Kawasaki Race 5 - Race 5 - 1500
GOLD MONACO (3) sets the standard after winning both starts at this track, most recently putting seven lengths on Cendrillon after being heavily backed into very short odds-on territory. She has already shown she can control a race and quicken, and the unbeaten profile gives her the strongest winning case. ALLEGRO VIVACE (4) is the immediate danger, having bounced sharply from a fair debut fourth to win by six lengths as a prohibitive odds-on favourite. SEI LEGER (9) brings a different form spike, improving from an unwanted debut fourth over 900m to win by a long way next time. That margin demands respect, though this is a deeper test of the strength behind it. DOKOFUKUKAZE (1) also arrives off a six-length win at this venue and did it by making strong late ground, so she has a genuine place profile with winning upside if she repeats that authority.

Back from a two-month break, closed strongly to win by six lengths at this track last start after being heavily supported into very short odds-on territory. That was a clear step forward from her debut fourth, when beaten nine and a half lengths by Champion Wolf despite being near the top of an open market. Third-up and already a winner at this venue, she profiles as a sound place chance with scope to press the main hopes.

Returns from a three-month spell after ending the campaign with a fourth at this track, beaten over 10 lengths at big odds despite picking up in the straight. Her win prior was stronger, leading to score by three lengths as an odds-on favourite, and her track record is respectable. Even so, resuming off that heavy defeat leaves her with clear improvement to find against sharper last-start winners.

Returns from a five-week let-up, unbeaten in two starts and dominant both times at this track. She was backed into very short odds-on territory last start and won by seven lengths from Cendrillon after travelling right there and putting the race away quickly. Her debut win over Vuela Grande also had plenty in hand, and with race fitness third-up she brings the cleanest winning profile in the race.

Back from a two-month break, produced a dominant six-length win at this track last start after holding a clear margin throughout as a prohibitive odds-on favourite. That answered the query from debut, when she was sent out favourite but could only manage fourth behind Duomo Amore. The latest performance is strong enough to make her a major winning chance if reproduced.

Returns from a five-week let-up after finishing sixth at Mombetsu, beaten seven lengths over 1200m, when unwanted in the market and always well back. Her previous second there came in a small field and she was still five lengths from Tree Of Life. The move to an untried 1500m is a genuine question, and she has to show far more than she did first-up.

Has built a very honest three-start record, with two wins and a last-start second at Urawa, though that latest placing came as a prohibitive odds-on favourite when beaten two and a half lengths by Wild Uluru. Her prior win over In Charge was effortless and the winning rider is back. Solid enough for the placings, but she has to prove she can match the sharper Kawasaki winners.

Latest run was only fair when fifth at Funabashi, beaten eight and a half lengths by Stealth Hunter after starting at generous odds. The run prior was better, leading throughout to beat Yuyakeno Sora by a length and a half over 1200m. She has not raced around 1500m before, so the extra ground is the main query, but her winning form keeps her in the place mix.

Returns from a five-week let-up after a fifth at this track, beaten just over six lengths by Vuela Grande, where she picked up well enough without threatening. She had been favourite the start prior when fourth behind Co's Bleu, beaten just under three lengths after tracking the speed and not finishing it off. With one placing from three starts and no win at the trip, she appeals more for minor money.

Returns from a five-week let-up after a wide-margin win at this track, beating Time Of River by a long way when near the top of betting. That was a sharp progression from debut over 900m, where she was unwanted in the market but charged home late for fourth behind Snow Jewel. The latest win gives her strong claims, although she now has to confirm that big margin against better exposed rivals.

Worked home evenly for third at Funabashi last start, beaten four lengths by Fleur Magique as an outside chance in betting. The concern is her prior run at this track, where she was beaten over 14 lengths by Gold Monaco and only battled after racing just off the pace. She has placed around 1500m, but that recent matchup leaves her with a sizeable gap to bridge.

Returns from a three-month spell after winning at Mombetsu, beating Karenda Horse by three lengths as favourite. She had also been favourite the start prior when fourth behind Briller Tation, beaten just over three lengths. Her overall record is sound and the distance record reads well, but fresh against stronger recent Kawasaki winners she appears to have more to prove.

Returns after one month since debuting with a distant second at this track, finishing well held behind Ganar Iroha after being near the top of betting. She worked home evenly and now has race experience, but the margin makes that placing look stronger on paper than in substance. With only one run to assess, she has to improve sharply to trouble the better credentialled runners.
