Kanazawa Race 8 - Race 8 - 1400

ELEKTRON (1) is the one to beat on the strength of his latest second at Kanazawa, where he was beaten three lengths by Luna Cacao after being kept near the top of betting. He remains a maiden, so the winning edge is the only reservation, but this C2 looks within reach. EMBRUXAR (6) brings the most compelling winning form, having scored by seven lengths last start after an eight-length win the run prior, both here and both as a well-supported favourite. The class rise within this set-up is the test, but the profile is hard to knock. BALANCOIRE (4) has not won from eight starts and was safely held last time, yet her earlier fifth in 3yo A4 company keeps her in the discussion for the minors. SURVIVAL TRUE (9) comes off a runaway 3yo B9 win and deserves respect, though her run before that was plain enough to keep her just behind the top pair.

Lifted sharply when second in a 3yo B4 at Kanazawa last start, beaten three lengths by Luna Cacao after being kept near the top of betting. His Niigata run prior was less effective from well back over 1000m, but he did keep working late. Third-up now, with a track placing and the winning rider back, he has the right form base, though the maiden record keeps the assessment measured.

Had little impact when ninth in a 3yo+ COND at Kanazawa last start, beaten over 18 lengths after racing just off the pace and failing to launch. The prior win in a 3yo B3, when scoring from Marumo Silber by just under a length, is the counterpoint. His track record is sound, but he needs to bounce back sharply to be more than a minor hope.

Was safely held when fifth at Kanazawa last start, beaten over 10 lengths by Leesan Burning after having his chance and finding little. He was also sixth here two runs back, beaten five and a half lengths by Silver Niece. A previous track win keeps him relevant, but the 1400m record is a query, so he profiles as a place chance rather than a strong win play.

Settled back and never threatened when seventh in a 3yo+ COND here last start, beaten over 12 lengths by Transcenko at generous odds. Two back she was better fancied and finished fifth in a 3yo A4, beaten five and a half lengths by Crimson Burst. Still a maiden after eight starts, but fourth-up and back in this grade she can be included for minor money.

Dropped right out when second last in a 3yo+ COND at Kanazawa last start, beaten a long way after settling rearward and weakening further in the straight. His previous second over 900m was sound enough without threatening Trusted, beaten seven lengths. The class drop offers some help, but a 15-start maiden record says he must improve substantially.

Made it two dominant Kanazawa wins this campaign when taking a 3yo B2 by seven lengths from Suzuno Grace as a well-supported favourite. She had already put eight lengths on Shadow Cry in a 3yo B9 the run prior, so the current form is more convincing than most here. With two wins from two at the track and the same rider aboard, she looks a major winning threat again.

Has been well beaten in consecutive Kanazawa runs, finishing second last behind Leesan Burning last start and fading late after being among the outsiders. The run prior was no better, last of eight and beaten over 11 lengths by Silver Niece at big odds. He has past track-and-distance credentials, but the current form leaves him with plenty to find.

Bolted in at Kanazawa last start, winning a 3yo B9 by a long way from Sanono Thunder after being sent out favourite. That was a complete reversal from her previous seventh behind Win Love Song, where she was beaten over 11 lengths at big odds and never came into the race. The last-start win demands respect, but the mixed profile makes her more a place hope than a clear top pick.
