Kochi Race 8 - Race 8 - 1400

KEIAI MAPLE (1) Came in 5th last run here. Expecting improvement and has a nice advantage with a good draw. Has early speed and positions nicely. Can have an impact. LAPLACE (2) Tailed off when 7th last time at the track but drawn nicely. Should come to hand quickly. Expect to go close. FUYUSOBI (4) Came in 4th last run around here. Happy to overlook that run. Will be hitting the line strongly. Ticks plenty of boxes and looks like value . NEO BRAVE (3) Ran 6th last time here. Could give a show.

Comments

Caught the eye late when fifth in an A3 at this track last start, beaten just under two lengths by Mizuwario Kudasai after having plenty to do. The failed-to-finish run prior is a blemish, but he was near the top of betting there and his broader profile is strong: four wins and one placing from seven at this track and distance. Drawn to use barrier one, he has the right base to make amends.

Has been safely held at his past two, finishing seventh in an A3 at this track last start when beaten four and a half lengths at long odds. The run prior was a last of nine behind Amazing, beaten over 17 lengths, so the recent form is plain. His track-distance record is respectable, but he has to rediscover much sharper finishing work to trouble these.

Finished sixth in an A4 at this track last start, beaten three and a half lengths by Amuletum, but the manner of the run was better than the bare result after he came from an unlikely position. He had earlier run fourth in A3 grade at this venue. Three wins and eleven placings from 21 track-distance starts point to a genuine place profile rather than a clear winning edge.

Picked up nicely in the straight when fourth over 1600m in an A3 at this track last start, beaten four and a half lengths by Amazing. That followed a fifth at this venue where he was beaten just over six lengths and unwanted in betting. The return to 1400m suits on his record, but the recent margins leave him with work to do against the main chances.

Was never in the race when second last over 1600m at this track last start, beaten over 15 lengths at big odds. The previous seventh was also plain, beaten eight and a half lengths after starting among the outsiders. A class drop gives him some help, but no wins from 20 track-distance runs is a major concern and others bring far stronger recent form.

Has been well below his better form in two recent runs, finishing ninth over 1900m at this track last start when beaten over 10 lengths by Sanono Espo. The run prior was another ninth, beaten over 12 lengths behind Lyra Bond after making no impression. Dropping back in trip may help, but he is unplaced from three at this track and distance, so this looks an each-way fringe case only.

Resumed with a solid fourth in an A3 at this track, beaten a length and a half by Mizuwario Kudasai after working home evenly. His previous fourth at AB level was also competitive, and the return of a successful rider is a genuine plus given four wins and eight placings from 19 pairings. He lacks a sharp winning strike lately, but he profiles as a reliable top-three chance.

Worked home well when fifth in an A4 at this track last start, beaten two and a half lengths by Amuletum, and that followed a second over 1600m behind Amazing at generous odds. His winning strike-rate is modest, but one win and 14 placings from 23 starts in the past year underlines how often he runs well. With proven track-distance form, he is a strong danger.
