Kochi Race 7 - Race 7 - 1400
WONDER MUSE (10) Threw down a serious challenge last time around here. Has the early speed to burn across from the wide alley. Has the ability to take this out. PIKO MARQUISE (9) Missed by a narrow margin last start at this venue. Mamoru Tanaka stable are on fire recently. In good shape since resuming from a spell. Has to be strongly considered. O K TOMBOY (8) Ran 4th last time at this track. Will be trying to topple them late. Worth a ticket. G T VIVA (5) Ran 7th last run around here. Capable of a big run.

Finished well held behind Sunrise Judge at this track last start, after again going around at long odds and offering little in the run home. The start prior was no better, finishing last in a COND after having the drop on the leaders and weakening right out. Her older 1400m record gives a small counterpoint, but current form leaves a substantial turnaround required.

Worked home evenly for third behind Vip Malik at this track last start, beaten six lengths after being near the top of betting. That was a clear return to more competitive form after he was beaten over 12 lengths in a Mdn at Nakayama Dirt. Two placings from three runs around 1400m read well, but the overall maiden record keeps the winning case in check.

Was never a factor when seventh behind City Prosper at this track last start, beaten over 11 lengths after settling a long way back. The run prior had more merit, leading and holding on evenly for sixth in a COND when beaten four lengths. She has enough track and distance background to be respected for exotics, but her recent finishing strength must improve.

Finished ninth behind Sunrise Judge at this track last start, beaten over 18 lengths after having too much ground to make up. Her first run this campaign was also plain, finishing last behind Emphasize and well held. She is now third-up and has placed around this trip before, but the recent figures are too thin to make a strong case.

Could not close off when seventh behind Sunrise Judge at this track last start, beaten over 12 lengths at long odds. She had placed the start prior in a COND, but that was still a nine-length defeat and came after travelling close enough if good enough. The track placings offer minor support, though she remains a maiden with plenty to find.

Was last behind Sunrise Judge at this track last start, well beaten by 22 lengths after conceding a huge start and never entering the race. The start prior was similarly weak, finishing second last behind Emphasize by the same broad margin. Weight relief is the only positive, but her long winless profile makes this a severe test.

Finished strongly for third behind Val D'Orcia at this track last start, beaten half a length at long odds, and that performance has him right in the mix. He was fourth behind Emphasize two runs back, albeit beaten just over seven lengths after settling rearward. Piko Marquise had his measure last time and the 1400m record is the query, but his latest run is good enough to win this.

Ran fourth behind Vip Malik at this track last start, beaten eight and a half lengths after settling rearward. She was also safely held in a COND the run prior, finishing fifth behind Energy Ayu. The return of Shinji Hatanaka is a plus given their record together, and she has placed around 1400m, but she shapes more as a place chance than a winner.

Missed by only a neck behind Val D'Orcia at this track last start after going around an outside chance in betting, and that near-miss also gives him a recent edge over Spray Fall. He was too far back in a COND two runs ago but still worked through the line fairly. With one win and two placings from four starts at this venue, he brings the most reliable profile and rates the one to beat.

Was beaten a nose by Huldrefolk at this track last start as the odds-on favourite, so the defeat was narrow rather than damaging. Her previous run was much stronger, winning a COND by eight lengths from Yamanin Rubus in dominant fashion. The wide draw asks some work early, but her record at this venue and with Takuya Okamura makes her a major winning threat.
