Kochi Race 9 - Race 9 - 1600
NAMURA CREPE (2) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by one length over 1400m at this track. Meets a stronger field but she is good enough to figure in the finish. KINSEN O (8) is back at the races for the first time since November 15. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1500m at Kanazawa. Has ability and should be right in the finish. PRESTO BAROWS (3) did well last time to finish second over 1400m at this track when he was prominent throughout. Won't be bothered by this longer journey. Poses a genuine threat. BANDONEON (4) turned in a much better effort last time out to score by a nose over 1300m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run.

The race before that 6th of 11 at this track on January 25 over 1400m, 8 len behind Wakuwaku Dream carrying 57kg at $2.50. The inside gate brings him right into contention.

Recent form sound. Most recently ran on strongly from last on the turn; 2nd of 9 at this track on January 18 over 1600m, neck behind Immortal Wind with 57kg at $11.10. The race before that came from midfield; 3rd of 12 at this track on January 10 over 1300m, 0.6 len behind Olive Branch carrying 57kg at $7.30. Close to a win. One of the better chances.

Last start sat on the pace when 3rd of 11 at this track on February 1 over 1300m, 4 len behind Kaiser Blitz with 57kg at $17. The run before that ran last of 9 at this track on January 18 over 1600m, 5.5 len behind Immortal Wind carrying 57kg at $60.50. Latest form makes this a pretty tough assignment.
