Kawasaki Race 9 - Race 9 - 1500
MEISHO MATILDA (7) returns from a break of ten weeks. Genuine performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a win over 1500m at this track. Ideally placed to score while fresh. SERVE THE MISSION (1) was in the money two starts back at this track but couldn't back it up last time when seventh, beaten 7 lengths, at this track over 1600m. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. DOZAN ONE (5) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell on July 10, finishing sixth and beaten 6 lengths over 1500m at this track. Has a strong first-up record, scoring on two occasions from three runs. Can make his presence felt. JUNINTOIRO (3) turned in a strong performance first-up when in the money at this track but disappointed last time when 11th, beaten 17 lengths, at this track over 1500m. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time.

Comes here off a 33-day let-up. At the latest run 7th of 14 at this track on April 9 over 1600m, 7 len behind Miyabi Cry with 56kg at $11.50. The race before that made ground from midfield; 2nd of 7 at this track on March 2 over 1600m, 2.5 len behind Horse One carrying 56kg at $24.90. Worth another chance.

Resumes after a break of ten weeks and has been in the money when fresh before. Finished off last preparation by 1.5 len this track March 2 over 1500m defeating Brandistock carrying 54kg at $2.80. First up last campaign third of 11 at Funabashi November 4 over 1500m, 6 len behind Cuisiniere carrying 54kg at $25.10. This is an ideal race to kick off. Top hope.
