Kanazawa Race 6 - Race 6 - 1500
CHARITY CHALICE (5) Ran 3rd last start around here. In top racing shape since returning from a break. Will give a big sight. ZEPHYRIA (6) Honest race when 2nd last time around here. Tatsuya Nakajima and Katou Kazuhiro work well together. No surprise to see a forward showing and one of the main hopes in this race. ACE OF GOLD (7) Won by a big margin of 4L last start at the track on a heavy track. Taiga Kurihara and Kouji Fujita deserve serious attention as a team. Among better hopes. MEISHO BONTEN (2) In the money when 3rd last start at the track and has a positive draw. Expecting to settle positively. Stable is in form. Likely to fill a place.

Dropped right out of contention last start at this track, finishing sixth behind Rule Over and beaten over 14 lengths after conceding a huge start. The start prior was sounder when fourth to Meiner Etretat, beaten just over three lengths and closing nicely. He has won at this track and trip, but the latest effort leaves him with plenty to turn around.

Led and tried hard last start when third to Rule Over at this track, though the six-length margin showed he was well held after being prominent in betting. His previous run was a dominant nine-length win from Kyoei Chrome as a short odds-on favourite, so there is ability when allowed to control his race. This looks a sterner test of that form and he must lift again.

Finished off impressively to win at this track last start, beating Very Very Happy by two and a half lengths after being well found in betting. That was a clear lift on her previous fifth behind Sweet Hoyden, where she settled rearward and was beaten eight and a half lengths at long odds. She is proven at the distance and looks a genuine minor-placing chance if that latest surge holds up.

Had every chance last start when fifth behind Rule Over at this track, looming into the race before finding little and being beaten over 12 lengths. The win prior over Mediator was narrow but genuine, achieved as a prohibitive odds-on favourite. Her track record is respectable, yet the latest run was a clear backward step and others bring stronger current claims.

Continues to race honestly, finishing third to Daiyu Advance at this track last start when beaten just under a length as odds-on favourite. He had also been second to Queen Kotchan the run prior, beaten a neck, so the recent form has substance even if he has missed two good chances. With one win and three placings around 1500m, he is a reliable place hope again.

Has put together three straight placings and was second to Nac Candle at this track last start, beaten three lengths as a short odds-on favourite after working home evenly. The run prior was another second, two lengths from Lia Artesian, when she fought on after tracking into the race. Still a maiden after ten starts, but her perfect place record at this venue and Tatsuya Nakajima taking the ride keep her right in the winning discussion.

Won with authority at this track last start, beating Lustrare by four lengths as a dominant favourite at a very short odds-on quote. That backed up a sound second to Sweet Hoyden, where he was beaten four lengths but kept trying from a handy position. His record at this venue is strong from limited attempts, and he profiles as a solid place chance if the last-start confidence carries through.

Produced the standout last-start performance in this field, winning by six lengths at this track as favourite after travelling strongly and putting the race away with plenty in hand. The start prior was a distant third to Upturn Day, so consistency is not flawless, but she has since shown a much sharper level. With a leading track stable behind her and a win from her only ride with this jockey, she sets the benchmark.

Has been placing consistently without threatening the winner, most recently third to Sally Un at this track and beaten just over six lengths after working home evenly. The start prior was similar, third behind Win I'Ll Glow but lacking the turn of foot to challenge. Her track-and-distance record is useful, but she has to find a sharper finish to trouble the main hopes.
