Kawasaki Race 4 - Race 4 - 1400
RIKO TYPHON (4) Tidy effort when 3rd last time here. Has early speed and positions nicely. Has not missed the money this campaign in 4 attempts. Expect to go close. KAMIKAZE SKY (11) First up after a break. Was first to greet the judge when winning by 1L last time at Funabashi. Has to be included. MERCI COURIR (2) Tidy run when 3rd last start at Urawa and gets a favourable alley. Should race on the speed. Suitably placed in this race. LULU AMELU (9) Disappointing effort when 9th last run at Urawa. Could work into the placings.

Back after five weeks since a sixth at this track, where he was handy enough but could not finish off and was beaten just over seven lengths by Vesel in COND company. His earlier fifth, beaten five and a half lengths by Kyoei Hagoromo, came as a well-supported favourite, so there is some underlying regard for him. The class drop helps, but one placing from eight tries around 1400m keeps him in the minor-money bracket.

Went close at Urawa last start, finishing third in a COND and beaten just over a length by Victoria Lily despite starting at long odds. The run prior was only moderate when fifth behind Ukiyono Messiah, but he now looks race fit and gets the winning rider back. His 1400m record is still developing, yet the latest effort gives him the strongest winning case in this field.

Returns from a three-month break after a ninth at Chukyo, where she was poised to improve but offered little and finished six and a half lengths from Arabian Joy in a Mdn. Her Kyoto run prior was similar on paper, yet she has placed at around 1400m and now resumes for Yuya Yamazaki with Tsubasa Sasagawa engaged. The recent form reads plain, but the profile gives her a genuine chance to lift sharply.

Back after five weeks in consistent form, having finished third at this track when beaten just under five lengths by Vesel after leading and battling away. He was also second here the run prior behind Princess Summit, though beaten as an odds-on favourite. With two wins and four placings from seven starts overall and three placings from three starts at this venue, he is a reliable place prospect rather than a risk-free win bet.

Has been well beaten in both runs this campaign, finishing last at Funabashi last start when beaten over 17 lengths by Kurino Cenote after giving away a big start. The start prior was also last at this track, beaten over 14 lengths by Ange Grace at long odds. She has won around 1400m before, but the current form is well short of what is required.

Returns from a four-month break after being second last at this track, beaten over 14 lengths by Auftakt when never in the picture. The better reference is his previous fourth behind Sam Barows, when unwanted in betting but finishing strongly from an impossible position. He has won at this track and distance, so a fresh return to that level would put him in the placing mix.

Back after five weeks following an eighth at this track, beaten over 18 lengths by Vip Jesse after settling rearward and making no impact. Her previous ninth behind Afro Gal was also plain, with the market offering no encouragement. The long 1400m record includes wins, but she is unplaced in all eight starts this season and has to find a major turnaround.

Back after five weeks since a fifth at this track, beaten just over eight lengths by Vuelo Oscuras after being close enough to strike but finding little. Two back she was ninth, beaten over 15 lengths by Choco Latte, and again was unwanted in betting. Her overall place rate is sound enough for a minor positive, but the recent finishing effort has to improve sharply.

Finished ninth at Urawa last start, beaten just over eight lengths by Terrentius, and gave very little in the run home. That followed a second-last placing at this track behind Vesel, beaten over 19 lengths after dropping right out. She has won at this track and over this distance, but the current campaign form leaves her with a lot to repair.

Closed the margin sharply at Funabashi last start, finishing fifth behind Goodman and beaten just under two lengths after being sent out at long odds. Her previous ninth at this track was plain, but she brings a stronger body of work than many rivals, including four wins and four placings from 16 starts around 1400m. Proven at this track and distance, she is a serious winning chance if she repeats the latest effort.

Returns from a five-month break after ending her last campaign with a COND win at Funabashi, beating Stereo Curry by a length after travelling in front and keeping on strongly. The start prior was a distant seventh behind Jun Pirka, so the form is not without a question. She has not raced around 1400m before, but the last-start win and returning rider give her genuine place appeal.

Was well held at Funabashi last start, finishing eighth and beaten over 18 lengths by Wings after settling a long way back. The run prior at Urawa had a little more merit, as she worked home fairly for seventh behind Terrentius, beaten just over six lengths. The light weight is some help, but she remains a maiden after 12 starts and must produce a stronger finish.
