Kochi Race 5 - Race 5 - 1300

MEISHO HAMAGIKU (2) turned in a sub-par run last time out over 1400m at this track after a nice win the start prior. Has her share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. TOP AMERICAN (8) was comfortably accounted for when third last time out over 1400m at this track, beaten 3 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Has the class to take this out. JOSHO POWER (6) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a seventh over 1400m at this track. Placed to advantage and can make amends. OLIVE BRANCH (9) turned in another moderate effort last start when 13 lengths from the winner in ninth over 1400m at this track. Well placed to turn things around.

Most recently held ground to the line 3rd of 12 at this track on July 11 over 1400m, 1.75 len behind Collier D'or with 55kg at $18. The start before that crossed from a wide gate to settle just off the pace but gave ground when 5th of 11 at this track on June 28 over 1600m, 7 len behind Daoradaora carrying 55kg at $114.90. Not far from the winner last time but this is a tough assignment.
