Kanazawa Race 9 - Race 9 - 1500
HIGHEST POINT (1) Won by a big margin of 3L last time at the track and proven performer at this trip in the past. Drawn beautifully. Must respect in this event. PEACE OCEAN (10) Amongst the placegetters when 3rd last run around here on a heavy surface. Masaya Matsudo rates highly. Has a nice turn of foot. Will be competitive. IMMORTAL SOUL (8) Ran 6th last time around here. Tatsuya Nakajima is a key engagement. Always seems to find the line well. One at a decent price. NINE POWER (3) Ran 4th last time around here but strong performer at this trip. Will be around the mark at odds.

Comes off a decisive win at this track, looming into it before clearing out to beat Rise Taiga by three lengths as the odds-on favourite. His third to Passion Beat start prior was solid enough, and his record of two wins and two placings from four tries at this track and distance gives the form real substance. With Yuma Shibata back aboard and the campaign peaking, he sets a clear standard to beat.

Was fair through the line after conceding a big start when seventh to Layover at this track, beaten just over seven lengths at long odds. That followed a second-last finish behind Sunadokei when under pressure late, so the recent form is only moderate. He has placed twice from five at this track and distance, which leaves him as a place hope rather than a winning push.

Ran fourth behind Layover at this track last start, beaten three and a half lengths after tracking the speed and not quite finishing it off. He had led when fifth to Sunadokei the run prior, so the effort level has been consistent without landing the knockout. Two wins from five at this track and distance and a recent win over Toa Kafu keep him in the main group of chances.

Settled handy but offered little in the straight when second last to Layover at this track, beaten just over nine lengths and unwanted in the market. His previous eighth in a COND over 2000m was even more decisive, with Star Candy beating him by over 13 lengths. He has placed at this track and distance, but the recent figures leave plenty to find.

Finished last behind Layover at this track last start, beaten nine and a half lengths after having every chance to show more. The start prior at Kochi was also plain, with Yukino Maria beating him eight and a half lengths in B3 company. His overall strike rate is respectable, but current form has dropped away and he must rediscover a much stronger finish.

Held a narrow lead before being swamped when ninth to Layover at this track, beaten just over nine lengths and unwanted in the market. She was also safely held by Sunadokei start prior, beaten eight lengths after failing to close. The track-and-distance record and rider combination are positives, but recent form says she has to lift considerably.

Was fifth behind Layover at this track last start, beaten five lengths after working home honestly without ever looking a winning hope. That came after a solid win over Shinto Tsubaki, when she drove hard late and was respected in betting. The weight relief and strong record at this track and distance sharpen her claims, and she is capable of bouncing straight back.

Could only manage sixth behind Layover at this track last start, beaten just over five lengths after settling rearward and starting at big odds. The run prior was much stronger, leading throughout to beat Donryu Star by five lengths. His career record is deep and he has an excellent association with Tatsuya Nakajima, so a return to that winning form puts him right in the finish.

Was safely held when seventh to Maria Diosa at this track last start, beaten over 11 lengths after sitting just off the leaders and failing to quicken. His third to One Card Fellow two back had some merit, but even that came at long odds and six lengths from the winner. He has placed at this track and distance, yet the latest run makes him hard to recommend with confidence.

Finished third behind Ryuno Titan at this track last start, beaten five and a half lengths but doing her best work late. That was a better closing effort than her sixth to Maria Diosa the start before, when unwanted in the market and beaten ten lengths. Her record with Masaya Matsudo is useful, and she profiles as a genuine minor-money runner if she repeats the latest effort.

Ran on from a long way back when seventh to Ryuno Titan at this track, beaten just over seven lengths at huge odds. He had produced a similar late finish when fifth to Maria Diosa, but that was still just over nine lengths from the winner. The effort has been honest from poor positions, though his track-and-distance record points to a minor role at best.
