Kanazawa Race 1 - Race 1 - 1400
MEINER ETRETAT (9) Got the upper hand late when winning by a head last run around here. Suited. CAFE RENDEZVOUS (5) Finished 5th last time at the track. Capable of bouncing back. Will be giving the leaders a big start. Will go well. OCEAN DREAM (8) Finished 4th last start at this venue. May see an upturn in form. Each way prospects. GOLD REVERSE (4) Came in 6th last start around here. Should muster plenty of early toe. Could run into the placings.

Was again well held when seventh at this track last start, beaten over 16 lengths by Wave Moon after failing to run on in the closing stages. The start prior was no better in COND company, finishing last behind Whitehead and beaten over 17 lengths after giving away a big start. His long 1400m experience is noted, but recent form leaves him with plenty to turn around.

Comes off two heavy defeats and was unwanted in the market when a distant last behind Wave Moon at this track. He had already finished last in C2 grade the start prior, dropping out sharply after being in the right spot. A previous track-and-distance win is the only real positive, but the current form is too plain to recommend with confidence.

Has been safely held at both recent starts, finishing second last behind Deep Effect last time after settling rearward and making no impression. The start prior was another well-beaten second last in COND company behind Whitehead. Against that, his six wins and 13 places from 47 starts at this track and distance keep him in the place conversation if he can find his old form.

Settled prominently but faded into sixth behind Deep Effect last start, beaten over 15 lengths at big odds. He had also offered little when second last behind Shark Shiny the run before, so there is no recent finishing strength to lean on. The Yuma Shibata partnership has produced two wins and three places from eleven starts, but he must lift on current evidence.

Was below her best when fifth behind Wave Moon last start, beaten ten lengths after settling rearward, but her earlier second to H N Harmony in C2 grade reads much better. She was near the top of betting there and has built a strong record at this venue with one win and three places from five starts. With that track profile, she remains a genuine winning chance despite the latest miss.

Finished seventh behind Deep Effect last start, beaten over 16 lengths, and the run was only fair through the line. His previous C2 sixth behind Best Belle Chic was more competitive, but still left him beaten six lengths. He does have two wins at this track and distance and Noboru Asano has won on him, yet recent form says he has a fair bit to find.

Was unwanted in the market and never got into the race when eighth behind Deep Effect last start, beaten over 17 lengths after settling a long way back. She was also well held in C2 grade the run prior, so the current form is not persuasive. Her broader 1400m record and two wins with Chihiro Kaneko give her some place claims, but a winning case is harder to make.

Resumed with a sound fourth behind Wave Moon at this track, beaten nine and a half lengths but finishing strongly after looking no hope early. Her prior A3 fifth behind Garibata was also a better effort than the placing suggests, beaten only two and a half lengths after giving away many lengths. Second-up now, she has enough closing substance to be a realistic place chance.

Broke through in good style at this track last start, winning a C2 by a neck from Daiyu Advance after picking up strongly late. That followed a solid third behind Win Love Song in B4 grade, so the recent form has substance as well as consistency. Taiga Kurihara stays aboard and their record together is excellent, while one win and three places from six starts at this venue make him the one to beat.
