Mombetsu Race 7 - Race 7 - 1200
MECHANIC BALLET (10) looks the most reliable of the main chances after improving sharply to run second at Mombetsu last start, beaten two lengths by Suzuno Bon Raimi after looming and fighting on. The win is still to come, but she has placed twice from five starts and brings the clearest recent 1200m performance. MANA MOANA (6) has the proven Mombetsu 1200m profile, having beaten Miss Kanoya Rosa by three lengths two runs back before a plain second-last behind Stargazer. SANDSTURM (12) was disappointing as short odds-on favourite when fifth to Stargazer, yet the margin was only just over three lengths and the stable-jockey profile keeps her in the contest. ISN'T IT (9) is harder to recommend for the win on recent margins, but class relief and the booking of Yamato Ishikawa give her some claims underneath if she improves off the freshening.

Beaten over 10 lengths as odds-on favourite over 1000m at Mombetsu last start, settling midfield and proving only fair late behind Desert Eagle. The Niigata Dirt run prior was also a sixth, beaten eight and a half lengths at long odds, though she did work home fairly. The class drop and fourth-up profile help, but the rise to 1200m must bring improvement before she becomes more than a place prospect.

Recent figures read poorly, with a seventh at Mombetsu last start when unwanted in the market and beaten over 15 lengths by Suzuno Bon Raimi. She was also seventh here two runs back, beaten ten lengths by Bear Bruges without ever looking a winning hope. A prior track-and-trip win is respected, but current form says she needs a marked lift.

Last two runs at Sapporo Dirt offer little encouragement, most recently ninth over 1700m and beaten over 16 lengths by Hey Jude after settling rearward and making no late impression. She was beaten a long way by Proofreading at the same trip the run prior and was unwanted in the market. The drop in class is a small positive, but she has plenty to prove back to 1200m.

Worked home from an impossible position when sixth to Stargazer at Mombetsu last start, beaten three and a half lengths at long odds. That was better than the starting price suggested, and she had also made some ground over 1000m the week before. Her record of one win from 65 starts keeps the ceiling low, but the 52kg and proven track-and-trip background give her a minor hope.

Made late ground from well back when seventh to Stargazer here last start, beaten just over five lengths, but he was never likely to feature. His fourth to Bear Bruges two runs back was similar in shape, with a finish that looked better than the beaten seven lengths. The return of Yoji Kamei is a plus given their record together, but he needs to turn late effort into a more competitive result.

Had the market's respect at Mombetsu last start but could finish only second last behind Stargazer, beaten just over five lengths after working home evenly. That was a step down from her previous win here, where she beat Miss Kanoya Rosa by three lengths as a well-supported favourite. Proven at the track and distance and likely to put herself into the race, she remains a strong winning chance if she rebounds.

Returns from a two-month break after finishing ninth over 1800m at Niigata Dirt, beaten over 11 lengths by Bright Run as an outside chance in the betting. The Tokyo run before that was another midfield-to-rear performance, 11th and beaten nine and a half lengths by Ruling Class. This is easier than those mainland maiden assignments, but he must produce more sharpness at 1200m.

Finished fourth to Suzuno Bon Raimi at Mombetsu last start, but the beaten margin was over 14 lengths despite picking up in the straight. Her previous third behind Sakura Stream reads better, beaten just over two lengths at the same course. She has a track-and-trip win and has placed twice from three rides with Takafumi Hattori, yet the latest margin demands a clear response.

Returns from a two-month break after finishing second last over 1500m at Sapporo, beaten over 10 lengths by Inubono Utagoe when unwanted in the market. Her Hakodate run prior was a sixth, beaten nine lengths by Ho O The Royal, and she did finish ahead of Mechanic Ballet there. The class drop and Yamato Ishikawa booking help, but she needs sharper execution back in trip.

Lifted sharply at Mombetsu last start, finishing second to Suzuno Bon Raimi over this course and distance and beaten two lengths after looming and fighting on. That was a much better run than her Sapporo Dirt eighth over 1700m, where she was unwanted in betting and beaten over 14 lengths. Still a maiden, but fourth-up and back in suitable company, she sets a solid standard for this field.

Returns from a three-month break after finishing eighth at Fukushima, beaten three lengths by Shine For Me in a 3yo Maiden when just fair through the line. The run prior had more merit, a fourth to Iron Pike at big odds after making ground from well back. She remains unplaced from three starts and has a distance query, but that June effort gives her enough substance for a place case.

Beaten just over three lengths when fifth to Stargazer at Mombetsu last start, which was disappointing given she started short odds-on favourite after leading and only working home evenly. Her Sapporo Dirt run before that was plain over 1700m, but the return here brought her closer and she beat Mana Moana home in that latest meeting. With Genta Ochiai and Junji Tanaka, she deserves another chance.
