Kanazawa Race 5 - Race 5 - 1500
KAISER LEON (5) Solid win by 1 1/2L last start here. Has not missed the money this preparation in 3 attempts. Added confidence with Akihiro Yoshida doing the steering. Expect to go close. WIN I'LL GLOW (1) Dominant winner by 5L last time here and will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Can get the job done. M T LOVE (7) Tidy effort when 2nd last run here. Likely to get back. Worth strong consideration. RIN TEN RYU (9) Came in 3rd last run around here. No shock to see a win.

Scored decisively in C2 grade at this track last start, finishing strongly to beat Kimiga Ichiban Ii by five lengths after being near the top of betting. That followed a third to Transcenko when the turn of foot was not quite there, so the latest win was a clear positive step. His 1500m record is solid and he has an excellent track-and-distance profile, giving him the right credentials to take beating again.

Has been safely held at her past two starts, finishing sixth to H N Harmony last time when beaten over 10 lengths and unwanted in the market. The run prior was also only fair, beaten just under six lengths by Gene Chen. She has winning form at this track and distance in the broader record, but recent efforts leave her with a sizeable task against sharper rivals.

Worked home strongly from a difficult position to grab third behind Transcenko last start, though the beaten margin of ten lengths keeps the run in perspective. Two back he was last behind Night Planet after failing to make headway. The booking is a plus given his placing record with this jockey, but a winless 52-start career points more to place claims than a dominant winning case.

Worked home evenly for fourth behind Jiji Jet last start, beaten nine lengths, which was a steadier effort after a plain eighth in A2 grade when well found in betting. She has a win and two placings from five attempts around this distance and reunites with a rider who has a strong record on her. That gives her a genuine place profile if she holds her form.

Returns from a one-month freshening after proving too strong in a C2 win at this track, beating Zele Nodus by a length and a half as favourite. His prior third was well beaten, but his overall local record is hard to fault with three wins from seven starts here and a perfect three-from-three record with this jockey. That combination makes him a serious winning chance.

Dropped out sharply when last behind H N Harmony last start, beaten over 16 lengths after having every chance to travel into the race. His previous seventh behind Gene Chen was also plain and he was unwanted in betting on both occasions. A prior track-and-distance win is noted, but he has to find a much stronger finish to trouble these.

Produced a much better result when second to Grace Rouge last start, albeit beaten seven lengths and starting at long odds. The start prior was a heavy defeat behind Luna Cacao, so she still has to back up the latest run. She has placed three times from five starts at this track and brings enough recent placing form to be a live chance if she finishes off with the same purpose.

Returns on a quick back-up after finishing last over 900m behind Jamais Vu, beaten over 10 lengths at big odds after settling rearward and failing to make ground. She was also last behind Gene Chen two starts ago, beaten over 14 lengths. The return to 1500m offers some context, but her recent form is too plain to recommend with confidence.

Has finished third at her past two starts, most recently behind Jiji Jet when beaten seven lengths after working home evenly. The stronger reference is the run prior, when she was beaten just over half a length by Night Planet after being near the top of betting. She remains winless from 26 starts, but the recent consistency gives her a realistic minor-money chance.

Was beaten over 16 lengths when sixth behind Jiji Jet last start after coming under pressure late, and the market had him at long odds. His previous fourth in a small field was no stronger on margin, again beaten over 16 lengths. He has placed nine times overall, but the absence of a win from 31 starts makes this a difficult assignment.
