Kochi Race 10 - Race 10 - 1300
COPANO HAMPTON (3) Handy enough when winning by 1 1/2L last run here. Should race on the speed. Mamoru Tanaka stable are having a great run of late. In the mix. BEST DECISION (11) Finished 6th last start at the track. Capable of bouncing back. Minoru Miyagawa is a smart booking. Will be competitive. DIVERTIR (1) Not up to scratch when 11th last start at the track but gets a favourable draw. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Up to these. SHOSAN KIZUNA (6) Well beaten when 8th last time here and coming back in trip. Can be competitive.

Dropped right out of contention last start when second last at this track, beaten over 16 lengths by Thunder Zeus at big odds after giving away a big start. The run prior was much better, finishing second in B4 grade and beaten just under a length by With Your Dream. He is a track-and-trip winner, but that latest failure leaves him with a fair bit to repair against stronger claims.

Worked home soundly when fifth over 1600m at this track last start, beaten four lengths by Morpheus at generous odds. That followed a close third at this venue when she knuckled down late from a difficult spot. Back to 1300m is a positive given her two wins and two placings from eleven starts at this track and distance, and the light weight keeps her in the minor money discussion.

Comes off a strong C1 win at this track, scoring by a length and a half from Bratty Kid as the odds-on favourite after lengthening well late. He had been beaten only a neck by the same runner the start prior, so the form has real continuity. Three wins from three starts at this track and distance is a compelling profile, and his current form makes him the runner they all have to beat.

Led clearly before tiring when fifth in B2 grade over 1600m at this track last start, beaten just over five lengths by Burgmuller at long odds. His previous fifth in B3 company was plain late, but the class drop and return to 1300m are important positives. With two wins and six placings from 18 starts at this track and distance, he has the right foundation to bounce back strongly.

Led at this track over 1600m last start but was still beaten nine and a half lengths by Mozu Rickey after starting at long odds. Two back in B3 grade he tracked the speed and failed to quicken, finishing seventh. His record at this track and distance is respectable, with four wins and eight placings from 25 attempts, but recent margins say he has to lift markedly.

Was never a factor when eighth in B2 grade at this track last start, beaten just over seven lengths by Burgmuller after settling with plenty to do. His previous fifth behind Bystol was more encouraging, beaten three and a half lengths after battling on well. The class drop and strong jockey-horse record are positives, making him a realistic place chance if he finishes off more cleanly.

Resumed with a disappointing second-last finish in B2 grade at this track, beaten over 10 lengths by Burgmuller despite being near the top of betting. His final run before that campaign break at Nagoya was also poor, finishing second last and well beaten by 20 lengths. The class drop gives him some help second-up, but he has to rediscover far more competitive form.

Failed to threaten when seventh over 1600m at this track last start, beaten seven and a half lengths by Morpheus after being unwanted in the market. She had been third in B4 grade two runs back, but that was more a battling placing than a sharp performance. Her track and distance background gives some hope, though others bring stronger current form.

Was never in the race last start when tenth at this track, beaten over 12 lengths by Thunder Zeus at big odds after conceding a huge start. The start prior was also costly from the rear, finishing seventh in B2 grade despite market interest. His four wins and four placings from eight starts at this track and distance are hard to ignore, but he must turn his recent pattern around.

Finished last in B2 grade at this track last start, beaten over 12 lengths by Burgmuller at big odds and never looking likely. His fourth two runs back also reads poorly on margin, beaten over 11 lengths behind Ryunosu. The return to a winning distance and class drop are positives on paper, but his recent figures leave him well short of the main chances.

Has finished sixth at his past two starts, most recently beaten six lengths by Thunder Zeus at this track after failing to quicken at long odds. The previous B3 run was similar, though he was much closer in the market there. His broader profile is better than those efforts, with three wins and six placings from 16 starts in the past 12 months, and the rider booking keeps him in the winning mix.
