Kawasaki Race 12 - Race 12 - 1500
ASA (4) First up after a break. Mediocre display when 6th last run at this track. Can make a comeback. Should go close. CREVASSE (2) Disappointing effort when 11th last time at this venue but gets a favourable draw. Well placed and has solid claims. BORDEAUX TIRAMISU (3) Mediocre performance when 10th last run at Urawa. Has early speed and positions nicely. Should be around the mark. BLOODLINE (6) Finished 7th last time around here. Capable of a running a place.

Returns from a five-week freshening after a very plain second-last at this track, where she settled back and gave further ground, beaten out of sight behind Ari Happy. The run prior was also weak, with a tenth behind Dateotoko after making no impression. A previous 1500m win is noted, but the current form line is too poor to recommend with confidence.

Returns from a five-week freshening with a mixed profile, as recent form is plain but the underlying record is good enough for this. She was second last behind Aoi Hanamichi after being close enough before weakening, and had earlier led before fading when seventh behind Dateotoko. Proven at this track and distance and fourth-up now, she is capable of sharp improvement.

Was safely held at Urawa last start, finishing tenth behind Go On Purpose after settling well back and never coming into the race. Her previous sixth over 900m at this track was more honest, as she kept on from the rear without threatening. A past win at this venue keeps her in the place mix, but she has to turn around a modest recent pattern.

Returns from a three-month break after closing last campaign with a sixth at this track, beaten five and a half lengths behind Live Driver after travelling in touch without threatening. The previous run was weaker, but his overall profile is stronger than most here: three wins from eleven starts at this venue and a solid 1500m record. Fresh, he sets the standard.

Returns from a five-week freshening after two heavy defeats over 2000m at this track, most recently ninth behind Ryu Butter when conceding a big start and never entering the race. Her track-and-trip record is the clear counterpoint, with two wins and two places from ten starts, and this jockey has won on her. Even so, recent form leaves a fair bit to fix.

Returns from a five-week freshening with stronger credentials than the last-start seventh might suggest. He conceded a big start behind Dantalion and was never a winning factor, but he was at least fair through the line. The 1500m record is the key, with seven wins and nine placings from 29 attempts, and that proven depth makes him a genuine winning danger.

Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing ninth behind Meiner Boss at this track, beaten over 18 lengths after getting well back and failing to improve. He had also finished last the start prior after coming under pressure late. The distance record is a saving grace, with four wins from nine starts at 1500m, so a return to that level would put him in the place discussion.

Returns from a five-week freshening after a ninth over 900m at this track, where she was well back throughout and made no impression behind Candy Bouquet. Her run prior was better, working home fairly for seventh behind Atago Tenjin after spotting the field a big start. Back around a distance where she has won twice, she is a realistic place hope rather than a clear win pick.

Was again well held at Urawa last start, finishing second last behind Waves Leaps after settling well back and failing to improve. The previous eighth at this track over 900m told a similar story, as he was never in the contest. He has won at this venue before, but one placing from 12 starts around 1500m underlines the task.

Has offered little in two recent runs, finishing 12th at Funabashi last start after being in touch but gone soon after, then beaten over 14 lengths behind Top Ranker. She had been beaten a long way at this track the run prior. Past wins at 1500m are noted, but she is unplaced in all eight starts at this track and distance.

Returns from a two-month freshening second-up after finishing last at Ohi behind Vulture Star, beaten over 18 lengths after fading late. Her earlier COND run at Ohi was also plain, when second last behind Barba Lion after offering little when it mattered. The career record has some substance, but this season's form is not good enough yet.
