Kasamatsu Race 7 - Race 7 - 1400
JUN SAKU (6) sets the standard after winning over this course and distance last start, beating Sway Back by just under a length and confirming she is far better suited back at Kasamatsu than she had looked at Niigata Dirt. KARAKURI SPIRITS (2) brings the strongest away form of the dangers, having closed off well when sixth in a 3yo Maiden at Niigata Dirt, and the class drop keeps her right in the race despite the rise from 1200m. RANRAN RINRIN (5) has placed at her past two starts here and looks the reliable minor-money runner, though she still needs to bridge a margin. ARDE BURROUGHS (8) has the stable change and class drop to help, but her recent Sapporo Dirt efforts leave her with more to prove than the top pair.

Finished fifth at Kasamatsu last start, beaten over 13 lengths after settling prominently and fading late behind Kitano Kosei. Her third here the run prior reads better on paper, but she was still beaten over 11 lengths by Butchigire and was only an outside chance in the betting. A class drop and race fitness help, yet she needs a sharper staying effort to trouble these.

Returns from a two-month let-up after catching the eye late when sixth in a 3yo Maiden over 1200m at Niigata Dirt, beaten three and a half lengths by Trustia despite being unwanted in the market. Her previous Fukushima Dirt run was plain over 1700m, so the 1400m remains a genuine query. Even so, that latest closing effort and the class drop make her one of the main chances.

Placed at Kasamatsu last start, but the margin tells the real story, as she was beaten out of sight by Topaz Tesoro after sitting right there and never threatening. She had also failed to run on two back when well-supported favourite behind Kokorono Hikoboshi. Fourth-up fitness and a class drop are positives only if she finds a much stronger finish.

Finished last at Kasamatsu last start and was beaten a long way behind Tureis after fading late at big odds. Her previous fifth behind Kokorono Hikoboshi had more merit, as she made up ground and was beaten six and a half lengths, but the overall record is hard to recommend. Still a maiden after 14 starts and must improve sharply at the trip.

Has produced two consecutive seconds at Kasamatsu, most recently working home strongly from a difficult position when beaten six lengths by Elmy. She had earlier been beaten three lengths by Kataphraktos at generous odds, so the improvement is genuine. Yet to win from five starts, but two placings from two tries at the distance make her a sound each-way and place proposition.

Bounced back strongly at Kasamatsu last start, winning over this trip by just under a length from Sway Back after holding a narrow lead and finding plenty late. That was a major turnaround from her second-last at Niigata Dirt over 1800m, where she was unwanted and never involved. Third-up now and already a course-and-distance winner, she has the most convincing recent form in the race.

Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing fourth at Nagoya, beaten eight lengths by Zenno Zondag at big odds while making late ground from well back. That was a clear improvement on his Hanshin Dirt failure, where he was never competitive and beaten out of sight. He has placed at the distance, but still needs another step forward to become a serious threat.

Returns from a two-month let-up with plenty to prove on recent form, having finished a distant last in a 3yo Maiden over 1700m at Sapporo Dirt when unwanted in the market. She was also second last over 1000m there the start prior and could not make ground. The class drop and leading stable are helpful, but the back-in-trip query keeps her to place calculations.
