Kawasaki Race 3 - Race 3 - 900
UNSUI (2) Was very impressive when winning by 6L last run at this track and will try to take advantage of the draw. Winnable race. GHERKIN VIPER (6) Racing fresh today after a break. Won by 2 1/2L last start at this venue and having second career run. Is in good order and can run well. RIKEA CHA CHA CHA (5) Finished 7th last run at this track. Giving another go here. Could run a race. REVE FILLES (7) Tidy effort when 2nd last run at the track. Gets back and needs luck. Can get the job done.

Comes off a plain ninth at this track over 1600m, beaten over 17 lengths by Bluff Catch after leading and offering no real excuse. The start prior was better at Mombetsu when seventh, beaten four lengths at big odds after working home evenly. Barrier one can help him hold a position, but he has not raced around 900m before and recent form makes him an each-way outsider only.

Resumed with a dominant win at this track, scoring by six lengths after sitting behind the leaders and putting Reve Filles away with authority. He was sent out an odds-on favourite there and now stays at a track and distance where he is one from one, with Ryo Novata also one from one aboard. Second-up and bringing the strongest recent figure, he looks the clear horse to beat again.

Was tenth at this track last start over 1500m, beaten a long way by Timbalitos after giving away too much start and never getting into the contest. Her prior third here behind Yuyu Adonis was sounder, beaten just under five lengths, and she has placed at around 900m. Even so, the latest run was too poor to ignore and she must lift sharply to trouble these.

Backs up after a second-last finish at Funabashi over 1200m, where she was beaten over 13 lengths by Toya Lake after sitting prominently and weakening late. The Urawa run prior was also plain, finishing eighth and beaten just over nine lengths at long odds. With no win from ten starts and a quick return from two flat efforts, others hold stronger claims.

Was disappointing behind Unsui at this track last start, finishing seventh and beaten over 17 lengths after settling well back and making no impression. Her previous Ohi third was far more competitive, beaten just over a length after being run down late, and the leading trainer-jockey combination is a positive. A return to that earlier effort puts her in the placing discussion.

Returns from a five-month break after winning his only start at this track, beating Ikuno Knight by two and a half lengths on debut as an odds-on favourite. He tracked the speed, moved up strongly and was never seriously threatened, albeit in a small field. Already one from one at this venue and distance, he has the right profile to give the favourite a genuine race first-up.

Resumed with a second at this track, beaten six lengths by Unsui after leading to the turn and trying hard before being safely held late. That was a clear improvement on her Mombetsu sixth, where she tracked the speed but offered little thereafter. She has placed three times from six starts around 900m, so she is a sound place hope without looking the main winning threat.
