Kasamatsu Race 1 - Race 1 - 800
BELLAGIO HOME RUN (2) clearly brings the strongest recent profile, having placed in two of three starts at Kasamatsu and going closest when second to Nine Symphony over 1400m, beaten a length and a half, after being prominent in the betting. The drop to 800m is the one point to prove, but her consistency gives her the race's most reliable base. EL DJEM (4) is harder to read: her debut third behind Peace Blossom was good enough for this, and she has placed once from one start at the distance, but the latest run was a heavy defeat after conceding far too much ground. SHIBA FUJI (1) comes through the same Nine Symphony race as BELLAGIO HOME RUN and did grind into third, though the seven-and-a-half-length margin keeps him more in the place mix. FEUZ (6) has a small case on his fourth to Kick Out two back, but the tailed-off latest effort means he needs a sharp rebound to win.

Worked into the placings here over 1400m two weeks ago, finishing third behind Nine Symphony after having plenty to do and grinding home, though he was still beaten seven and a half lengths at big odds. His previous run was much weaker when well beaten by 22 lengths behind Gifuno Oumasan. The class drop helps, but coming back to 800m is a query and he profiles more as a minor-money chance than a win anchor.

Raised the standard when second to Nine Symphony over 1400m at Kasamatsu, beaten a length and a half after looming up and fighting on. She had also been third to Kick Out the start prior and has now placed twice from three starts at this track. The market has respected her at both recent runs, and her on-pace style is a useful asset if she handles the sharp drop to 800m. This is her race to lose on exposed form.

Tailed off behind Nine Symphony here two weeks ago, dropping out sharply in the run home after never offering a finish. That followed another tailed-off effort behind Gifuno Oumasan, when he had been big odds and finished well out of contention. The class drop and rider change provide some context, but recent form gives little confidence unless he produces a much cleaner effort.

Opened her career with a sound third behind Peace Blossom at Kasamatsu, beaten three and a half lengths after working home evenly, and that run reads well in this company. The concern is her latest start, where she conceded a huge start and was beaten a long way by Gifuno Oumasan at big odds. Third-up and already placed at this distance, she can rebound into the placings if she recaptures the debut effort.

Picked up in the straight when fourth behind Nine Symphony last start, but she was still beaten over 12 lengths and again started at generous odds. Two back she was tailed off behind Gifuno Oumasan despite making some late ground from a difficult position. With no placing from six Kasamatsu starts, the class drop alone is not enough to make her a serious threat.

Had been more competitive two starts ago when fourth to Kick Out over 1400m at Kasamatsu, beaten just over six lengths in a small field after being near the top of an open market. The latest effort was a major backward step, finishing tailed off behind Nine Symphony at long odds with no clear excuse. The stable is respected, but he is unplaced from four starts and must rebound to be an each-way factor.
