Hanshin Race 11 - The Oka Sho

DREAM CORE (14) resumed with a win in the G3 Daily Hai Queen Cup at Tokyo over this distance. Exciting filly who was too good fresh. Tricky gate but leading rider aboard and expected to measure up. STAR ANISE (15) is a promising galloper who got the prize at her only run last prep over 1600m in the G1 Hanshin Juvenile Fillies at this track. Kohei Matsuyama who has two wins when partnering stays on. Hard to beat again. ALANKAR (7) hit the line hard fresh and close to the winner. Drawn better and even fitter. Tough to stop late. LILY JOIE (13) is an unbeaten filly facing her toughest test but far too good latest and has upside. Expecting a bright start to the campaign. DEAR DIAMOND (3) shows promise. Drawn for a soft run and can measure up.

Lining up for just third start. When well in the market at debut, won by 3 len at Kyoto February 10 over 1600m defeating Smart Teana with 55.0kg at $3.20. Second-up 7th of 15 at this track in the G2 Tulip Sho (1000 Guineas Trial) on March 1 over 1600m, 2.5 len behind Taisei Vogue with 55.0kg at $17.90.

Third-up today. Resumes off a 57 day letup. First-up 2nd of 18 at this track in the G1 Hanshin Juvenile Fillies on December 14 over 1600m, 1.3 len behind Star Anise with 55.0kg at $7.20. Second run from a spell 9th of 16 at Tokyo in the G3 Daily Hai Queen Cup on February 14 over 1600m, 7 len behind Dream Core carrying 55.0kg at $2.50. Disappointing latest but Grade 1 placed two back behind Star Anise. Can atone.

Back from a spell. Finished off last preparation favourite; scored a big 4 len win at Kyoto LR January 17 over 1400m defeating Princess Moko with 55.0kg at $1.60. Won previous preparation first up favourite; scored a big 3.5 len win at Sapporo September 6 over 1500m defeating Gobadu carrying 55.0kg at $2.80. Unbeaten filly facing her toughest test but far too good latest and has upside. Expecting a bright start to the campaign.

Second-up today. Not raced for 57 days. Last start tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 1.5 len at Tokyo G3 Daily Hai Queen Cup February 14 over 1600m defeating Zippy Tune with 55.0kg at $3.40. At only start last preparation won by a head at Tokyo November 30 over 1600m defeating Corteo Soleil with 55.0kg at $2.10. Exciting filly who was too good fresh. Tricky gate but leading rider aboard and expected to measure up.
