Mombetsu Race 2 - Race 2 - 1000
CUPITUS (6) is the one to beat after a clear last-start lift, finishing third here behind Star Rhodonite and beaten two lengths after making strong ground. His run prior also had merit from well back on good ground, and the track-and-distance placing gives him the most convincing recent profile. MARGOT (12) is the main danger, having bounced back from a plain run to finish second to Sudare, beaten two and a half lengths, while her 1000m placing and Junji Tanaka stable add substance. JAM RESTEAL (2) returns from six weeks off a third to Banshee Harpy and had also flashed home from a hopeless position two back, so the form is better than the winless record reads. MIRAIENO HEROINE (9) improved to fourth behind Will Matic and was respected in an open market, though she still has to build on that after a heavy defeat the start prior.

Was never likely when eighth at Mombetsu last start, beaten over 12 lengths behind Meloni after settling with too much to do at big odds. The run prior was better when fourth to Afro Kero, beaten five lengths, but he has now missed a place in five starts and is unplaced in four tries at this track and distance. The class drop helps only so far; a sharper finish is required.

Returns from a six-week let-up after finishing third at Mombetsu behind Banshee Harpy, beaten three and a half lengths when near the top of betting and close enough at the turn. Her previous seventh reads better than it looks, as she came from a hopeless position to finish strongly behind Luminous One. With Yamato Ishikawa back aboard, she has a genuine winning profile if she reproduces that latest run.

Has been beaten a long way at her past two Mombetsu runs, finishing second last behind Star Rhodonite last start after settling back and making no impression. She was also eighth to Will Eiger two back, beaten over 15 lengths at long odds. The 52kg weight and class drop are positives, but the recent form line leaves her with a steep task.

Improved into fourth at Mombetsu last start, beaten four and a half lengths behind Lucky Daughter after pressing forward and holding a handy position before flattening late. That was a clear step up from her seventh to Lady Coco at long odds. She remains unplaced from seven starts, so the winning edge is still missing, but the latest run gives her a realistic minor-money chance.

Finished second last at Mombetsu behind Ba Schnell last start, beaten over 17 lengths after being miles back and failing to improve. The run prior was no better, again second last and beaten over 17 lengths behind Maho while unwanted in the market. He is unplaced from nine starts and has not placed in six with this jockey, so others present much stronger claims.

Produced his best run this campaign when third at Mombetsu last start, beaten two lengths behind Star Rhodonite after charging home from well back. That followed a sixth to Promessa Reza where he also made solid ground at big odds, so the pattern is heading the right way. A track-and-distance placing supports the profile, and his recent form makes him the clear horse to beat.

Returns from a one-month freshening after finishing last behind Aquarium at Mombetsu, beaten just over eight lengths when never in the picture. Her fifth to Cascade Loop two back was only moderate, also beaten eight and a half lengths at big odds. She is third-up and drops in class, but the three career runs have yet to produce a placing, so improvement must be substantial.

Comes back from 1500m after finishing sixth at Mombetsu, beaten six and a half lengths behind Virgin Rainbow as an outside chance in betting. His previous fifth to Light Beans was similarly honest without threatening, with only a moderate final effort. He has placed once from seven and brings enough consistency for minor claims, though the drop back to 1000m is the clear query.

Lifted sharply when fourth at Mombetsu last start, beaten four lengths behind Will Matic after settling just off the lead and battling on well. That was a strong turnaround from a last placing behind Oryza Nova, where she was beaten over 15 lengths and unwanted in betting. With Genta Ochiai taking the ride, she looks a genuine place hope if the latest effort was the true guide.

Has been around the mark in recent Mombetsu runs, finishing fifth behind Sudare last start when beaten four lengths and near the top of an open market. He was fourth to Promessa Reza the run prior, beaten just under four lengths, and that form also had him ahead of Cupitus. Margot had his measure last time, but his recent consistency keeps him in the place discussion.

Was last at Mombetsu last week behind Misao and was well beaten after still being back at the turn. His debut was also a long way below the required level, finishing second last behind Queen's Family at long odds and failing to improve. Third-up fitness and the class drop are positives in theory, but race evidence says he has plenty to find.

Rebounded strongly at Mombetsu last start, leading and finishing second to Sudare, beaten two and a half lengths while near the top of an open market. That was a much better effort than her last placing behind Livermore Zan, where she was swamped after holding a narrow lead. With a 1000m placing already on the board and Yuji Iwahashi back aboard, she rates as a serious winning chance.
