Kasamatsu Race 5 - Race 5 - 1580

DANSE DU VENT (5) went forward last start over 1580m at this track and held on well for third. Taking on a better line-up this time but he deserves plenty of thought. SCHNELL KAGA (6) has put together back-to-back placings after scoring three back at this track, most recently beaten 1.5 lengths into second over 1800m at this track. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he can win if at his best. MARUYO HARUKI (1) will find this easier than last start when he finished eighth over 1400m at this track. That effort came on the back of a win two back at this track. Anticipating sharp improvement. LUXE WARRIOR (7) scored last start at this track to make it three wins and two placings from five starts this campaign. Has a strong record at this course, scoring four times from eight starts. Can feature.
