Kochi Race 8 - Race 8 - 1400
LOGAN PASS (7) Ran 7th last start at the track. Should improve. Expecting to settle positively. Racing consistently this campaign. Taichi Nagamori is a strong choice aboard. Can win this. KAISER BLITZ (4) Finished 4th last start around here. Should improve from the last run. Has plenty of early speed. Very competitive this campaign. Goes close. OR DU SOUVERAIN (5) Came in 5th last run here. Expecting improvement here and strong form at the distance. Has the ability to figure. TIGER WAGON (2) Clearly outclassed when 10th last start at the track but drawn nicely. Shows good early pace. One of the chances.

Finished last behind Photosphere at this track two weeks ago, beaten over 14 lengths after settling too far away and failing to come into contention. His previous ninth behind Debug was also plain, despite making some late ground from well back. He has a past win at this track and distance, but the current form leaves him with a sizeable turnaround to make.

Produced a poor effort behind Debug last start, finishing second last and beaten over 20 lengths after racing prominently and giving little late. That has to be weighed against his narrow win over Or Du Souverain at this track the run prior, when he was well enough fancied and held on strongly. His track-and-distance record is sound, so a return to that win would put him in the minor-money mix.

Was never a factor when eighth behind Photosphere at this track last start, beaten nine and a half lengths after conceding too big a start. The run prior was weaker again, finishing second last behind Debug and beaten over 18 lengths. He has placed through the past year without winning, but his track-and-distance record is thin and others bring stronger recent form.

Worked home well for fourth behind Debug at this track last start, beaten four and a half lengths at big odds, and that followed a solid second to Win Imeru when near the top of betting. He has beaten Or Du Souverain and Logan Pass recently, carries a strong record with Takuya Okamura, and his recent 12-month form gives him the most convincing winning platform.

Kept grinding when fifth behind Debug at this track last start, beaten five lengths, and his previous second to Tiger Wagon was a much stronger reference after being pipped by a neck as favourite. His record at this track and distance is excellent from a small sample, and three wins this season show he is still holding solid form. A genuine winning threat if he finds that sharper finish.

Ran fourth behind Photosphere at this track last start, beaten just over five lengths despite being unwanted in the market, which was a clear improvement on his second-last behind Steve Barows. His overall place record is useful and he has won with Seishiro Osawa before, though he is yet to win at this track and distance. Profiles as a realistic place hope rather than a dominant winning chance.

Was safely held behind Debug last start, finishing seventh and beaten ten lengths after travelling close enough before offering little. The better guide is his previous win over Windblown at this track, when a short odds-on favourite and sharp late. His track-and-distance record is strong and the leading jockey-trainer pairing adds further confidence, so he can bounce back strongly.

Worked home fairly without threatening when seventh behind Photosphere at this track last start, beaten eight and a half lengths at long odds. The start prior was a heavy defeat behind Debug, finishing last and beaten over 19 lengths. He has a past track-and-distance win and a respectable overall record, but his current campaign figures leave him needing a major form reversal.

Finished fifth behind Photosphere at this track last start, beaten just under six lengths after making late ground from an unpromising position. His previous eighth behind Debug told a similar story, with some closing work but never a winning threat. A long-standing 1400m record with only one win tempers the case, so he has to turn late effort into a more effective result.

Finished sixth behind Photosphere at this track last start, beaten just over seven lengths after working home fairly from well back without threatening. Two runs ago she was fifth behind Steve Barows, beaten ten lengths despite being near the top of betting. A past win at this track and distance gives her some base, but recent efforts fall short of the main chances.

Kept coming when seventh behind Debug at this track four weeks ago, beaten over 11 lengths, and the in-running note was more encouraging than the margin suggests. His previous second-last behind I Blanco was plain, so he does need to lift his finishing level. Even so, three wins and four placings from 12 starts around 1400m keep him in the place calculations.
