Kanazawa Race 10 - Race 10 - 1500

KENROKU CHARMANT (1) sets the standard after back-to-back Kanazawa wins, most recently scoring by two lengths as a dominant odds-on favourite. His overall record, his proven track-and-distance form and the return of Yuma Shibata make him the runner they have to beat. EL AURENS (2) is the logical danger, having placed in both recent Kanazawa runs and boasting a perfect distance record, though being beaten as a short odds-on favourite last start is the obvious query. NEO NEO MODS (8) brings less attractive recent finishing positions, but his latest 3yo+ A2 run was only two and a half lengths from Acute Girl and the class relief gives him a genuine way into the race. MINNADE GAMBARU (11) is another with a sound case, coming back from 1700m after a narrow A2 second and returning to a track-and-distance profile that reads strongly.

Arrives in winning form after scoring here by two lengths from Nine Power, travelling behind the leader before quickening clear as a dominant odds-on favourite. He had also won here over Song For You at very short odds the start prior, so the form pattern is compelling. Barrier 1 suits a horse who can race prominently, and his record with Yuma Shibata is a major asset. Hard to oppose if he holds that level.

Fought on for third behind Sunadokei here last start, beaten two lengths after leading and only giving way late as a short odds-on favourite. The previous second to Seraphinite in 3yo+ A2 grade reads well, though again he was run down late. His two-from-two record at the distance is a strong counterpoint, and he remains a winning chance if he finishes the race off more cleanly.

Worked home evenly for second to Sunadokei here a fortnight ago, beaten half a length and finishing ahead of El Aurens. That was a sharper effort after a sixth in 3yo+ A2 company behind Francorchamps, when she got too far back and was never a serious threat. Six wins and two placings from ten starts at this track and distance keep her right in the place mix.

Was last behind Sunadokei here last start, beaten over 12 lengths after looking ready to challenge but offering little under pressure. The run prior was better when fourth to Francorchamps in 3yo+ A2 grade, beaten just under four lengths, but he was still swamped late. His old track-and-trip credentials are not enough on their own; he needs a clear form turnaround.

Produced the best recent finish in this field when coming from a seemingly hopeless position to beat Hakusan Hanabi by half a length here at long odds. That was a sharp rebound from a fifth over 1700m in 3yo+ A2 grade, where she was never a winning hope but kept working. With five wins and two placings from nine starts at this track and distance, she has a genuine minor-money profile.

Has been safely held at Sonoda in two recent 3yo+ C1 runs, most recently tenth behind T O Harrison and beaten over 13 lengths at big odds. He was also sixth to Harienju the start prior, beaten seven and a half lengths after failing to finish off. The move to Kanazawa gives him a new setting, but his current form leaves him with plenty to find.

Improved to fourth behind Sunadokei here last start, beaten two and a half lengths after settling rearward, so there was at least some merit in the finish. The concern is the broader pattern, with a seventh to Francorchamps in 3yo+ A2 company at big odds two back. His record says he can win at this venue, but the current form is short of the main hopes.

Kept close enough when sixth to Acute Girl in 3yo+ A2 grade here last start, beaten two and a half lengths in an open market. The Morioka Dirt fourth before that came at big odds, so his recent form is mixed rather than poor. He has 12 career wins and has won twice in the past 12 months, and the class drop gives this veteran a more suitable platform to rebound.

Worked home well for second to Francorchamps here last start in 3yo+ A2 grade, beaten two lengths at big odds, which was a clear lift on her previous seventh behind Imperial Moat. The difficulty is turning that into a winning case, with no wins from eight starts at Kanazawa and an unplaced record at this distance. She needs to prove the latest run was repeatable.

Returns from a three-month break after two unplaced 1700m runs, most recently eighth to C'Estbon Cadessert at Sapporo Dirt when beaten just over eight lengths at long odds. He was also eighth to Keiai Agito at Hakodate Dirt, though beaten only three and a half lengths. The back in trip is a query, and being unplaced from seven starts in the past 12 months keeps the assessment cautious.

Picked up well when second to Syn Schiene here over 1700m last start, beaten just under a length in 3yo+ A2 grade. That was a welcome response after failing to finish off as favourite behind Kazu Laureato the run prior. The return to 1500m is significant given his four wins and one placing from five starts at this track and distance, making him a sound each-way hope.
