Kochi Race 2 - Race 2 - 1300
RA ATUM (2) Came in 5th last start around here. Should improve from the last run and gets a favourable draw. Won't be far away during the run. Winning chance in this line up. ENTRECHAT (3) Average at best when 4th last run here. Happy to overlook that run and having second career run. Expect to go close. O SHIN WHALE (5) Ordinary performance when 5th last start here but was a debutant last start. Displays good tactical speed. Place chance. MOULIN EBENE (6) Disappointing effort when 6th last run here but was a debutant last start. Has shown early pace in races to date. Use betting as a guide.

Returns after two months off following a plain ninth at this track, where she was beaten over 15 lengths by Rikea Bolero after having the job ahead and making no headway. Her fifth behind Smith Barows the start prior was also at long odds and still left her beaten nine and a half lengths. Barrier one is some help, but four unplaced runs at around 1300m leave her with plenty to turn around.

Reaches third-up after a sounder effort last start, finishing fifth at this track and beaten just over five lengths by Three Scarlet after working home evenly. His debut defeat was heavy, but he has been respected in the market at both runs and the latest performance gives him the strongest recent profile. With fitness building and a handy racing style, he is the runner they have to beat.

Made a fair debut when fourth behind Bellagio Izana at this track, beaten seven lengths after settling rearward in a small field. She had O Shin Whale behind her there, which is a useful reference point for this race, and she now has the benefit of that first outing. The leading-trainer angle at this venue adds some weight to the case, making her a genuine winning hope with improvement to come.

Has race fitness on her side, but the recent form leaves a question. She finished well held behind Lowen Hearts last start after travelling just off the pace and failing to make a serious challenge, following a sixth behind Three Scarlet when beaten seven and a half lengths at big odds. Five unplaced runs at around 1300m limit the winning appeal, though she can still be considered for minor money.

Took some late ground on debut when fifth behind Bellagio Izana at this track, beaten just over seven lengths after starting near the top of an open market. That market respect suggests more was expected, and the way he finished gives him a platform to improve second-up. He does have to turn the tables on Entrechat, but the debut effort contained enough to rate him a strong chance.

Had every chance on debut when last behind Bellagio Izana at this track, beaten over 11 lengths after being in the right spot and offering little late. She also finished behind Entrechat and O Shin Whale, so the exposed form says she has ground to make up. Still, with only one run behind her and natural improvement available, she fits more as a place prospect than a firm winning play.

Has been beaten a long way in both starts, most recently fifth behind Lowen Hearts when over 19 lengths away after conceding a big start. Her debut was even more concerning, finishing last behind Palmgren and tailed off after weakening through the line. Third-up fitness is a positive in theory, but the race form has to lift sharply before she becomes a betting option.

Has been unable to get into either of her past two races, conceding big starts and finishing sixth on both occasions. She was beaten over 20 lengths by Lowen Hearts last start and over 12 lengths behind Maono Sailing the run prior, both at this track. Fourth-up fitness helps, but three unplaced starts around 1300m point to a runner looking more for the lower end of the placings.
