Kyoto Race 9 - Kizugawa Tokubetsu

SARDINE RUN (8) Felt the pinch late when 3rd last start around here. Has the early speed to burn across from the wide gate. Must be considered. LANCE OF HERO (9) Set the pace to win by a margin of a nose last run at Hanshin. No shock to see a win. DAGGER RING (5) Ran on strongly when 2nd beaten by 3/4L last time at Tokyo and showing improvement in recent outings. In strong racing shape this preparation. Will be competitive. GRAFFITI ART (1) First run back from a spell of 27 weeks. Ran 7th last start at Tokyo but has minimal work to do from the alley. Shows good finishing speed. One at a decent price.

Returns from a lengthy spell after ending last campaign with a seventh at Tokyo Dirt, beaten five and a half lengths after settling rearward. His start prior was better, working home for fourth at Hanshin and beaten just over a length. The key attraction is his record at this track and distance, with two wins and one place from four tries, so a forward return would put him among the place chances.

Returns from a four-month break after finishing 12th at Niigata Dirt, beaten just over nine lengths when unwanted in the market and never in the picture. The start prior was also plain, beaten six and a half lengths at Tokyo Dirt at big odds. She has one placing from three tries around 1600m, but the past 12 months read poorly and she has plenty to turn around.

Back from a three-month break after a heavy defeat at Niigata, where he was 15th and beaten over 12 lengths at long odds. He had also been safely held at Chukyo the run before, finishing eighth and beaten just over five lengths. His overall place record and one win at this track give some background support, but recent figures leave him with a demanding task.

Worked home evenly for second at this track last start, beaten a neck by Lien Mahina, and that was a clear rebound from his 11th at Chukyo when never a winning hope but still beaten under four lengths. He has placed four times from eight starts in the past 12 months and Kanta Taguchi has a solid record on him, so he profiles as a reliable contender for the minors with winning scope.

Went within just under a length at Tokyo last start when sent out favourite, following a sound third at Hanshin where he was also well found in betting. That pattern points to a horse holding his form deep into the campaign, and his two starts at this track have produced a win and a placing. He has not been winning out of turn, but the recent consistency makes him a major player.

Second-up after finishing fourth at this track over 1800m, beaten just over six lengths at generous odds after settling rearward. Her previous run at Niigata was similar on paper, fading late into seventh over the same trip. The first look around 1600m is the question, but she has won at this venue and Yuichi Kitamura has already won on her, keeping her in the place conversation.

Returns from a three-month freshening after finishing last of seven at Hanshin, beaten over 12 lengths with no obvious excuse. Her Chukyo third two runs back was more competitive, beaten just under three lengths at generous odds, and she has one win and two placings around this distance. Even so, being unplaced from five starts at this track keeps the assessment measured.

Fought hard when third at this track last start, beaten just over half a length by Lien Mahina after being sent out favourite. He had also been favourite at Chukyo two runs back when sixth, beaten two and a half lengths, but still picked up nicely late. With two wins and four places from ten starts overall and a sound record at both track and distance, he remains one of the main hopes.

Returns from a six-week let-up after scoring first-up at Hanshin, beating Satono Agudo by a nose in a tight finish. That win sits well with his broader profile, as he has two wins from three starts around 1600m and has also beaten Sardine Run earlier this campaign. Kohei Matsuyama is back aboard after winning on him, and that combination gives him the strongest winning case.

Comments

Returns from a six-week let-up after a much better fourth at Hanshin, beaten just under two lengths despite being unwanted in the market. That came after a poor Sapporo run where he was second last and beaten over 12 lengths after dropping out sharply. His long 1600m record is solid enough and third-up fitness helps, but he looks more a place hope than a winning anchor.
