Himeji Race 6 - Race 6 - 1400
A SHIN KARNABON (3) is fresh from a spell of a year and did hit the frame when last resuming at Nakayama Dirt over 1200m. In a different yard now. Well-placed and looks ready to fire. PASSION PRIMA (10) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish second over 1400m at this track. Should be prominent despite the wide draw. Has a decent record at this trip with three minor placings from four tries and is a key runner. HATSUNAGI (7) went forward last time and looked a chance on the corner but faded to finish ninth over 1400m at this track. Expected to feature in the finish this time. HIGH LIFE (9) ran fourth at her latest appearance over 1400m at this track, clocking in 2 lengths from the winner. Everything points to a big run.

Form hard to fault. Most recently set the pace for much of the race 2nd of 10 at this track on February 18 over 1400m, 0.5 len behind Sunrise Pride with 55kg at $3. The start before that gave a sight but was run down late 3rd of 9 at this track on January 28 over 1400m, long-neck behind All The Rage carrying 55kg at $47.40. Another bold run is expected.
