Fukushima Race 2 - Mdn Race
BAKUSO SHACHO (7) Honest race when 3rd last start at Kyoto and promising career start. Producing consistent results this preparation. Winning hope. FONTANA D'ORO (3) Even though being out sprinted still placed 3rd beaten by 3 3/4L last time at Tokyo and putting a tidy record together so far. Good prospects. NIHONNO YOAKEZEYO (14) Moved ahead of some to finish 4th last run at Tokyo and will appreciate the drop in weight. Will give a big sight. LIFE IS ART (2) First up and came in 2nd first up last preparation at Hakodate. Can find a nice position from the draw. Will be down in distance. Deserves consideration.

Returns from a three-month spell after finishing last at Niigata over 1600m, beaten over 19 lengths, when she was handy enough before giving ground badly. Her debut sixth at Tokyo in NEWCOMER grade was also safely held, though she was nearer the top of betting that day. Barrier 1 gives her a kinder setup and she is lightly raced, but she has to produce a far sharper closing effort to be a serious factor.

Returns from a four-month spell after a plain ninth at Sapporo over 1500m, beaten five lengths, when she could not lift in the straight. Her previous Sapporo fifth was much better, beaten just under two lengths, and she has already placed once from two starts around 1200m. With that distance profile and a soft draw, she has enough substance to resume as a genuine winning chance.

Race-fit filly who has placed at her past two runs, most recently third at Tokyo over 1400m, beaten just under four lengths by Sonic Isle. She was second to Athena Brave at Nakayama the start prior, though never looked a genuine threat. The new 1200m task is the obvious query, but her consistency gives her a solid place profile in this field.

Returns from a three-month spell after finishing seventh at Niigata, beaten just over nine lengths, when she stayed on only moderately at long odds. Her debut sixth at this track was more respectable, beaten five lengths by Nishino Isaribi, but she has yet to place from two starts and was unplaced at her only try around 1200m. Improvement is required before she appeals strongly.

Returns from a three-month spell after an encouraging debut second at Niigata in NEWCOMER grade, beaten a length by Isukumeru after being run down late. That was her only 1200m start and she placed, so the trip is no concern. A half sister to Group 1 winner Puro Magic, she has the right profile to improve with experience and looks one of the main dangers.

Resumed with a strong second at Niigata, beaten a length by Jasper Reve, despite starting at long odds and settling rearward. That was a clear lift on his Kokura fifth, where he was beaten just under four lengths and later tied in through Bakuso Shacho. The 1200m record is only one placing from three tries, so he profiles as a realistic place hope rather than a standout winner.

Comes through stronger exposed form than most, having run in the G3 Chukyo Nisai Stakes before placing third at Kyoto, beaten two and a half lengths by Water Jade as a short odds-on favourite. That defeat was costly, but he boxed on after getting the right run and his 1200m record is three placings from three starts. Race fitness and proven trip form make him a major winning chance.

Returns from a five-month spell after a debut 11th at this track, beaten over 18 lengths by G T Maika, when she was well back and unable to make any impression. The class drop gives her a softer assignment and she was a ¥11m 2yo in training purchase, but the race evidence is thin and the debut margin leaves her with a sizeable task.

Returns from a three-month spell after finishing last at Hanshin, beaten eight and a half lengths by Luz Solar, when she had every chance in the run and offered little. Her Kokura debut fifth was also safely held, beaten eight lengths at big odds. A ¥47.3m yearling purchase, she has some background interest, but the race form must improve sharply.

Returns from a five-month spell after two fair but unplaced Hakodate runs, the latest a sixth beaten just over four lengths by La Ilias after fading late. She was fifth on debut, beaten three lengths by Agordino, and was unwanted in the market both times. With two unplaced runs at this distance, she has to find a stronger finish to lift into contention.

Third-up after a sound Kyoto fifth over 1400m, beaten just under three lengths by Meisho Spark, where he kept working to the line after being near the top of an open market. His debut fifth at Hanshin over 1800m was a pass mark from bigger odds. The first attempt around 1200m is a genuine question, but his recent form gives him place claims.

Second-up after a debut fifth at Kyoto in NEWCOMER grade, beaten four and a half lengths by Benny Barows after settling rearward at long odds. That was a sound enough starting point without being a strong winning reference. The class drop helps and natural improvement can bring her into the minor-money picture, though she still has to build on that first run.

Returns from a three-month spell after two seventh placings, most recently at Chukyo when beaten just over four lengths by La Jolla Eyes at long odds. He led in both starts but did not finish off strongly, and he was beaten by Bakuso Shacho at Chukyo. A ¥41.8m yearling purchase with some time-rating interest, but the exposed form still has to lift.

Has built a solid two-run platform, placing on debut at Nakayama from big odds before finishing fourth at Tokyo, again beaten three and a half lengths. He is third-up, carries only 52kg and has already placed at his only start around 1200m, so the shorter trip should not blunt his chance. With race fitness and recent-form strength, he looks the one they have to beat.

Returns from a three-month spell after a heavy Niigata Dirt defeat, finishing 12th and beaten over 16 lengths at long odds. The start prior at Fukushima Dirt was no better, beaten over 17 lengths after being handy enough but failing to finish off. She carries only 52kg, but three unplaced runs around 1200m make this a difficult assignment.

Returns from a four-month spell after being beaten out of sight at Niigata, where she conceded a huge start and was never in the race. Her debut sixth at this track was better, beaten six and a half lengths by Ravissant Aile, but she still found little when it mattered. With no placing from two starts, she has plenty to prove fresh.
