Kasamatsu Race 8 - Race 8 - 1580
ECORO RAIJIN (4) missed the frame two back in tougher company then last time in a more suitable affair scored by 6 lengths over 1600m at this track. Hard to beat based on that last run. LUXE WARRIOR (7) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by 0.8 lengths over 1600m at this track. Finds a tougher race but he has the ability to test this field. AILES MINERVA (1) is racing well, scoring two back at this track before finishing third last time over 1580m here. Has a solid record here at the distance with two wins and three placings from seven tries. One of the main contenders. ANTENNA LAST (2) was sixth over 1580m at this track two weeks ago. Well placed to make amends.

Recent form sound. Last start 3rd of 8 at this track on March 30 over 1580m, 2 len behind Maruyo Haruki with 55kg at $31.40. The run before that won by a neck at this track March 3 over 1600m defeating Seven Three Rose carrying 55kg at $17.40. Likely to go well from the rails draw.

At the latest run favourite; scored a big 6 len win at this track March 19 over 1600m defeating Hiruno Cardiff carrying 57kg at $1.30. The run before that 10th of 12 at Nakayama on January 24 over 1600m, 9 len behind Primzahl carrying 58.0kg at $73.30. Big chance to make it back-to-back successes.

At the latest run second last of 8 at this track on March 30 over 1580m, 42 len behind Maruyo Haruki with 57kg at $92.80. The run before that won by 0.5 len at this track March 16 over 1400m defeating Cosmo Memorable carrying 57kg at $52.80. Not doing enough to threaten the top few today.

Comes off a 40 day let-up. Most recently settled back and ran on when 6th of 11 at Kawasaki on March 5 over 1500m, 5 len behind Captain Blue with 56kg at $46.70. The run before that 4th of 11 at Urawa on February 23 over 1500m, 4 len behind Kokomo Rose with 56kg at $80.80. Preferred in something easier.
