Kanazawa Race 8 - Race 8 - 1400
HAKUSAN HANABI (8) made it five straight wins when resuming over 1500m at this track last start, getting home by 1.5 lengths. Hard to deny on recent efforts. MY LOVE JACK (1) turned in a solid fresh performance last start when a minor placegetter over 1500m at this track, beaten 0.8 lengths. Has a solid second-up record and will strip much fitter for this. Ready to find best form. ORA VERITAS (2) was in a different class last time, registering a dominant 4 lengths win over 1500m at this track to make it two on the bounce. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Capable of testing this field. NINE POWER (7) was in the placings again last time when 7 lengths adrift in third over 1500m at this track. Nicely placed to take this out.

Third-up today and placed third-up previously. Resuming didn't finish the race at Kokura February 7 over 2860m. Second run from a spell settled back and ran on when 8th of 10 at this track on March 24 over 1500m, 11 len behind Never Let You Go carrying 57kg at $9.90. Mediocre effort last time out but this suits.

Most recently couldn't go on with it; 5th of 10 at this track on March 24 over 1500m, 9 len behind Never Let You Go with 57kg at $9.60. The run before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 9 at this track on March 11 over 1500m, 6 len behind Sekkachi Cane with 57kg at $2.10. Can do a lot better than that last run.
