Kochi Race 10 - Race 10 - 1400
GALAPAGOS (6) sets the standard on current form, having won a 3yo+ B4 over 1600m at Kochi by a nose as odds-on favourite after being beaten only a neck the run before. His Kochi 1400m record is also a major asset. REACH A DEAL (9) looks the main danger after letting down well for second behind Amazing, beaten just under a length at Kochi, and his broader winning record gives that run substance. ENOUGH SAID (5) has the right track-and-distance profile and was close to THUNDER ZEUS in 3yo+ AB company two runs back, though he needs to sharpen off a fair fourth last start. DERMA AZRAEL (8) is honest, third-up, and unbeaten for the place at this track and trip, but his latest second still leaves him with a little to find on the top pair.

Led over 1600m at Kochi last start and was only gathered in late when second to Daoradaora, beaten a length and a half in 3yo+ B3 company. The drop back in trip is a plus given his two wins and two placings from six attempts at this track and distance, while the 1900m run prior looked a stretch. He profiles as a sound place chance if he controls his effort better late.

Battled on for third behind Galapagos in a 3yo+ B4 over 1600m at Kochi, but the margin was just over seven lengths and she was at generous odds. That followed a 3yo+ B3 win over Morpheus when unwanted in the market and charging home late. The 52kg helps, yet she needs to turn consistency into a much sharper performance to trouble the main hopes.

Finished fourth over 1600m at Kochi last start, beaten just over seven lengths by Amazing after settling rearward as an outside chance in betting. Two back he was favourite in 3yo+ B2 grade and finished fifth to Berlinetta, beaten just under four lengths after picking up late. The back-to-1400m setup suits, but his recent finishing margins leave him with work to do.

Returns from a three-month break after winning a 3yo+ AB at Kochi by a length from Mitono O, extending clear in the run home. The run before at Sonoda over 820m was poor, beaten over 12 lengths by Fukuno Yildiz at big odds, but his Kochi record is much stronger with three wins and a placing from five starts here. Freshness is the query, but his home-track profile keeps him in the mix.

Worked home fairly when fourth to Carte Maitresse in a 3yo+ B2 over 1600m at Kochi, beaten five lengths, so he needs a cleaner winning edge. The stronger pointer is his third to Thunder Zeus in 3yo+ AB grade two back, beaten a length and a half at long odds after finishing strongly. Back to a track-and-distance where he has won twice, he has enough substance to be a major contender.

Lifted again at Kochi last start, winning a 3yo+ B4 over 1600m by a nose from Stella Matutina as the odds-on favourite. That followed a neck second to the same horse when short odds-on, so his recent form has been highly reliable. With four wins and three placings from eight starts at this track and distance, he brings the strongest blend of form and suitability to the race.

Ran third to Daoradaora in a 3yo+ B3 over 1600m at Kochi, beaten just over two lengths at big odds after tracking the speed and working home evenly. He had also placed behind Yukino Maria the start prior, beaten just over a length when nearer the top of betting. Those runs are honest, but the market surprise last time suggests he still has to prove he can repeat it at this level.

Improved second-up when second to Carte Maitresse in a 3yo+ B2 over 1600m at Kochi, beaten three lengths after being run down late. The prior sixth behind Snow Horn Road was only fair, but he now reaches the right stage of the campaign and owns four wins and three placings from seven starts at this track and distance. He is a solid minor-money prospect with some winning claims.

Rebounded strongly at Kochi last start when second to Amazing over 1600m, beaten just under a length at long odds after letting down well. That was a marked turnaround from his second-last behind Berlinetta, beaten over 13 lengths, so consistency remains the one caution. His 14 career wins and proven Kochi 1400m record give him a serious winning case if he holds that latest level.

Worked home evenly for third behind Carte Maitresse in a 3yo+ B2 over 1600m at Kochi, beaten four and a half lengths at generous odds. The run prior was better on paper, fifth to Yukino Maria and beaten just under two lengths as a well-supported favourite, but he again settled rearward. His jockey record is strong, yet he needs a sharper closing burst to threaten.
