Kanazawa Race 9 - Race 9 - 1500
ONE CARD FELLOW (9) Finished 5th last time around here. Giving another go here and will be well suited at the trip. Ibi Kazuya has been training plenty of winners recently. Winning chance in this line up. SYN SCHIENE (6) Below expectations when 8th last run at the track. Akihiro Yoshida has been successful before. Racing consistently this campaign. Deserves consideration. GOLD BRAVO (1) Right in the mix last start around here and will be well suited at the trip. Has minimal work to do from the alley. Among better hopes. FRANCORCHAMPS (2) Just shy of the win last run at this track and suited at this distance in the past. Tatsuya Nakajima usually performs well for the Ibi Kazuya stable. Drawn nicely. Suitably placed in this race.

Has been knocking hard on the door and was beaten a head by Glaciares at this track last start after being near the top of an open market. The start prior she was third to Worlds Collide, and her 1500m record reads ten wins and 12 placings from 35 attempts. Add four wins from nine at this track and distance and a strong record with Masayoshi Aoyagi, and she sets a clear winning standard.

Went within a long neck of Whitehead over 1700m at this track last start at generous odds, continuing a campaign built around consistent finishing efforts. He had earlier closed off strongly when third as favourite, and the return to 1500m suits a horse with three wins from three at this track and distance. Gold Bravo has a recent edge over him, but he remains a strong winning chance.

Returns from a one-month freshening after finishing sixth to Chomechome over 1700m at this track, beaten six and a half lengths when unwanted in the market. The run prior was better, hitting the line strongly for third to Mani Hero at long odds. He has won twice around 1500m, so the trip is not beyond him, but he shapes more as a place hope than a confident winning play.

Returns from a two-month break after a fifth in COND grade at this track, where he was unwanted in the market but made late ground from a hopeless position. Before that he worked home evenly for third to Syn Schiene over 1700m. The class drop and his two wins from three at this track and distance give him a genuine platform, and he looks the main threat to Gold Bravo.

Picked up reasonably late when fifth to Whitehead over 1700m at this track last start, but he was unwanted in the market and still beaten just over three lengths. The run prior at Kasamatsu in B5 grade was poor, beaten over 16 lengths after conceding a big start. His long record around 1500m gives some grounding, yet his recent figures leave him with plenty to find.

Returns from a one-month freshening after finishing eighth to Chomechome at this track, beaten over 10 lengths after settling well back and making no impression. That followed a last of eight in COND grade when beaten over 17 lengths. Her track-and-distance record is excellent and Akihiro Yoshida has strong figures aboard her, but current form is the clear obstacle.

Returns from a one-month freshening after being swamped late and finishing seventh to Chomechome over 1700m at this track, beaten seven and a half lengths. His previous run was much stronger, leading and only being caught late when second to Mani Hero. He is effective at this track and distance and races handy, so a return to that prior effort would put him in the minor mix.

Has been a long way below his better form, finishing last to Whitehead over 1700m at this track last start when beaten over 17 lengths at big odds. The start prior was no better, again last and beaten a long way after a poor finish. His past track-and-distance record and Taiga Kurihara record are notable, but the recent evidence points firmly the other way.

Was well found in betting but safely held when fifth to Sai And Ko in COND grade at this track last start, beaten over 12 lengths after only working home evenly. His start prior second to Rune Factor in B1 grade was more respectable, and he now comes back on a quick 10-day turnaround with a class drop in his favour. Three wins from four at this track and distance keep him in the placings picture.

Made some late ground when sixth to Whitehead over 1700m at this track last start, beaten three and a half lengths after being unwanted in the market. Two back he had his chance in B1 grade at 1900m and could not finish it off. His broader track record is sound enough, but the win strike-rate remains modest and others bring sharper recent claims.
