Kawasaki Race 11 - Race 11 - 1600

SNOWSHOE (2) Ran 4th last time here. Should improve from the last run and has a positive gate. Great to see jockey Norifumi Mikamoto taking the ride. Has to be strongly considered. HOKKO SOMNIUM (11) First up after 17 weeks and ran well when 2nd first up last preparation here. Jockey Haruku Sano and trainer Yuuya Yamazaki must be respected together. Definite claims. DEFINITIVO (1) In the money when 2nd last time at the track on a heavy surface and will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Coming back in distance. Respect in this event. OPERA PLAGE (8) Shot away to win by a margin of 3L last start at the track. Shows good early pace. This field suits.

Comments

Returns from a five-week let-up after being pipped at the post over 2000m at this track, where he was beaten half a length as a well-supported favourite. He had earlier won a B2B3 at this venue by two lengths from Candelaria and his record at this track is excellent. The 1600m poses some question, but his consistency keeps him right in the winning mix.

Comments

Returns from a five-week let-up after a sound first-up fourth behind Der Sturm over 1400m at this track, beaten just under two lengths in an open market. His 1600m record is the key attraction, with five wins and a placing from nine attempts around the trip. He has to turn the tables on Der Sturm, but the distance profile gives him a strong platform.

Comments

Returns from a lengthy spell after ending last campaign with a distant 12th in a COND at Ohi, where he conceded a huge start and was never involved at long odds. The prior sixth was also well beaten, so the recent race evidence is thin. His track-and-distance win and good record with Ryo Novata help, but he has plenty to prove fresh.

Comments

Was second last at Funabashi three weeks ago, beaten over 14 lengths after being close enough if good enough and fading right out. The previous fifth there was more respectable, beaten three lengths in a small field, but this is still a clear rebound task. He has placed at this track and distance, though the latest run makes him hard to recommend strongly.

Comments

Returns from a five-week let-up after finishing fourth over 2000m at this track, beaten just under four lengths by Rutonwaji after settling rearward. His previous third was better, hitting the line from an unlikely position when beaten just over a length. Third-up fitness is a plus, but back to 1600m he profiles more as a place hope than a dominant threat.

Returns from a five-week let-up in peak form after winning over 1400m at this track, beating Elephant Run by a length when among the outsiders. That followed a solid B2 third behind Opera Plage, so the form has held together. The 1600m record is not perfect, but he has won at this track and trip and arrives with the right current form to take beating.

Comments

Returns from a five-week let-up after a plain first-up run at this track, finishing second last and beaten just under nine lengths behind Der Sturm at long odds. Recent form is the obvious concern, and he was also safely held in a COND prior. The saving grace is a three-win record at this track and distance, which gives him some minor-money hope if he lifts sharply.

Returns from a two-month freshening after a commanding B2 win at this track, beating Oriko D'Elegance by three lengths as favourite. That was a clear turnaround from his Tokyo Dirt 12th, where he was at long odds and never made an impact. Takayuki Yano stays aboard and he has won at the distance, so he must be respected for exotics and can threaten if holding that form.

Comments

Returns from a five-week let-up after finishing second last over 2000m at this track, beaten over 15 lengths by Rutonwaji when unwanted in the market. His prior second at big odds showed he can finish off when the race suits, but the latest effort came with no obvious excuse. Around 1600m he has placed without winning often enough to remain a cautious minor chance only.

Comments

Resumes after a four-month break following a fifth in B1 grade at Ohi, beaten four and a half lengths at long odds after keeping on without threatening. He had earlier finished seventh in A2B1 company at this track, again safely held. His overall 1600m record has some depth, but he is unplaced from ten starts in the past 12 months and has to return much sharper.

Comments

Resumes after a four-month break after ending last campaign with a sixth at this track, beaten just under five lengths when near the top of betting. The run before was stronger, a one-length second behind Dream Japan at this venue. His career and track-distance records are solid, but no win from six starts in the past 12 months keeps the winning case guarded.
