Fukushima Race 9 - Nihommatsu Tokubetsu

UPPER WATER (5) Resuming after a spell. Rocketed home when winning last time at this venue. Looks to be value. BANG ON TIME (9) Resuming after a spell. Displayed a good turn of foot when winning last time at Nakayama and form has been improving over recent runs. Capable of forward showing and can be competitive. SATONO KAIROS (1) Racing fresh today after a break of 26 weeks. Fought on gamely when winning by a head last start at Sonoda and gets the perfect alley. Genuine winning chance. ROUGE ASTREA (16) Resumes after a break. Had a comfortable win by 6L last start at Morioka. Winnable race.

Returns from a lengthy spell with a perfect three-from-three record, all built around C2 wins at Sonoda over 1400m. He led and held Tamba Azuki by a neck last start after being sent out near the top of betting, following an odds-on win there the run prior. The unbeaten profile is respected, but he now faces a class rise and has not raced at around 1800m before, so this is a much sterner test of his credentials.

Resumes after three months off following a plain sixth at Sapporo, where he was unwanted in the market and beaten six and a half lengths by Hayabusa Sakichan. His previous Sonoda second behind Iskios reads better, and the broader record of three wins and five places from 14 starts is sound, but he has to produce a sharper performance than that latest effort to trouble the main chances.

Returns from a four-month break after being second last at Hakodate, beaten just over nine lengths by Dogwood when unwanted in the market and never in the picture. His prior second at this track over 2000m was much stronger, and he has one win and one place from two starts at this venue. The concern is his 1800m record, with no wins or placings from five tries around the trip.

Comments

Worked home into fifth first-up at Niigata, beaten just under five lengths by G T Meteor after settling rearward and starting unwanted in the market. That was a better showing than her second-last there the run prior, and she is one win and two places from six starts at this distance. The first look at this track adds a small query, but fitter now and rated highly on time, she is a genuine winning player.

Returns from a five-month break after breaking through at this track in a Mdn, beating Popola Vista by a length as favourite after fighting strongly late. She had also been close at this venue the run before, finishing fourth and beaten just over a length by Meiner Qualia at generous odds. Proven at the track and distance, she brings a neat profile for minor money if ready to go fresh.

Resumes after four months off following two similar Kokura thirds, each beaten just under two lengths after leading and being claimed late. She was an outside chance in the betting last start and unwanted the run prior, so the market has not been fully convinced. With one win and two placings from 11 starts around 1800m, she looks honest enough to hold a place hope rather than a strong winning profile.

Returns from a lengthy spell after an excellent debut win at Nakayama, where she was unwanted in the market but settled rearward and finished over the top to beat Yamanin Alexis by just under a length. That sole race start showed a strong turn of foot and she remains open to far more improvement than most of these. The 1800m is unproven, but her upside and winning debut make her the horse they have to beat.

Resumes after three months off with strong late-campaign form, having been beaten a neck by Haru Frontier at Sapporo after letting down nicely. He was also third there a week earlier, beaten a head after tracking the speed and lengthening into the finish. His record is more place-heavy than win-heavy, but one win and five placings at this distance keep him right among the main chances.

Resumes after three months off as a progressive filly who won a Nakayama Mdn last start, beating La Guairita by a neck as a well-supported favourite. She had been pipped at the post by Fuji Sun at Niigata before that, also as favourite, and her one win and eight places from ten starts underline her reliability. With five placings from six around 1800m, she has a compelling winning case.

Comments

Resumes after three months off with recent form that requires improvement, having finished eighth at Sapporo and beaten five and a half lengths by Gerberoy after only being fair through the line. She was also well held there over 2000m two back. The positive is that Daichi Shibata has one win and two places from ten rides on her, but her past-year record makes her more a place hope than a win threat.

Resumes after three months off having finished eighth at Niigata, beaten four lengths by Kishidancho at big odds and unable to quicken. His start prior on Tokyo Dirt was far weaker, ending 13th and beaten over 17 lengths after settling prominently and giving little late. A ¥35.2m purchase, he has one win from five starts overall, but the current figures leave him with plenty to find.

Resumes after two months off and is second-up after a ninth at Nakayama, where he was beaten just over five lengths by Smile Curve and did not quicken at long odds. His prior Sonoda C2 win as odds-on favourite was decisive, beating Starry Song by two and a half lengths, and three wins from six starts this season is a useful base. The first try around 1800m is the key reservation.

Resumes after three months off following two heavy defeats at Chukyo, the latest when last of eight and beaten just over eight lengths by Baddeleyte after coming under pressure late. He had been ninth on Chukyo Dirt the start before and never looked a factor. A ¥25.3m yearling purchase with one win from nine starts, he can improve fresh but the exposed form is only fair.

Resumes after three months off with a track-and-distance win in the background, but his recent form is modest. He was ninth at Nakayama last start at big odds, beaten just over four lengths by Stunning View, after being last on Fukushima Dirt and beaten out of sight. One win from 14 starts overall tells the story, and he would have to lift sharply to get involved.

Returns from a lengthy spell after a Niigata tenth, beaten just under six lengths by Danon Brandnew when he settled back and made no late impression. His previous third at this track in ALLOW grade was better, and the stats are attractive: one win and two places from four at the distance, plus a win and a placing from two starts at this venue. He is capable of better than the latest run suggests.

Resumes after three months off following a dominant Morioka COND win, beating Further Away by six lengths after travelling close and letting down with plenty in hand. That came after a poor Hakodate Mdn run when beaten over 12 lengths, despite being near the top of an open market. The last-start margin catches the eye, but she now has to confirm it back in this stronger setting.
