Kyoto Race 3 - Mdn Race
BLACK MUSE (5) First up and attacked the line when 2nd first up last preparation at Hanshin. Jockey Cristian Demuro and trainer Mikio Matsunaga are usually competitive together. Could pose a threat and expected to go very close. POKAPOKA YOKI (4) Was quite a handful for the competition when 3rd last run at Hanshin. Displays good tactical speed. Has run into the money 2 from 2 attempts this preparation. Strong chance. AEOLIS PALUS (8) Showed strength on the speed initially before fading at the end 3rd last run around here. Will be in the finish. DEEP REMEMBER (7) Good run when finishing 2nd beaten by 1 1/4L last start at the track and having second race start. Could give a show.

Made his debut in a NEWCOMER over 2000m at this track and finished seventh, beaten just over six lengths behind Gold Krieger after being only fair through the line. He was an outside chance in the betting and now has the benefit of race experience, with the class relief a help. The first look at around 1800m is the query, but he has enough upside to be considered for the placings.

Debuted over 1600m at this track and finished tenth of 16, beaten just over seven lengths behind Red Seeker after offering only a fair finish. He was big odds there and was also beaten by Deep Remember through that form line. The class drop gives him a softer assignment, but the first try around 1800m leaves him with plenty to prove.

Was sent out at long odds on debut over 1400m at this track and finished eighth, beaten seven and a half lengths by Sehzade. She did keep working once the race was beyond her, which is a small positive, but she was never a winning hope. The move to an untried 1800m asks for clear improvement before she can trouble the stronger chances.

Returns from a five-week let-up after finishing third at Hanshin Dirt, beaten seven and a half lengths by Gaya's Samurai as a well-supported favourite. He had also run third on debut at Chukyo, beaten five lengths after working home evenly, so the place record is sound without yet showing a winning edge. Third-up with Mirai Iwata aboard, he is a genuine minor-placing hope.

Returns from a three-month break with the strongest body of placed form among the runners with more than one start, having placed two times from four overall and two times from three on turf. She was seventh at Chukyo before the break, beaten six and a half lengths by Mannat, after another plain seventh on dirt. Those runs were below market expectation, but her earlier profile and Cristian Demuro's booking keep her firmly in the winning mix.

Finished 13th on debut in a NEWCOMER at Kyoto Dirt, tailed off behind Chuwa Arch after being miles back and failing to improve. She was big odds there and the run left little to work with from a form perspective. The class drop is some assistance, but she has to produce a vastly sharper effort to get involved.

Produced the strongest debut performance in the race when second in a NEWCOMER over 1600m at this track, beaten just over a length by Red Seeker after settling rearward as favourite. The first try around 1800m is the one point to assess, but the class relief and that competitive first-up run give him a clear form edge. He sets the standard and looks the one they have to beat.

Came very close at this track last start, finishing third and beaten just under a length by Dawn Racer after being pipped at the post. That followed a debut third at Kokura when big odds, beaten two and a half lengths after tracking the speed and working home evenly. She has placed in both starts and brings reliable form, though she still has to turn consistency into a win.
