Kasamatsu Race 9 - Race 9 - 1600
A SHIN QUANTUM (9) finished fifth last start over this distance at this track, beaten 2 lengths. Has a strong record this course, scoring at five of 10 starts. Best form puts him right in this. LUXE WARRIOR (2) was thereabouts last time out when second at this track over 1400m, beaten 0.8 lengths. That run should have him rock-hard fit now. Katsuto Maruno who has two wins when partnering stays on. Likely to feature. ARC PREMIER (3) gets out over more ground today on the back of some solid form of late, the most recent effort a second over 1400m at this track. Missed the frame at his only try at this trip. Ken Takagi has registered two minor placings when on board. One of the main contenders. TAISEI SHIP (6) has been in the market at his last couple of starts but hasn't made an impression, last start finishing seventh over 1600m at this track. Top-three prospects.

Second-up. First-up after five months sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 5th of 7 at this track on February 16 over 1400m, 8 len behind Ala Gracia carrying 55kg at $1.70. Previously second-up 6th of 13 at Hakodate on July 5 over 2000m, 4.5 len behind Morbido with 55.0kg at $5.70. Ready for improvement with that run under the belt.

Racing well recently. Comes off a 42 day let-up. Most recently ran on from midfield; 2nd of 9 at this track on February 2 over 1400m, 0.8 len behind Danse Du Vent with 57kg at $7.50. The race before that won by 2.5 len at this track January 20 over 1400m defeating Schrodinger carrying 57kg at $1.50. Rates highly after a strong run last time.
