Mombetsu Race 8 - Race 8 - 1200
JO BOOK BOW (4) sets the standard in a race where the main chances all have some qualification. She was third behind Stargazer over 1200m at Mombetsu two weeks ago, beaten a length and a half, and that was a clear step forward from her Sapporo effort over 2000m. SUPER PARTY (10) has to rebound from a sixth to Suzuno Bon Raimi when beaten over 15 lengths, but his broader record is more reliable than that run, with one win and twelve places from 27 starts and three placings from seven attempts at this track and distance. CHAMPION ROAD (11) brings the class-relief angle after two Chukyo runs, though the beaten margins mean he is not without risk. DERMA HARUNA (8) was beaten favourite over 1000m here and now has to stretch to 1200m, but she remains lightly raced and capable of filling a prominent role if she improves from that last-start sixth.

Has been safely held at both recent Mombetsu runs, finishing fifth to Suzuno Bon Raimi last start when beaten over 15 lengths at long odds. The start prior was only fair, with a sixth behind Bear Bruges after being unwanted in the market. A previous track-and-trip win is noted, but current form leaves her with a sizeable task to turn the tables.

Produced a much better run here last start, finishing second to Stargazer over 1200m and beaten half a length despite being unwanted in the market. That was a notable lift from her fifth behind Bear Bruges, where she was handy enough but did not finish off. She also finished ahead of Jo Book Bow in that latest meeting, though the maiden record keeps her more a place hope than a win anchor.

Returns from a two-month break after a weak 12th over 2000m at Sapporo, where he settled rearward and gave ground when beaten over 15 lengths. His prior ninth at Hakodate Dirt was similar, never looking likely from well back. The class drop and race fitness are positives in theory, but six unplaced starts make him hard to recommend.

Improved sharply at Mombetsu last start, working home evenly for third behind Stargazer over 1200m and beaten a length and a half in an open market. The previous Sapporo run over 2000m was poor, but this shorter local assignment clearly suited better. Lightly raced and now fourth-up, she has enough upward movement to be one of the main winning chances.

Ran her best race this campaign when fourth to Stargazer at Mombetsu, beaten three lengths at big odds. That was a clear improvement on the prior tenth behind Sakura Stream, when she was near the top of betting but made no headway. The issue is that she remains unplaced from six starts, so the latest run gives her minor-money claims rather than a robust winning profile.

Worked home fairly without ever threatening when sixth behind Sakura Stream here, beaten just under five lengths. Two back she was closer, finishing fourth to Marino Stir Heart and beaten a length and a half after racing within touch. The Mombetsu 1200m record includes a placing from four tries, and with Genta Ochiai booked she can run into the money again.

Returns from a four-month spell after finishing last behind Story Of Love at Tokyo Dirt, beaten a long way and unwanted in the market. Her previous run at Nakayama Dirt was also well held when tenth to Kualoa Ranch. Junji Tanaka's stable adds interest and there is class relief, but she has yet to place from three starts and needs a marked lift first-up.

Was sent out favourite over 1000m at Mombetsu last start but could only finish sixth to Ficus Lyrata, beaten three lengths after sitting just off the lead. The run prior was a plain last at Sapporo Dirt when beaten over 15 lengths. She is lightly raced and has placed once from five starts, but the rise to 1200m is a genuine query for a win play.

Comes back after one week following a heavy defeat behind Best Green at Mombetsu, where he settled rearward and was beaten a long way. His previous ninth behind Sakura Stream was also at big odds and never seriously threatening. He has placed often enough across a long career, but no wins from 47 starts leaves others with stronger claims.

Has to improve on a plain sixth behind Suzuno Bon Raimi at Mombetsu, where he was beaten over 15 lengths without a clear excuse. His wider profile is better than that, with one win and twelve places from 27 starts and three placings from seven at this track and distance. If he returns to his steadier form, he remains a serious player in this field.

Returns from a one-month freshening after finishing last at Chukyo over 1600m, beaten over 15 lengths when unwanted in the market. His debut ninth over 1400m was more encouraging from a betting perspective, as he was near the top of an open market. Third-up and with class relief, he has a case, though the recent margins demand trust.

Returns from a one-month freshening after being second last over 1700m at Sapporo Dirt, well beaten by 26 lengths at long odds. Two back she was 12th at Sapporo over 1500m and again beaten over 15 lengths after settling rearward. The class drop is something, but the recent form is too plain to make her a serious betting proposition.
