Mombetsu Race 1 - Race 1 - 1500
VAINQUEUR (1) looks the most reliable form reference after chasing home Overcrowd at Mombetsu, beaten a length and a half, and his previous fourth behind Malatang was also sound enough for this grade. He has placed at the track and distance, so the winning case is clear even if he still has to convert. ASTER RAY (9) is the sharper improver, coming off a second to Naranga where she was strong late, and third-up she looks ready for 1500m if the rise in trip does not blunt that finish. AYASAN COME BACK (6) has been beaten in fifth at her past two, but she was respected in open markets and made ground last time, which keeps her in the argument with class relief. MIRAVIE (8) is the risk-and-reward runner: his last-start failure as favourite was poor, yet the head second to Bellagio Miraggio two back is good enough to put him right in the finish if he rebounds.

Went close behind Overcrowd at Mombetsu last start, finishing second and beaten a length and a half after being near the top of betting. The run prior was a fourth to Malatang, beaten four lengths, so the recent form has held together without yet producing a win. Placed two times from four starts here and already placed at the distance, he has the right profile to break through if he takes his chance.

Lifted into third behind Overcrowd at Mombetsu last start, though the six-and-a-half-length margin says he still has ground to make up on the stronger hopes. His previous fifth over 1100m came after conceding a big start and being unwanted in the market. The return of a rider who has placed on him is a small plus, but the Vainqueur form line leaves him looking more a place chance than a winning one.

Worked home fairly from well back on debut at Mombetsu over 1000m, finishing fifth to Charter and beaten nine and a half lengths at long odds. That gives him some foundation second-up, but he was never a winning factor and now rises sharply to 1500m. There is scope for natural improvement, although he needs a much more competitive position in the race.

Was only moderate late when fifth to Light Beans at Mombetsu over 1100m last start, beaten seven and a half lengths at generous odds. His previous fourth behind Oryza Nova had more merit after he caught the eye from well back, so there is at least one recent run to like. The jump to 1500m is the obvious query, but he can run into a minor cheque if he reproduces that better finish.

Has been safely held at her past two Mombetsu runs, most recently seventh to Aquarium over 1100m when beaten just under seven lengths at long odds. She had earlier finished sixth to Afro Kero over 1000m after only working home evenly. Unplaced in all five starts here and now rising to 1500m, she needs a sizeable turnaround to trouble these.

Made up good ground when fifth to Bellagio Miraggio at Mombetsu last start, although the margin of just over eight lengths keeps the performance in perspective. Two back she was again fifth to Malatang, beaten six and a half lengths, after sitting handy and not quickening. Market respect in both runs and class relief keep her among the better chances, provided 1500m proves within reach.

Dropped out sharply when ninth behind Overcrowd at Mombetsu last start and was well beaten after starting at big odds. The start prior was no better, finishing seventh to Bellagio Miraggio and beaten over 10 lengths. He remains unplaced from nine starts at this track, and while the class drop is noted, recent evidence says he must improve markedly.

Failed badly as favourite behind Overcrowd at Mombetsu last start, finishing eighth and beaten over 20 lengths after offering little late. The counterpoint is his previous second to Bellagio Miraggio, where he went down by a head after fighting hard from a forward position. A repeat of that run makes him competitive, but punters must forgive a very plain latest effort.

Improved sharply second-up when runner-up to Naranga at Mombetsu over 1200m, beaten five lengths but very strong through the closing stages. Her debut fifth behind Bellagio Evans also had merit after she gave away a big start and worked home fairly. Third-up fitness is a positive and the rider return helps, though the step to 1500m remains the key question.

Came from a long way back when sixth to Overcrowd at Mombetsu last start, but he was still beaten over 12 lengths and started unwanted in the market. His previous eighth to Malatang was also plain, beaten over 10 lengths at big odds. Unplaced from five starts here, he would need more than class relief to turn the form around.

Only battled after sitting just off the pace when sixth to Light Beans at Mombetsu over 1100m last start, beaten just over eight lengths. His debut fourth behind Moon Sprite was more encouraging, as he picked up well after racing close and was beaten six lengths. Third-up improvement is possible, but the rise to 1500m makes him a place hope rather than a strong win play.

Ran fourth behind Overcrowd at Mombetsu last start, beaten eight and a half lengths after being run down late, which was a clear improvement on her previous ninth to Queue Balancee when beaten out of sight. She has placed once at the distance and was an outside chance in betting last time, but barrier 12 and the mixed recent record make her a fringe each-way hope only.
