Kanazawa Race 10 - Race 10 - 1500
FAMOUS GRACE (9) Placed 3rd last time at this venue. Has very good closing speed. Akihiro Yoshida does know the horse very well. This field suits. MEISHO GORUSHI (4) Moderate showing when 10th last time here. Won't be far away during the run. Tatsuya Nakajima is a bonus. Serious player. KUMASAN ARIGATO (8) Disappointing outing when 10th last run at this track. Will be positive in the run early. Respect against this field. NOBUTOMO (2) Amongst the placegetters when 3rd last run at this venue on a heavy surface and gets a favourable draw. Likely to be well placed early. Performing impressively this campaign. Hard to knock and looks a nice each way proposition.

Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing sixth in a C1 over 800m at Urawa, beaten five lengths at big odds after giving away a start and only working home fairly. She had been seventh at Kawasaki before that, also unwanted in the market. The class drop is a help, but her recent profile leaves her with plenty to find against more convincing 1500m types.

Went very close at this track 10 days ago, finishing third to Sun Ship and beaten just over half a length after being pipped late. That was a sharp return to form after a well-held second-last here, and his record at this track and distance is a major asset: two wins and five placings from nine starts. With Kenshin Uozumi back aboard, he looks a strong winning chance.

Was safely held when sixth at this track last start, beaten over 14 lengths by Unuboreyasan after settling with plenty to do and never looking likely. The start prior was better, finishing fourth to Estimate after making late ground from an impossible position. Winning remains the query, but that earlier finish gives him a realistic minor-money hope.

Has been well beaten at his past two, finishing last to Flash Freeze 10 days ago after settling just off the speed, and sixth to Meisho Hyuga before that when officially a distant last. His overall record around 1500m is far stronger than those runs suggest, and Tatsuya Nakajima has a good record on him, but he must turn recent form around sharply.

Could not build on his good run two back when eighth behind Luminous Flux at this track last start, beaten eight and a half lengths at big odds after settling rearward and making no impression. His previous second to Pine Peach, beaten half a length, is the run that keeps him in calculations. Proven at this track and distance, he is a place hope if he rebounds.

Has been finishing around the mark without winning, most recently fifth to Luminous Flux at this track and beaten two and a half lengths despite being unwanted in the market. He was also fifth behind Nyan Taro two runs back after making late ground from a difficult spot. His 1500m body of work is sound and the recent win over Nobutomo adds substance to his place claims.

Returns from a five-week freshening after a poor tenth at this track, beaten over 15 lengths by Kitano Dia when giving away a big start and never getting into the race. Her previous second to Divertision was much better and came when near the top of betting, while her track-and-distance record includes plenty of placings. Even so, she has to recapture that earlier form.

Has gone off sharply in two runs since winning form, finishing last to Unuboreyasan at this track 10 days ago when well beaten and unwanted in the market. She was also beaten over 11 lengths by Le Serment D'Amour the start prior after being swamped late. Two wins from five starts at this venue offer some encouragement, but a major lift is required.

Finished third to Unuboreyasan at this track last start, beaten six and a half lengths after settling rearward, and that was a solid enough effort from a runner unwanted in the market. Her sixth to G T Yubi before that was not as sharp, but she brings reliable 1500m form and a strong record with Akihiro Yoshida. Those factors make her the one to beat.
