Kanazawa Race 10 - Race 10 - 1700
BISC WIZARD (9) In the money when 2nd last time at this track. The wide barrier shouldn't be a problem with plenty of early speed. Tracking very well this preparation. Good prospects. WHITEHEAD (4) Won with a leg in the air by 4L last time at this venue. No surprise to see a forward showing and one of the main hopes in this race. MANI HERO (10) Good win by 3/4L last start here. Key player. CHOMECHOME (5) Moderate showing when 7th last run here. Chance.

Second-up on a quick back-up after finishing second last in an A1 over 1500m at this track, beaten over 13 lengths at big odds. He was also second last at Nagoya before the break, so the recent figures are plain. The class drop helps and his 1700m record is solid, but he has to produce a much sharper finish to turn that profile into more than a place hope.

Has been last at his past two starts at this track, most recently beaten over 12 lengths in A1 grade after giving very little late. The start prior was also weak despite being near the top of betting, so trust is the issue. The class drop, proven 1700m record and H Yoshihara returning give him a route back into the placings if he can revive.

Finished strongly for third at this track last start, beaten just over a length by Mani Hero at long odds, which was a clear lift on his prior last over 1500m. He has two wins and five placings from 22 starts around 1700m, so the trip is familiar. The win record over the past year is thin, but that latest run gives him credible minor claims.

Made it three straight wins when resuming at this track, scoring by four lengths in a COND over 1400m as a prohibitive odds-on favourite. That followed a comfortable B1 win over the same trip, and his four wins and one placing from five starts at this venue underline how well he is going. Proven enough at 1700m and reunited with a rider who has a strong record on him, he sets the standard.

Comes back from A1 company after finishing seventh at this track, beaten ten lengths when the final effort was only moderate. His Urawa run prior was also plain, but this is a softer assignment and he has a solid overall record of seven wins and 13 placings from 45 starts. With a leading track jockey booked, he is capable of sharp improvement in this grade.

Second-up after finishing last in an A1 over 1500m at this track, beaten over 15 lengths after offering little when the race quickened. His previous run was better but still only sixth at big odds. He has won three times at this venue, yet one unplaced try around 1700m and current form leave him with plenty to find.

Freshened four weeks after finishing last over 1500m at this track, beaten over 17 lengths at long odds with no clear excuse. The run prior was much better, winning at this venue as favourite, and her broader recent record is strong. She has won around 1700m, so a return to that earlier form would put her in the each-way conversation.

Settled rearward and finished sixth behind Mani Hero at this track last start, beaten two and a half lengths, which was respectable without demanding support. He had earlier run third in A1 grade at big odds, working home evenly. The track-and-distance record is sound, but he will have to find more than recent efforts to win this.

Led and was only run down late by Mani Hero at this track last start, beaten just under a length over this trip. His prior fourth was also narrow, so the recent form is honest. The career strike rate is strong and he is proven at the track and distance, but barrier 9 asks a little more and he profiles as an each-way chance rather than the top pick.

Won at this track last start, beating Bisc Wizard by just under a length after being right in the contest throughout. That was a good response to an A1 fifth the week prior, where he did not quicken and was beaten seven and a half lengths. His track-and-distance figures are strong and, despite barrier 10, he brings a genuine winning profile.
