 len behind Danon Justice carrying 57kg at $3.80. The run before that raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by 3 len at this track April 12 over 1400m defeating Radio Ga Ga carrying 57kg at $2.90. Should be right in the finish.

Second-up. First-up after three months ran last of 9 at this track on April 27 over 1300m, 17 len behind Lord Ley Line with 57kg at $100.70. Previously second-up ran last of 10 at this track on September 16 over 1400m, 16 len behind Keep It Simple carrying 56kg at $88.60. Unlikely to threaten.
