Hanshin Race 6 - Hanshin 2Yo Allowance
MONT SAINT GOLDEN (1) impressed last time with a 6 length win at Niigata Dirt over this journey. Should be prominent from the outset. Will give a great sight. T O GLASER (7) recorded his maiden win three back and is ready to score again after a couple of recent minor placings, the latest when third at Kyoto Dirt. Has a good association with Riki Takasugi with a run of three top-three results. Best form puts him right in this. KINDERPUNSCH (6) proved too strong two runs ago at this track. Couldn't follow that up last time out when fifth over 1400m at Kyoto Dirt, beaten 8 lengths. Has the talent to produce another win. SHIRANUI (5) pushed forward from a wide draw last time and found a forward position then knocked up in the straight to finish 11th over 1400m in the G3 Kyoto Sho Fantasty Stakes. Will find this much easier. Well placed and expected to measure up. Among the top-three hopes.

Form hard to fault. Comes off a 56 day let-up. Last start favourite; won by 6 len at Niigata Dirt October 19 over 1200m defeating Dona Schon carrying 53.0kg at $2.40. The race before that 3rd of 13 at this track on September 21 over 1400m, 0.7 len behind Kinderpunsch carrying 55.0kg at $4.20. Effortless maiden win last time and can go on with the job.

Third race start today. At big odds at debut, 7th of 16 at Kyoto Dirt on October 25 over 1400m, 6 len behind Flegrei carrying 55.0kg at $38. Last start won by 1.75 len at Kyoto Dirt November 16 over 1200m defeating Real Alba carrying 55.0kg at $10.60. Latest form makes this a pretty tough assignment.

Second-up. First-up after four months ran last of 9 at Kyoto on November 22 over 1400m, 12 len behind Tagano Aralia with 55.0kg at $112.80. Previously second-up won by 0.5 len at Kokura July 6 over 1200m defeating Nishino Meiho carrying 55.0kg at $12.20. Fitter but must improve sharply.

Third race start today. At debut, 3rd of 16 at Kyoto Dirt on October 25 over 1400m, 2 len behind Flegrei carrying 55.0kg at $10.50. Second-up favourite; won by 0.5 len at Kyoto Dirt November 22 over 1200m defeating Aster Epoisses with 55.0kg at $2.70. Better off avoiding.

Lining up for just third start. When well in the market at debut, won by a neck at Hanshin September 13 over 1200m defeating Top Attack with 54.0kg at $4.80. Second-up second last of 12 at Kyoto in the G3 Kyoto Sho Fantasty Stakes on November 1 over 1400m, 9 len behind Festival Hill carrying 55.0kg at $46.60. Big class drop for this. Solid top-three chance.

Returns from a 57-day let-up. At the latest run 5th of 7 at Kyoto Dirt on October 18 over 1400m, 8 len behind Rose Charis with 55.0kg at $23.50. The race before that won by 0.5 len at this track September 21 over 1400m defeating Smart Julius with 55.0kg at $2.50. Beaten comfortably last time out but this suits and gets chance to atone.

Racing well recently. Comes here off a 57-day let-up. Last start 3rd of 7 at Kyoto Dirt on October 18 over 1400m, 4 len behind Rose Charis carrying 56.0kg at $3.70. The race before that 3rd of 8 at this track on September 27 over 1400m, long-neck behind Persea carrying 55.0kg at $5.30. Super consistent and close to another win. Ideally placed to play a significant role.
