Kanazawa Race 11 - Race 11 - 1500
LAYOVER (9) heads the list after resuming with a determined win here, beating Immortal Soul by a head, and his earlier second in 3yo+ B2 grade behind Ginza Target gives the profile enough depth to offset the wide barrier. MARIA DIOSA (2) was the most decisive recent winner, scoring by four lengths as favourite, and from barrier two she can hold a forward spot without spending too much early. DERMA SUSOBARAI (4) brings the most reliable on-speed pattern, with a win two back and a solid second last start, though the distance query keeps her just behind the top pair. ZELOSO (8) is racing honestly after consecutive seconds, including a nose defeat, and a contested tempo would bring his late finish into play. PEACE OCEAN (11) has track-and-trip substance and can be strong late, but must turn consistent minor placings into a sharper winning threat.

Back after four weeks since finishing seventh here, beaten eight lengths behind One Card Fellow at generous odds, and there was no clear excuse as she failed to finish the job. The prior fifth behind Trajectoire was better, beaten just over four lengths in a small field. Her track-and-trip credentials and strong record with Yuma Shibata keep her in the place mix, especially from an inside draw, but she must finish off more cleanly.

Produced the clearest recent statement when winning here by four lengths over Mcgillis as favourite, travelling handy before letting down with authority. That was a sharp rebound from a seventh behind Aquilone when she settled rearward and was beaten just under five lengths. Barrier two suits her on-pace pattern, and her Kanazawa 1500m record gives the form a strong base. A major winning player again.

Worked home fairly for fourth here last start, but was still beaten just over five lengths by Kenroku Charmant at big odds. His previous run also lacked punch, conceding a huge start before finishing sixth behind Graciano. The class drop and past track-and-trip win are positives, but his current pattern leaves him giving away too much start and he needs a stronger turn of foot.

Kept her form ticking over when second here last start, beaten two and a half lengths by Passion Beat after sitting behind the speed and fighting on. She had won the run prior, beating Eight Beat Letter by a neck as a well-supported favourite after leading and holding firm. With 52kg again and a natural leader's profile, she gets her chance to control the race, though the distance query remains the small reservation.

Settled back and made no real impact when sixth here last start, beaten six and a half lengths by Kenroku Charmant at big odds. The start prior was similar, finishing fifth behind One Card Fellow but beaten seven and a half lengths after again settling rearward. A class drop and returning winning rider offer some support, yet his Kanazawa 1500m record is modest and others bring stronger claims.

Back after four weeks following a second-last finish in 3yo+ A2 company over 1700m here, beaten just over seven lengths by Kazu Laureato after never looking likely. He had also been second last behind Aquilone at his previous start. Dropping back to 1500m and returning to a track-and-trip where he has won twice are genuine positives, but recent form says he must improve sharply.

Back after four weeks since finishing third behind One Card Fellow, though the six-length margin and big-odds profile temper that placing. Two back he was tenth behind Aquilone, beaten just over six lengths after failing to finish it off. He can roll forward and has placed five times from nine at the distance, but his low winning strike rate and recent margins leave him needing more late strength.

Back after four weeks after going within a nose of winning here, finishing second to Sunadokei when pipped right on the line. That followed another solid second behind Passion Beat, beaten a length and a half after settling rearward. His Kanazawa 1500m record is reliable, with two wins and five places from ten attempts, but he will need the race to unfold for a runner coming from off the speed.

Resumed with a determined win here, beating Immortal Soul by a head after a tight battle to the line, and now has the benefit of that second-up platform. His previous run, although back in October, was a narrow second behind Ginza Target in 3yo+ B2 grade when beaten a neck. The wide barrier is a factor and the trip carries some query, but he has already won at this track and distance and looks well placed to go on with it.

Finished last behind Kenroku Charmant here two weeks ago, beaten eight and a half lengths at big odds after settling rearward. His previous sixth behind One Card Fellow was also plain, beaten just under eight lengths when unwanted in the market. The class drop is noted, but he is unplaced in three starts both at the track and distance, so a sizeable turnaround is required.

Back after four weeks since finishing fourth behind One Card Fellow, beaten just over six lengths, but she did pick up nicely in the straight. The run prior was more compelling, a third behind Passion Beat when beaten just over two lengths after getting busy late. Her two wins and six places from 14 starts at this track and distance give her a solid platform, though she needs to bridge the gap to the main chances.
