Kanazawa Race 6 - Race 6 - 1400
PURPLE WIND (6) sets the standard after going under by just under a length to Charity Chalice at Kanazawa last start, a clear step forward from her fourth to Phantom Grace the run before. She is still a maiden, but that latest 3yo B8 effort is the most persuasive recent form in the race. SHADOW CRY (4) is the main danger after a fourth to Keiai Gillis in 3yo B3 grade and a prior second to Embruxar, although she has had market chances and is yet to convert. FEINE KRONE (8) resumes from a four-month break and comes out of 3yo Maiden company, with class relief and Taiga Kurihara giving her a case despite poor recent margins. HELIODOR (2) has been well beaten at her past two, but her previous 1400m placing keeps her in the minor-money conversation if she improves sharply.

Finished ninth in a 3yo B5 at Kanazawa last start, beaten over 15 lengths after conceding a huge start and never getting into the race. The run prior was sixth in 3yo B6 grade, again well held by Kokorozasuno despite closing off from a hopeless position. The 52kg is some help, but an 18-start maiden record and no placing from two runs at 1400m leave her with plenty to find.

Dropped out to finish seventh behind Keiai Gillis in a 3yo B3 here last start, beaten over 11 lengths after settling just off the lead and starting at big odds. Her previous run was a distant fifth behind Moon Shade, so recent form is not compelling. The class drop and a placing from her only 1400m attempt offer some support, but she looks more a place chance than a winning one.

Was never in the picture when seventh behind Luna Cacao in a 3yo B4 at Kanazawa, beaten over 18 lengths after giving away too much ground. That followed a ninth to Kokorozasuno when unwanted in the market and beaten over 19 lengths. She has placed once at this track, but two unplaced runs at the distance and plain recent efforts make this a difficult assignment.

Kept grinding from the rear when fourth to Keiai Gillis in a 3yo B3 here last start, beaten four and a half lengths after being near the top of betting. That came after a second behind Embruxar in 3yo B9 grade, so she has the right recent profile for this. She is still a maiden after nine starts and may need to be ridden for luck from back in the field, but her form reads strongly enough for this race.

Faded late when tenth behind Luna Cacao in a 3yo B4 at Kanazawa last start, ending up well beaten by 23 lengths at big odds. The run before was a distant fourth behind Moon Shade, never competitive despite finishing in that position. He remains unplaced from ten starts, including five at this track, so the class drop is not enough to make him appealing without a major lift.

Went very close in a 3yo B8 at Kanazawa last start, leading and only being run down late by Charity Chalice when beaten just under a length. Her previous fourth to Phantom Grace was sound enough, and she has now placed at this track and with Taichi Suzuki. The drop to this race suits on recent ratings, although the 1400m still has to be ticked off. She brings the clearest winning case.

Finished eighth behind Survival True in 3yo B9 grade last start, beaten out of sight after settling miles back and making no impression. He had been second last behind Moon Shade the run prior, also never competitive and unwanted in the market. With no placing from seven starts at this track and distance, he needs a dramatic form reversal to trouble these.

Returns from a four-month break after finishing last behind Beach Inn in a 3yo Maiden at Hakodate Dirt over 1700m, beaten a long way after weakening badly. She had earlier run 11th at Hanshin over 1600m, beaten just over seven lengths. The class drop, trainer change and Taiga Kurihara booking are positives, but the back-in-trip query and winless four-start record keep the assessment measured.

Was fourth behind Dinky in a 3yo B8 at Kanazawa last start, beaten eight and a half lengths after being near the top of betting and failing to finish it off. Two back she was fifth to Embruxar after making some late ground from too far back. She has since lost to Shadow Cry and is unplaced from four attempts at this track and distance, so a minor cheque looks the more realistic aim.
