Fukushima Race 2 - Mdn Race
VENTO RINA (7) Finished 5th last time at Tokyo. Has the potential to improve sharply. Respect against this field. NO MONDAY (16) Did well to run into 3rd beaten by 1L last start at Hanshin and fitter for debut run. Will be there at the finish. ITERUM (11) Ran 5th last time at Hanshin. In the mix. SUN OBSIDIAN (5) Caught the eye when 2nd beaten by 2 1/2L last run at Kyoto and having second race start. Won't be far away.

Returns from a six-week freshening after being well beaten on debut at Tokyo, finishing 12th in a 1600m NEWCOMER won by Jyotis. She was close enough in the run before dropping out badly and was big odds, so the form has to lift sharply. Weight relief and barrier one are small positives, but the untried 1800m leaves her with plenty to answer.

Finished sixth on debut at Niigata in a 1600m NEWCOMER won by Wonderful World, beaten just under five lengths after settling rearward. That was not a poor starting point, but he was only an outside chance in betting and still has to show he can stretch to 1800m. The class drop helps, though others bring stronger exposed claims.

Returns from a two-month let-up after finishing ninth at Nakayama, beaten over 16 lengths by Athena Brave after having the job ahead and making no headway. Her debut on Niigata Dirt was also well below the required level, when last and beaten a long way. Race fitness is a minor plus, but her recent figures leave her hard to recommend.

Returns from a four-month spell after ending his last campaign with a seventh at Niigata, beaten eight and a half lengths by La Garriga when only fair through the line. His earlier debut at this track was also plain, fading to eighth after being close enough. With no placing from two starts, he must return in much sharper order to threaten.

Made a very encouraging debut at Kyoto, finishing second in a 1600m NEWCOMER won by Rasgueado and beaten two and a half lengths after working home evenly. He was at generous odds but handled the occasion well and has already placed on good ground. The extra 200m is the main query, but that first run gives him the best platform in this field.

Returns from a two-month let-up after being tailed off at Hanshin Dirt, where she was miles back and failed to improve behind Gaya's Samurai. Her debut at Chukyo was also safely held, finishing eighth and beaten over 14 lengths after making no impression late. Race fitness is noted, but the form is well short of what is required here.

Has built a useful profile with two placings from four starts, and her second to Handsome at Nakayama two runs ago came when respected in betting. Last start at Tokyo was disappointing, finishing fifth and beaten eight and a half lengths after again being near the top of betting. Race fitness helps, but she has to rebound to her better form to win.

Produced another honest fourth at Niigata last start, beaten just over two lengths by Stern Light after travelling in touch and working home fairly. Two back he was fourth in Open grade at Nakayama behind Star Spot, finishing off nicely despite being unwanted in the market. Weight relief and race fitness keep him in the minor-money conversation.

Returns from a three-month spell after a poor Chukyo Dirt run, where she was second last, never competitive and beaten out of sight behind Aureate. Her debut at Chukyo was better, finishing sixth and beaten just over six lengths, but she still failed to finish it off. She resumes with a sizeable task on exposed form.

Finished fourth on debut at Niigata in a 1600m NEWCOMER won by Wonderful World, beaten just under three lengths at long odds. He did not finish it off strongly, but the margin was respectable and he should take benefit from that first race experience. The 1800m is untested, so he profiles more as a place hope than a clear winning push.

Returns from a two-month freshening after a solid fifth at Hanshin, beaten a length and a half by Mariandel while working home evenly. Her Kokura debut was better again, finishing second to Francoise after working into the race nicely. With a placing from her only start around this distance, she has a genuine minor-money case.

Returns from a three-month spell after a debut seventh at Sapporo, beaten just over seven lengths by Schwarze Perle in a 1500m NEWCOMER. She was unwanted in the market and did not quicken, so there is limited evidence to build a strong case. Weight relief is useful, but the new 1800m assignment still demands clear improvement.

Returns from a two-month let-up after a fading sixth at Nakayama over 2000m, where she held a narrow lead before being swamped and beaten five and a half lengths. Her previous Nakayama third, beaten just over half a length by Cosmo Pluie, is the better guide. Two placings from two starts around 1800m make her a strong winning chance.

Returns from a three-month spell after finishing fourth at Nakayama, beaten just over two lengths by Eifer Marine when working home fairly. Her debut at Niigata was last of eight but only three lengths from Scepter'D Isle, so the bare placing reads worse than the margin. The untried 1800m is the query, but she can run into the minors.

Returns from a two-month freshening after a debut third at Nakayama in a NEWCOMER won by Famous Jazz, beaten four and a half lengths. She held a narrow lead and tried hard before being well beaten late, which gives her a base to improve from. The class drop is a positive and she is a realistic place chance if that debut fitness brings her on.
