Kyoto Race 6 - Allowance Race

NOMBRE D'OR (1) is the clear starting point after closing last campaign with consecutive seconds at Kokura, beaten a neck then two and a half lengths, and his 2000m record reads strongly for this assignment. He has already placed at this venue and returns with Atsuya Nishimura back aboard, so the profile is solid. KIKKO BELLO (10) is the immediate danger, third-up and beaten only a long neck by A Shin Beacon at Hanshin after starting near the top of betting, though he is still seeking a win at this distance. LONG TALL SALLY (5) has to be judged forgivingly after being tailed off in the G2 Shion Stakes, but her 2000m statistics are sound and the easier set-up brings her back into contention. GAUDI (4) resumes from four months off with a win from two starts at this track and a good record with Kohei Matsuyama, making him a genuine threat if he returns near his better form.

Resumes after three months following a consistent Kokura campaign, finishing second to Savoire Faire by a neck before another second to Fusen, beaten two and a half lengths on good ground. His 2000m record is a major asset, with one win and three placings from five attempts, and he has placed at this venue. Drawn to hold a forward spot, he has the right platform to make a strong winning return.

Comments

Kept grinding first-up at Hanshin when sixth behind A Shin Beacon, beaten just under two lengths as the well-supported favourite, so the market expected more than he delivered. The prior 3yo Maiden win over 1800m was sound, beating Ho O Motive by just over a length after tracking the speed. He has beaten Dantsu Urus previously but lost to Kikko Bello last time, leaving him a solid place hope rather than a clear top pick.

Has been well held in two Sapporo runs this campaign, finishing last behind Sunset Gold before a tenth to Rule The Wave, beaten just over six lengths at long odds. The move to 2000m is a genuine query as he has not raced around this distance, and his season record is now three unplaced runs. Race fitness is in his favour, but the recent form leaves him with plenty to find.

Returns from a four-month break after ending last campaign with a sixth at Hanshin, beaten nine and a half lengths by Sagarmatha after giving away a big start in the straight. His previous third behind My Valentine was better, and the record at this track is useful with one win from two starts. The 2000m record is thin, but his venue form and jockey partnership give him a live winning chance.

Dropped right out in the G2 Shion Stakes at Nakayama, finishing last behind Master Soarer and tailed off after weakening badly, so that run has to be treated with caution. Her Kokura third two starts back was far more competitive, and her 2000m record of one win and two placings from four starts keeps her in the mix. Back from tougher 3yo Open company, she can rebound strongly.

Returns from a four-month break after finishing seventh behind Wakefield at Hakodate, beaten three and a half lengths when unable to finish off. His Listed sixth at Hanshin over 2200m was respectable enough in a small field, and he has won at this distance, but two unplaced runs this season leave the profile mixed. He has talent on the record, yet recent evidence says others are safer.

Finished last behind A Shin Beacon at Hanshin when resuming, beaten over 11 lengths after settling rearward and making no impression. That followed an 11th at Kokura in 4yo+ ALLOW grade, where he was also unwanted in the market and offered little. Blinkers are a positive gear change, but one placing from eight goes around 2000m and poor recent form make him hard to support.

Has built a reliable campaign, running third at Chukyo before a close second to Omoio Nosete at Hanshin, beaten a neck after tracking the speed and lengthening well. He beat Kikko Bello there three weeks ago and his overall record shows one win and six placings from ten starts. With one win and four placings from seven around 2000m, he is a genuine each-way player with winning claims.

Resumes after three months following a fifth at Kokura, beaten over 10 lengths by Satono Ivory, with no clear excuse after settling rearward. The run prior at Niigata was also plain, finishing eighth and making no headway in 4yo+ ALLOW company. Three placings from three starts at this track and distance are a positive, but he must recapture that venue form to threaten.

Improved sharply third run in when third to A Shin Beacon at Hanshin, beaten a long neck after being pipped late. That followed a sixth behind Omoio Nosete as a well-supported favourite, when he settled handy but did not quicken. He has placed at this track and twice at 2000m without winning, so the query is conversion, but his latest effort says he is close enough to be a major threat.

Was beaten over 19 lengths at Hanshin Dirt first-up, finishing a long way back behind Meisho Jinrai, and the prior run at this track was worse again when a distant last in 4yo+ ALLOW company. His track-and-distance placings show he has handled this venue and trip before, while the gear change is a small positive. Even so, the recent margins leave him needing a major form reversal.

Resumes after three months following a third at Kokura over 1800m, beaten just under five lengths by Acrophase after working home evenly. He had earlier run fifth in the Listed Shirayuri Stakes at this venue, starting big odds and failing to quicken. This is his first race around 2000m, so the trip remains the key test despite a useful record with Katsuma Sameshima.

Returns from a lengthy six-month spell after a ninth in the G2 TV Tokyo Hai Aoba Sho at Tokyo, beaten over 10 lengths at big odds. Before that, he was a solid third in 3yo ALLOW grade at Hanshin over 2400m, beaten three and a half lengths by Black Olympia. His career record is strong on paper, and Ryusei Sakai knows him well, but resuming at an untried 2000m keeps the assessment guarded.

Led at Hanshin last start and stuck on evenly for fifth behind Omoio Nosete, beaten a length and a half in a race where she also split the form with Kikko Bello and Dantsu Urus. Her Chukyo fourth two runs back was sound rather than sharp, and she remains unplaced from two tries at this distance. The light weight helps her place claims, but a stronger 2000m finish is required to win.

Returned with a fifth at Hanshin over 2200m, beaten just under four lengths after leading, which was a fairer effort than his long-odds Listed failure last campaign. The issue is that he was unwanted in the market last start and remains unplaced from three attempts around 2000m. Backing up after one week may not be ideal, and he has to show more at the business end.

Lifted second-up at Hanshin when second to A Shin Beacon, beaten a neck at generous odds after letting down nicely. That was a sharp turnaround from his tenth over 1600m, where he was there to strike but faded out of contention. He is a track-and-trip winner and now reaches his third run back, so the set-up is favourable, though his overall winning strike rate keeps him in the each-way lane.

Comments

Back after six weeks since finishing fifth at Chukyo over 2200m, beaten just over three lengths after racing prominently and fading late. The prior Kokura sixth behind Fusen was plain, and Nombre D'Or had his measure there. Returning to 2000m and this venue is the positive, with one win from three at the trip and a win from one at this track, but his recent form still falls short of the main hopes.
