Kanazawa Race 9 - Race 9 - 1400
GARM CAT (7) Was agonizingly close last time at Kochi and suited at this distance historically. Jockey Tatsuya Nakajima is in form for this stable. Has been a model of consistency this preparation. Will be there at the finish. LOVE BAY (2) First run back from a break. Nice run when 3rd last time at this venue and gets a favourable barrier. Should muster plenty of early speed. Can give this a shake. GRACIANO (3) First up after a break. Finished 5th last run around here. In the mix. FABULOUS LORD (6) First up and made considerable ground when 3rd first up last preparation at Fukushima. Good to see Akihiro Yoshida is jumping on. Expecting to settle positively. Up to these.

Recent form sound. Most recently ran on from midfield; 2nd of 9 at Kochi on February 15 over 1600m, nose behind Namura Crepe carrying 57kg at $10.90. The start before that made ground from midfield; 3rd of 12 at Kochi on February 8 over 1400m, 8 len behind Speed Soldier carrying 57kg at $9.70. With a little improvement can take this out.
