Kyoto Race 11 - The Queen Elizabeth 2 Cup(G1)

KAMUNYAK (7) has the right profile to go on with it after winning the G2 Ireland Trophy (Mermaid Stakes) at Tokyo as favourite, following her G1 Victoria Mile second to Embroidery. Her overall record is strong and she has beaten four of the other leading chances previously. The Yuga Kawada association adds further authority and happy to side her way. JURYOKU PIERROT (11) resumes as a high-class filly on a three-win streak, headed by the G1 Yushun Himba (Japanese Oaks), and her record with Seina Imamura is outstanding. Rates highly and is the clear danger. AQUA VERNAL (16) races very well here having placed in the G2 Kyoto Daishoten at this venue and also ran a close fourth in the G1 Tenno Sho (Spring). JOCELYN (13) was only half a length from KAMUNYAK in the Ireland Trophy and has Christophe Lemaire back aboard, making her a genuine danger if she repeats that closing effort.

Comments

Returns from a five-week let-up after finishing third in the G2 Ireland Trophy (Mermaid Stakes) at Tokyo, where she worked home evenly and was beaten two and a half lengths by Kamunyak. She had won the G3 Chukyo Kinen start prior, beating Mini Transat by just under a length, so the current form is sound. The untried 2200m is the obvious query, but her black-type record gives her solid place claims.

Resumes after a three-month break following a plain tenth in the G2 Rose Stakes (Shuka Sho Trial) at Hanshin, beaten over 13 lengths after having the right run and offering little. She had won an ALLOW at Chukyo before that as a dominant odds-on favourite, but this is a much stronger assignment. A prior placing around 2200m helps slightly, though she has plenty to find at this level.

Comments

Resumes after a three-month break with recent form that is hard to recommend, having finished last in the G3 Niigata Kinen when beaten six and a half lengths by Zoroastro. She was also tenth in the G1 Yasuda Kinen two back and made no headway there. Her broader career record is respectable, but she was unplaced at her only previous try around this distance and must lift sharply.

Comments

Returns from a four-month break after winning at Niigata, where she was well-supported and made up plenty of ground to beat Gonbade Qabus by just under a length. Her prior G3 Fuchu Himba Stakes run was only eighth and beaten just over seven lengths, so the rise to this level is the concern. She has a good record with Kiwamu Ogino, but 2200m is new and this asks far more.

Returns from a five-week let-up after running seventh in the G2 Ireland Trophy (Mermaid Stakes), beaten just over five lengths by Kamunyak after closing from well back without threatening. She was tenth in the G3 Fuchu Himba Stakes start prior when expected to run better in betting. The new 2200m and winless season temper confidence, but her career record keeps a minor case alive.

Returns from a two-month freshening with consistent Group form, having run third in the G2 Sankei Sho All Comers when beaten just under two lengths. She had also placed in the G3 Hokkaido Shimbun Hai Queen Stakes, so her last two efforts are honest. Two wins from four starts at this track is a useful reference, but she was beaten as a fancied runner last time and others bring sharper Group 1 credentials.

Returns from a five-week let-up as the horse to beat after winning the G2 Ireland Trophy (Mermaid Stakes) at Tokyo, coming from a hopeless-looking position to beat Jocelyn by half a length as favourite. That followed a strong second to Embroidery in the G1 Victoria Mile, and she has beaten four of the other leading chances previously. With Yuga Kawada back aboard, she sets the standard.

Resumes after a three-month break following a seventh in the G3 Challenge Cup at Hanshin, where she led but faded to be beaten five and a half lengths at big odds. Her Kokura Kinen third two back was better, just run down late and beaten a length, but she remains untried around 2200m and has been unplaced in both runs at this track. She will have to reproduce her best G3 form to get involved.

Returns from a five-week let-up after finishing eighth in the G2 Ireland Trophy (Mermaid Stakes), beaten five and a half lengths by Kamunyak after settling rearward and closing only fairly. Her G1 Victoria Mile third to Embroidery two back is the stronger reference, and she has a deep Group 2 record with two wins and a placing from four starts. The untried 2200m is a query, but her class keeps her in the winning mix.

Returns from a five-week let-up after a heavy defeat in the G2 Ireland Trophy (Mermaid Stakes), where she held a big lead before compounding and was beaten over 11 lengths by Kamunyak. Her G3 Fuchu Himba Stakes win two back was dominant, beating Win Twilight by three lengths, and she has won at this track. Even so, her 2200m record is unplaced from one try and she has to turn the latest run around markedly.

Resumes from a break after winning the G1 Yushun Himba (Japanese Oaks), producing a sustained finish to beat Dream Core by a neck at Tokyo. She had won a Listed race at Hanshin by two and a half lengths before that and now brings three wins in a row. Four wins from six starts overall and four wins from five with Seina Imamura make her a major threat fresh.

Chasing a third straight win after taking the Listed NIIGATA HIMBA STAKES at Niigata, where she was well-supported and worked home over the top to beat Win Daisy by just under a length. She had beaten the same runner in an ALLOW start prior and is now third-up with five wins and three places from eleven starts overall. Proven at this distance, she profiles as a genuine place chance in stronger company.

Returns from a five-week let-up after going very close in the G2 Ireland Trophy (Mermaid Stakes), charging from an unlikely position to miss Kamunyak by half a length. Her G1 Victoria Mile eighth two back was sound enough from long odds, and she has one win and two places from three starts with Christophe Lemaire. The 2200m is new, but her latest run puts her right among the main chances.

Resumes after a three-month break with a fair but not forceful eighth in the G3 Niigata Kinen, beaten two and a half lengths by Zoroastro after travelling in touch and working home only evenly. Her prior G1 Victoria Mile run was a fading 16th, and she has been unplaced in all four starts in the past 12 months. A previous win at this track is a positive, but current form leaves her short of the leading hopes.

Resumes from a lengthy spell after an excellent third in the G1 Yushun Himba (Japanese Oaks), beaten just over half a length by Juryoku Pierrot after coming from a tough position. She had won the G2 Sankei Sports Sho Flora Stakes before that as favourite, so the three-year-old form has substance. The 2200m is new, but she has placed at every start and can run well fresh.

Returns from a six-week freshening after a strong third in the G2 Kyoto Daishoten at this track, beaten just over a length by Ecoro Dinos in an 18-runner field. Her previous fourth in the G1 Tenno Sho (Spring) at this venue was also close, beaten just over a length at long odds. With two wins and four places from seven starts at this track, she brings the right profile to make a serious impact.

Had every chance when fifth in the Listed NIIGATA HIMBA STAKES at Niigata, beaten just under three lengths by Shadow Meteor after tracking the leaders and failing to go on. She was also eighth in the G3 Hokkaido Shimbun Hai Queen Stakes two back, beaten five and a half lengths. Her career record is honest enough, but she is unplaced from two tries at this distance and looks up against it.

Comments

Returns from a four-month break after a solid second in the G3 Hokkaido Shimbun Hai Queen Stakes, beaten just under a length by Coconuts Brown after finishing strongly. She had earlier run fifth in the G3 Fuchu Himba Stakes, making ground from well back in an eye-catching effort. The untried 2200m and poor track record are the negatives, but her recent Group 3 form gives her each-way claims.
