Kasamatsu Race 5 - Race 5 - 1400

A SHIN AZALEA (3) Came in 3rd last run around here and suited at this distance in the past. Displays good tactical speed. Amongst the placegetters at every start this campaign. Solid claims. MEISHO NANAKAZE (4) Only fair when 9th last run here. Happy to forgive that run. Must respect in this event. ACE OF SPADES (1) Finished 5th last run here. Giving another go here and has minimal work to do from the alley. Could be a value selection. KITANO HIKOBOSHI (8) Came in 5th last time at this venue. Should muster plenty of early speed. Among the chances.

Kept working when fifth behind Smart Judy at this track last start, beaten just over three lengths in 3yo+ COND grade, and that reads well enough for this. The start prior he was sixth in 3yo+ C1 over 1580m after settling rearward, so coming back to a proven track-and-distance setup is a plus. He has four wins and seven placings from 35 attempts under these conditions and profiles as a strong winning chance.

Returns from a one-month freshening after finishing last behind Cosmo Finesse at this track over 1580m, beaten over 18 lengths and weak late. His previous fourth behind Sembi Toryo was better, albeit beaten just over nine lengths after leading and working home evenly. The class drop and return to 1400m help, but his career strike rate is modest and he appeals more as a place hope if he can bounce back.

Has been hard to knock for consistency, placing at her past three, but last start she was only third behind Good Romance after starting odds-on and being close enough to win. Two back she was a sound second to All My Time in 3yo+ C6 grade. Her record at this track and distance is excellent, with two wins and two placings from four starts, so she is a genuine chance if sharper late.

Returns from a one-month freshening after finishing second last behind Bellagio Channel at this track, beaten over 12 lengths after giving away a huge start. She was also well held two back behind A Shin Taverna, making little impression from a long way back. Three wins at this track and distance give her some grounding, but current form says she has to lift sharply.

Improved last start when fourth behind Smart Judy at this track, beaten three lengths after tracking the speed, and that effort gives him the strongest recent platform in this field. He had Ace Of Spades behind him there, which is a useful head-to-head pointer. The run prior was plain after being unwanted in betting, but the class drop, race fitness and proven 1400m record put him in the right race to win.

Second-up after finishing second last behind Lovers Blue at this track, beaten over 14 lengths after sitting just off the pace and offering little in the straight. The start prior he was tailed off behind Hiruno Galicia over 1580m, so the recent form is hard to support. His broader career record is sound, but he must show far more zest to trouble these.

Finished last behind Pep Talk at this track last start, beaten over 12 lengths after being close enough before dropping out in the run home. His previous fifth behind Iks Clover was more competitive but still left him beaten just under six lengths. The class drop is some help, yet he has to turn around a flat recent pattern to be a serious factor.

Worked home fairly from well back when fifth behind Yamanin Eidolon at this track last start, but he was still beaten eight and a half lengths and never a factor. Two back he offered little behind Cosmo Finesse over 1580m. Tsutsui Yusuke has won on him before and the class drop is favourable, but others bring stronger recent claims.
