Kanazawa Race 2 - Race 2 - 1500
MOULIN RADET (2) Ran 5th last run here. Can make a comeback and drawn nicely. Should muster plenty of early speed. Ticks plenty of boxes and looks like value . JOANNE'S BEST (6) Left nothing to chance when winning by 3/4L last start around here. Has early speed and positions nicely. Must respect. ROSY CANDLE (8) Looked good when 3rd last time here. Displays good finishing speed. Gets a chance to win. HANAIRO MAHINA (5) Was well beaten when 12th last time at Chukyo. Giving another chance here. First race for a new trainer. Worth strong consideration.

Caught the eye late when fourth at this track last start, although the beaten margin was still just over seven lengths and he was among the outsiders. His previous fourth in B4 grade came from well back and was much further away, so the pattern is more honest than sharp. With no wins from 16 starts and two placings at around 1500m, he is an each-way hope only if the race is run to suit.

Returns from a two-month freshening after a costly fifth in B3 grade at this track, beaten five and a half lengths when heavily supported into very short odds-on territory. That was plain, but his previous B8 win was decisive, leading throughout to beat Morono Diamante by nine lengths. Back in a suitable C2 and already a winner at this venue, he can bounce back into the placings.

Has been well held at both recent runs, finishing second last here last start and beaten over 13 lengths at long odds. He was also eighth in B8 grade two back, beaten over 15 lengths after making no impression. The weight relief and a prior track-and-trip win are small positives, but his current form leaves him with a sizeable task.

Worked into third at this track last start, but was still beaten seven lengths after starting big odds. That was at least an improvement on the prior sixth, when beaten over 13 lengths after settling rearward. She has placed four times from 13 tries at this track and distance without winning, so minor money is more realistic than a winning push.

Returns from a two-month freshening after finishing 12th in a Chukyo Mdn over 1200m, beaten just over seven lengths at long odds after sitting handy and offering little in the straight. She had also been last at Hakodate the run prior. The class drop is important and this is her first look at around 1500m, but she has to lift from an unplaced eight-start record.

Broke through at this track last start, leading and beating Meisho Barista by just under a length with the market on side. The start prior in B6 grade was poor on paper, but she did make ground late after never being competitive. With Taiga Kurihara staying aboard and one win from two starts at the distance, she has enough upside to be a major winning player again.

Finished a distant last first-up at this track, beaten a long way at big odds and offering no clear excuse. His previous run in this campaign was a fifth here, beaten just over eight lengths, which was also well short of what is required. The overall record is respectable, but he is unplaced from three track-and-distance attempts and others look stronger.

Finished strongly into third at this track last start, beaten seven and a half lengths but keeping her recent place form ticking over. She was sixth in COND company two back and never a winning hope, yet did not give it away. With four placings from six tries around 1500m and a sound record with Akihiro Yoshida, she profiles as a genuine place hope again.

Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing 11th in ALLOW grade at Nakayama, beaten six and a half lengths after working home fairly without threatening. Her Niigata Mdn run before that was also midfield, but the margins were not severe and she now finds a kinder C2 assignment. The 1500m record is unproven, but the class drop gives her the right platform to win.
