Kasamatsu Race 8 - Race 8 - 1400
MASAHAYA MAUVE (5) Ran 6th last time at Nagoya. Is capable of a resurgence. Jockey Masaaki Oohata and trainer Hiroyuki Imazu are a pair that can't be ignored. Should be in the finish. NIHONPIRO VESPER (3) Competed in a tight contest last time around here. Won't be far away. LOVUSHKA (8) Finished 4th last start at this track. Has the ability to turn things around. Won't be far away during the run. Ticks plenty of boxes and looks like value . JOUR SE LEVE (1) Came in 5th last time at the track but has the ideal draw. Looks a value runner.

Led over 1580m in a 3yo+ C6 at Kasamatsu last start but weakened late to finish fifth, beaten eight lengths by All My Time, after being only an outside chance in the betting. The run prior was much weaker when second last in a 3yo+ C1, beaten over 19 lengths by Bijin Hakumei. Her track-and-distance record offers some support, but she needs to find considerably more under race pressure.

Was last at Kasamatsu a fortnight ago, beaten over 12 lengths by Ric Noir after settling well back and never threatening. His previous fifth over 1580m behind Pep Talk was also safely held, and the overall record remains winless from 22 starts. A class drop gives him some help, but the recent form and lack of winning habit leave him with a sizeable task.

Went very close at Kasamatsu three weeks ago, finishing second in a 3yo+ C7 and beaten a neck by Bravo Kirishima after looming and fighting hard. That was a strong turnaround from a C1 failure when last and well beaten by 22 lengths, so the latest run is clearly the better guide. Third-up and proven at this track and distance, she has a solid winning case if she holds that form.

Improved into fourth over 1580m in a 3yo+ C6 at Kasamatsu last start but was still beaten six and a half lengths by All My Time after getting every chance behind the speed. Two back he was seventh, beaten over 14 lengths by Cosmo Finesse, so the recent level is only fair. He does have two track-and-distance wins and a useful jockey record, but others bring sharper form.

Was below his best at Nagoya last start when sixth, beaten just over seven lengths by Namura Fixer, after holding a narrow lead and being swamped. The run before was far stronger, winning a 3yo+ C8 by four lengths from Meisho Isshin as a very short odds-on favourite. He is having his first look at Kasamatsu and has a distance query, but his recent-season form keeps him right in the race.

Made some late ground at Kasamatsu last start when fifth, beaten three and a half lengths by Ric Noir, and the effort had merit given she was big odds and came from well back. Her previous fifth in a 3yo+ C7 over 1580m was less compelling, beaten ten lengths after settling rearward. The winning strike-rate is modest, but this looks a suitable race for her to press for minor money.

Dropped out of contention last start when seventh at Kasamatsu, beaten eight and a half lengths by Ric Noir after conceding a big start and never getting into the race. Her previous third behind Cosmo Finesse was better, even if still beaten seven lengths at generous odds. She has placed five times from twelve rides with this jockey, so a minor placing is possible if she settles closer.

Worked into the race at Kasamatsu last start and stuck on for fourth, beaten just over three lengths by Ric Noir, in a performance that held up well against an open market. He had also been fourth in a 3yo+ COND over 1580m behind Pep Talk, so the recent pattern is consistent rather than brilliant. With a strong track-and-distance base and tactical speed, he looks the most dependable winning option.
