Kasamatsu Race 12 - Race 12 - 1800
A SHIN YATAGARASU (9) Finished 5th last run around here. Likely to bounce back. Recent form of the stable is strong. Has the necessary speed to mitigate the wide draw. Racing consistently this campaign. Worth consideration. HABIBI (5) Finished 3rd last run at the track. Going well this campaign. Yuusuke Tsutsui does know the horse very well. Gets back and needs luck. A win wouldn't surprise. WITH PHILIP (3) Ordinary performance when 8th last time around here. Good to see Seigo Tsukamoto is jumping on. Very competitive this preparation. Possesses very good closing speed. Goes close. PINNESIRI (8) Nice run when 3rd last start here. Tatsuya Watanabe is a bonus. In the mix.

Comes through an A4 fourth behind Moon Warrior at this track, beaten seven lengths after starting at generous odds. His prior second to Luxe Leon was much stronger, beaten a nose when near the top of betting and looming as the winner. The inside draw suits an on-pace type, but 1800m is new ground, so his strong this-track record has to carry him into winning calculations.

Worked home fairly from well back when seventh behind Windmuhle in A2 grade last start, but was still beaten just under ten lengths. The run prior was similar, finishing fifth after conceding too big a start. He does have a good record at this venue and has placed around this trip, yet his recent finishing margins leave him with plenty to find.

Failed to make headway when eighth behind Star Sand Beach last start, beaten eight and a half lengths despite being near the top of an open market. His previous B1 win over Smart Tempest was much better, coming from well back to score by a length as short odds-on favourite. Seigo Tsukamoto has a strong record on him, but the latest run makes him more of a rough each-way hope.

Has been safely held in two runs this campaign, most recently seventh behind Moon Warrior in A4 grade and beaten just over nine lengths. He worked home evenly for fourth two back at long odds, so there was at least some merit there. Third-up and proven at the distance helps, but he will have to lift sharply to trouble the stronger chances.

Worked home well for third behind Star Sand Beach at this track last start, beaten just over two lengths and again respected in an open market. His previous fourth at Nagoya was sound enough, and the broader profile is strong: six wins from 29 starts, excellent this-track figures and a win from his only listed start at this distance. He looks a genuine winning threat.

Finished ninth behind Moon Warrior last start, beaten over 12 lengths and unwanted in the market. That followed a last placing behind Star Sand Beach, beaten over 14 lengths at long odds, so the current form is plain. He has older distance form on the page, but being unplaced in all eight starts over the past 12 months is hard to overlook.

Finished sixth behind Moon Warrior in A4 grade last start, beaten eight and a half lengths after starting big odds. The run prior was weaker again, second last behind Hawaiian Icon after giving away too much ground. His this-track record is respectable and the class drop helps, but the recent form says he is a place hope rather than a win bet.

Kept finding for third behind Smart Tempest in B1 grade last start, beaten three lengths after being close enough in betting. That followed a dominant B3 win over Chien De Lune by four lengths, so his recent form has substance. The concern is 1800m, where he has been unplaced in three tries, but his current form keeps him in the place mix.

Disappointed as favourite when fifth behind Moon Warrior last start, beaten eight and a half lengths in A4 grade. His start prior was much better, beating L'Ecrin Sourire by two lengths in B1 grade and finishing strongly. With eight wins from 17 starts at this venue he has the right local profile, though two unplaced tries around 1800m temper the winning case.

Lifted third-up when third behind Moon Warrior at this track last start, beaten six lengths but improving off a plain first-up run in A2 grade. His overall record is superior for this field, with 12 wins from 39 starts and an outstanding body of work at this venue. Proven around 1800m and reunited with a successful rider, he has the strongest winning profile.
