Kasamatsu Race 8 - Race 8 - 1400
NOVEL PIACE (4) Looked good when 3rd last time around here. Hiroshi Sasano stable are in good form of late. Will give a big sight. A SHIN IHNEN (7) Subpar when 6th last time at this venue. Expecting to settle positively. Will be there at the finish. TSUKAI WARRIOR (1) Was competitive when 2nd last time at this venue and has a nice advantage with a good alley. Must respect in this event. CHUKHA (8) Mediocre performance when 6th last start at the track. Should jump out and bowl along. Could go well.

Lifted last start when second to Satsuki Jewel in a 3yo COND at this track, beaten a length after working home evenly at big odds. The start prior he conceded too much ground and finished sixth, so the latest effort reads as clear improvement within this campaign. He is still winless and has only one placing from four around 1400m, but the class drop and winning rider returning give him a solid platform to go close.

Closed off strongly from a difficult spot when fourth over 800m at this track last start, though she was still beaten six and a half lengths at long odds. Her previous fourth behind Bellagio No Yume was more competitive, beaten just over two lengths when near the top of betting. The class drop and returning rider help, but she profiles as an each-way hope rather than a clear winning threat.

Worked home from an unpromising position when fourth behind Ho O Charles at this track last start, but was still beaten five and a half lengths at long odds. Two back at Nagoya she conceded a huge start and was beaten over 18 lengths after being unwanted in the market. The class drop is a small help, yet she is unplaced in two at the distance and must find a fair bit more.

Placed behind Ho O Charles at this track last start, finishing third and beaten four lengths after working home evenly at long odds. That followed a fourth here when she picked up nicely late, albeit beaten nine and a half lengths. With two placings from four runs around 1400m, a light weight and the same rider aboard, she looks a genuine chance to fill a placing again.

Returned to competitive form when fourth to Karakuri Spirits at this track last start, beaten just over a length after being near the top of betting. Her Sapporo Dirt run before that was a clear forgive line on result alone, finishing well beaten at big odds. The 1400m record has no placings from six attempts, but the latest figure, class drop and strong stable give her a live winning case.

Finished last over 800m at this track two weeks ago, beaten over 16 lengths after holding a position to the turn and offering little thereafter. The run prior was weaker again, beaten out of sight in 3yo+ C1 company after settling rearward. She has a prior win around 1400m and gets a class drop, but being unplaced in 23 starts at this track and distance is hard to overlook.

Second-up after a plain sixth behind Season In The Sun at this track, beaten just over nine lengths when she failed to come into contention. Her overall profile is unusual: no wins from 13 starts, but eight placings, including three from seven at this track and distance. That place consistency gives some minor-money hope, though she has to finish off much better to trouble the main chances.

Failed to finish off when sixth behind Dona Dona at this track last start, beaten seven and a half lengths after being near the top of an open market. His previous second over 800m was better, and his broader profile is solid for this: a track-and-distance winner with one win and three placings from 23 attempts. The class drop and weight relief give him a suitable rebound scenario for the placings.
