Kanazawa Race 3 - Race 3 - 1500
WIN LOVE SONG (4) Finished 2nd last run here and proven runner at this trip. Displays good tactical speed. Tatsuya Nakajima and Katou Kazuhiro are usually competitive when they team up. One of the major hopes. GRACE ROUGE (1) Finished 4th last time at this track. Can make a comeback and suited at this trip historically. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Drawn beautifully. Respect in this event. SUZUNO GRACE (9) Finished on top by 2L last run around here. Looks promising in this race. REIZEND REISE (6) Faded away to finish 15th last run at Hanshin and dropping in distance. First race for a new trainer. Has a great burst of speed late. Exotics chance.

Has a strong track-and-distance profile, with two wins and one placing from four starts under these conditions, and Hirohisa Tachi has won twice on her. The latest fourth reads poorly, beaten over 12 lengths after looming and not going on, while she was rolled as a prohibitive odds-on favourite in C2 grade the run prior. Proven credentials keep her among the main hopes if she finds her sharper form.

Keeps filling placings, but the substance of those results is only fair. She was third last start yet beaten over 11 lengths by Deep Effect at this track, having lacked the turn of foot to threaten, and the previous third in B4 company came with the same beaten margin. Her place record is sound, including two placings from three at this track and distance, but she must find a sharper finish.

Returns from a lengthy spell after ending last campaign with two plain runs at this track, finishing last behind Nemophila and second last behind Cinnamon Blue. Both efforts were beaten by wide margins, and he failed to run on when last seen. His overall record is modest, though he has placed once from three starts at this track and distance, so he is more a cautious minor hope than a winning push.

Comes through a sound second at this track, beaten five lengths by Wave Moon after racing close enough to have her chance. That followed a determined B4 win over Daiyu Advance when she was strong late after tracking the leader. Her record at this track and distance is excellent, with two wins and two placings from four attempts, though the latest result keeps her just below the top pair.

Ran better than the market expected last start, finishing sixth at big odds but beaten just over two lengths by Night Planet after settling back. She had been third in C2 company two runs ago, beaten a length and a half when near the top of betting. One win and six placings from ten starts at this track and distance gives her a solid base, although she looks more a place player than the main winning danger.

Back after six weeks following a tailed-off last at Hanshin over 2000m, where she led by a big margin before compounding badly. The run prior at Kokura was also well held in a Mdn, beaten over 12 lengths after settling rearward. She has not raced at around 1500m before and now joins Kazuya Ibi, so there is some new context, but she remains a speculative outside chance.

Was last at this track a couple of weeks ago, beaten over 18 lengths by Luna Cacao after settling rearward and making no late impression. The previous second in C2 grade was better, but she was still beaten seven lengths after leading and being claimed. With no wins from 23 starts and only four placings from 19 attempts around this trip, she has a fair bit to turn around.

Found the task beyond her last start, finishing eighth at this track and beaten over 15 lengths by Luna Cacao despite sticking on mildly from a difficult position. Her previous third in A3 grade was more encouraging, coming from a long way back to get into the frame at odds. Still, she is yet to win from 20 starts and has no placing from two starts at this distance, so improvement is required.

Comes in off the right last-start win, scoring by two lengths in C2 grade at this track as an odds-on favourite and keeping finding with something in reserve. He had been second in B2 company the run prior at big odds, so the current form line has real substance. One win and three placings from six starts at this track and distance, plus Taiga Kurihara's strong record on him, makes him the horse they have to beat.
