Kasamatsu Race 5 - Race 5 - 1580

KEN WENZEL (7) doesn't win out of turn, scoring just once from 22 starts. Was again denied last start when he found one better over 1580m at this track. Nicely placed to play a major role. SHORYU ASAHI (4) was going okay prior to finishing 6 lengths back in sixth last start over 1500m at Nagoya. Today's rider Seigo Tsukamoto has a decent record aboard this four-year-old entire so he should be given another chance. ESTRELLA (3) hit the frame when resuming two runs back at this track but couldn't back it up last start when sixth, beaten 35 lengths, over 1400m at this track after being in contention on the corner. Likely improver with strong prospects. MORNING FUJI (5) settled well back before finishing 11 lengths adrift in sixth over 1400m at this track last time. Settles back early but winds up late. Can run on into the finish.
