Kyoto Race 11 - The Unicorn Stakes(G3)

Expect one of the top two picks will win this. MERCANTOUR (11) was an effortless winner last time over 1800m at Hanshin Dirt, scoring by 4 lengths. Form to date has been strong with two wins to his credit. Clearly the one to beat again. SILVER RATIO (4) was an impressive first-up winner last time out in an easier race over 1800m at Hanshin Dirt, getting home by a neck. Will be better for that latest run and looks a big threat to the top selection. SORTE AREIA (9) looks to launch this prep the way he ended the last three months ago when he scored over 1800m at this track. Has an impressive two wins from four career starts. Must be respected despite the calibre of opposition. CORONADO BRIDGE (5) showed early speed from a good draw last time and led into the straight but was swamped late, finishing eighth and beaten 6 lengths over 2000m in stakes class at Hanshin. Tougher assignment this time but cannot be underestimated.

At the latest run failed to make an impression; 7th of 12 at Hanshin Dirt on April 11 over 1800m, 12 len behind Chuwa Carnegie with 57.0kg at $102.60. The run before that faded in the straight ran last of 8 at Hanshin Dirt on March 1 over 1800m, 11 len behind Mercantour with 57.0kg at $21.90. Others going much better leading into this.

Second-up. First-up after two months favourite; won by a neck at Hanshin Dirt April 5 over 1800m defeating Coeli Vento carrying 57.0kg at $2.50. Previously second-up 4th of 16 at Nakayama Dirt on December 14 over 1800m, 1.75 len behind Keiai Agito with 56.0kg at $2.10. The obvious threat.

At the latest run won by 0.5 len at Nakayama Dirt April 12 over 1800m defeating Sistema Solar carrying 57.0kg at $14.60. The start before that 4th of 16 at Chukyo Dirt on March 14 over 1800m, 6 len behind Don Erectus carrying 57.0kg at $244.80. Likely to find them too smart.

Comes here off a 48-day let-up. Most recently faded in the straight ran last of 7 at Hanshin on March 15 over 2400m, 6 len behind Shadow Master carrying 57.0kg at $38.60. Before that won by 0.5 len at Hanshin Dirt March 1 over 2000m defeating Clutch Slugger with 57.0kg at $28. Prefer to watch at this stage.

Resuming after a three months break. Finished off last campaign winning by 1.0 len this track January 31 over 1800m defeating Silver Ratio with 57.0kg at $11.60. On debut second of 12 at this track November 29 over 1800m, 4 len behind Bad Ragaz carrying 56.0kg at $38.30. Could prove too smart for these.

Racing well recently. Returns from a 62-day let-up. At the latest run favourite; won by 4 len at Hanshin Dirt March 1 over 1800m defeating Dantsu Shitan with 57.0kg at $1.10. The start before that ran on from midfield; 2nd of 11 at this track on January 5 over 1800m, 0.5 len behind T M Sao Leve carrying 57.0kg at $4.30. Can get the job done again.
