Kyoto Race 9 - Atago Tokubetsu

TAGANO ELU (6) First up today. Finished well when 2nd beaten by 1 1/2L last time at Sapporo and have to respect the form at this trip. Expected to be flashing home. Must be considered. ATMOS (9) Proven record when resuming. Pulled away to win by 4L last time at Chukyo. Will be motoring home late. Underrated. TAGANO ALTURA (4) Shot clear to win by a margin of 3L last run at the track. Should be competitive in this race at a bit of odds. LORD AMALFI (8) Faded at the finish when 3rd last run at Sapporo. Going well this preparation. Has the necessary speed to mitigate the wide draw. Can measure up to this company.

Returns from a lengthy spell after finishing ninth at Niigata Dirt, beaten just over five lengths by Ruler Rich when settling rearward at big odds. The run prior was a sixth at Fukushima Dirt, beaten over 11 lengths, and there was little late response. He has five placings from 18 attempts around 1800m, but recent form leaves him with plenty to turn around.

Went within a nose of winning at this track last start, giving a sight before being claimed late by Jo Tarumae. That was a sharp lift after finishing sixth at Hanshin Dirt over 2000m, beaten just over seven lengths when unwanted in the market. He is a proven track-and-trip winner and race-fit, so another honest showing looks likely, though the winning edge is not guaranteed.

Produced a clear rebound at this track last start, running second to Sistema Solar and beaten a length and a half after picking up nicely late at long odds. That followed a plain second-last at Hanshin Dirt, beaten over 18 lengths, so the latest run is the one to trust. Third-up fitness and a track-and-trip win keep him in the minor-money mix.

Scored with authority at this track last start, beating Balios by three lengths after travelling into the race and sprinting clear for a very easy win. His previous ninth at Hanshin over 2400m was better than it reads, beaten only three lengths, and the return to 1800m clearly suited. Third-up, with Seinosuke Yoshimura aboard again, he has strong claims to go on with it.

Second-up after a disappointing first-up run at this venue, finishing second last behind Sorte Areia and beaten over 16 lengths despite being near the top of betting. His prior effort was much better, a second in an ALLOW at this track when beaten just under two lengths by God Espada. A one win and one place record from four track-and-distance starts keeps him in calculations for a minor share.

Returns from a lengthy spell after closing last campaign with a second at Sapporo Dirt, beaten a length and a half by On The Movie after finishing strongly. He had also been runner-up there the start prior as odds-on favourite, so the form is reliable if not quite ruthless. With two wins and five placings from eight starts around 1800m, he is a sound each-way contender fresh.

Has struggled to make an impact in two runs this campaign, finishing 14th at this track last start after settling back and making no late impression at long odds. The start prior was also poor, second last at Hanshin Dirt and beaten over 18 lengths. Third-up fitness is a positive in theory, but the current form line leaves her looking a long way off the main chances.

Returns from a two-month freshening after a solid third at Sapporo Dirt, beaten just under a length by S C Victoria when letting down nicely. He had won there the start prior as favourite, beating Highlightning by just over a length, and his overall record is sound with two wins and seven places from 13 starts. Placed twice from three at this track and distance, he has credible place claims.

Returns from a lengthy spell after an excellent Chukyo Dirt win, beating Lusitania by four lengths when near the top of betting and putting the race away quickly. That showed a good level of upside, and his record of two wins and one placing from six starts gives him a stronger profile than many here. With one win and one placing from four attempts at 1800m, he is a genuine winning chance fresh.

Returns from a lengthy spell after a decisive Chukyo Dirt win, beating Hall Of Mirrors by four lengths as a well-supported favourite. He had been second to Lichtmuhle the start prior, beaten just under a length, so the form pattern is both consistent and progressive. Already a winner at this track and distance, and with Manabu Sakai having winning form aboard, he sets a strong standard fresh.
