Mombetsu Race 10 - Race 10 - 1200

VIRTUE (9) brings the most reliable profile, with a second to Iide Heroine at Mombetsu following a third behind Geist Segen, and his record of four wins and four placings from ten starts at this track and distance gives him the strongest overall platform. CLEVER BEN (12) is the main danger on consistency, having finished third behind Iide Heroine before an eye-catching fourth to Universal Love, and her Mombetsu 1200m record keeps her right in the race. CRAFT KING (10) has improved sharply, winning here from Emma Diamond after a big-odds placing the run prior, so the recent form is stronger than his broader record suggests. PEPTIDE AVANCE (2) won as favourite in 3yo+ C3C4 grade and is unbeaten from a placing perspective in four attempts at this track and distance, which makes him a genuine winning chance despite facing a deeper task.

Worked home from well back when second last to Iide Heroine at Mombetsu, beaten seven lengths after being unwanted in the market. That was below his previous second to Honeyberry, where he finished off well and was beaten two and a half lengths. With one win and three placings from seven starts at this track and distance, he has enough profile to be a minor-money player if he rebounds.

Held his form well to win a 3yo+ C3C4 at Mombetsu last start, scoring by a nose over War Cat as favourite. That followed a third to Token Gin Rock when beaten just over a length after being run down late. His four-start track-and-distance record reads two wins and two placings, and that level of consistency gives him a solid each-way footing in this stronger contest.

Finished last at Ohi in 3yo+ C2 grade last start and was never competitive, beaten out of sight after fading late. The run prior was also poor over 1400m at Ohi, where she sat in the right spot before dropping out sharply and being beaten over 13 lengths. A class drop is some help, but the current form leaves her with a lot to turn around.

Made it consecutive Mombetsu placings when third to Taisei Schalt last start, beaten four and a half lengths after having plenty to do in the straight. Two back he was stronger, fighting on for third to Ayasan Jolene and missing by just under a length. His record with Takafumi Hattori is sound, and he profiles as a genuine top-three chance again.

Was safely held in a 3yo COND at Mombetsu last start, finishing seventh to Siamese and beaten nine and a half lengths after settling too far away. Her previous third to Tomoe was much better, beaten just under two lengths after finishing strongly. With three wins and three placings from nine runs at this track and distance, she can lift back into the placings.

Ran third to Satono Frey at Mombetsu last start, beaten just over two lengths despite being unwanted in the market. That was an improvement on her earlier sixth behind the same winner, where she worked home fairly but never threatened. With one win from 22 starts and a distance query in the profile, she will have to find another rise to trouble the stronger chances.

Resumed with a fourth to Satono Frey at Mombetsu, beaten two and a half lengths at long odds after settling rearward. His previous run came back in March at Mizusawa over 1600m, where he was last in 3yo+ B1 grade and beaten a long way. Seven wins from 14 starts says he has ability, but he still has to prove this setup suits against sharper rivals.

Finished last at Mombetsu last start, beaten over 20 lengths after settling well back and making no impact. The start prior was no better over 1600m in 3yo+ B3 company, where she was again last and beaten a long way. She is unplaced from seven starts at this track and distance, and the recent evidence points to a very tough assignment.

Continued a consistent campaign when second to Iide Heroine at Mombetsu, beaten two and a half lengths after finishing strongly and starting near the top of betting. He had been an odds-on favourite when third to Geist Segen the run prior, but the broader record is compelling: four wins and four placings from ten starts at this track and distance. That makes him the runner to beat.

Turned his recent improvement into a Mombetsu win last start, coming over the top to beat Emma Diamond by just under a length at generous odds. That backed up a big-odds third to Queen's Merengue, where he was beaten just under two lengths. The broader strike rate is only fair, but two wins and three placings from ten at this track and distance keep him firmly in the mix.

Picked up well when fourth to Iide Heroine at Mombetsu last start, beaten four and a half lengths at long odds. She had been seventh to Tomoe two back, but that margin was only just over three lengths. Her track-and-distance record is strong and she has an excellent association with Ryoga Fujita, though recent matchups leave her chasing stronger winning claims.

Closed off in eye-catching style when fourth to Universal Love at Mombetsu, beaten just under four lengths after having many lengths to make up. The run prior was a third to Iide Heroine, though she was sent out odds-on and finished behind Virtue. Her overall record here is very solid, and with four wins and seven placings from 15 track-and-distance starts she remains a strong danger.
