Mombetsu Race 9 - Race 9 - 1800

DIVING CATCH (11) Nice run when 3rd last run around here and demonstrating upward trajectory in recent races. Has the speed to overcome the wide barrier. Can get the job done. LOVE LEGAL (10) Came in 6th last run at the track. This field suits. FULL VOGUE (6) Came in 4th last start at this venue. Always seems to find the line well. Will be there at the finish. MAD HEAD LOVE (4) Did well when 3rd last run around here and returning to a longer distance. Expecting to settle positively. Genta Ochiai usually performs well for this stable. One of the major players.

Worked home from the rear when sixth to Glam Edge at this track last start, beaten just under seven lengths after going around an outside chance in the betting. The start prior was better, closing strongly for third behind Night Sailing, albeit still beaten seven lengths. He has placed twice from seven starts around 1800m and can run into the minors, but the maiden record keeps the winning case in check.

Comments

Finished sixth to Ho O Minster at this track last start, beaten just over nine lengths at big odds after giving herself too much to do and only working home fairly. Her previous fourth behind Cordiality was also well held after looming without going on. The class relief helps, and she has placed at this track and distance, but her overall maiden record demands a far sharper finish.

Comments

Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing third at Sonoda, but that placing flatters the result as she was never competitive and was beaten out of sight behind Fidelis. She had earlier finished 13th at Chukyo Dirt when unwanted in the market. With no win from seven starts and a thin 1800m record, she has to find a much stronger level to threaten.

Showed more last start when third over 1200m at this track, though she was still beaten ten lengths after being close enough to make a stronger challenge. The run prior at Fukushima Dirt was well below the mark, fading to finish 11th at long odds. The winning rider returns and she can race handy, but the step back to 1800m, where she is yet to place, makes her a place hope rather than a confident winning play.

Was second last behind Glam Edge at this track last start, beaten over 11 lengths after settling miles back and failing to make any impression. The previous fifth behind Night Sailing was similar, also beaten over 11 lengths despite some late fairness. She is a past winner at this venue and reunites with a successful rider, but recent form leaves her with plenty to turn around.

Closed into fourth behind Cool Kagura at this track last start, beaten two and a half lengths, and that followed a sharp win over 1200m when he came from a long way back to beat Seiran Kurofune. His partnership with Ryu Abe has produced regular placings, which supports the case. The 1800m record is the sticking point, but recent form makes him a genuine player for the finish.

Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing 12th at Chukyo Dirt, beaten over 16 lengths and never in the picture after giving away a big start. His fourth there six days earlier was also safely held, beaten nine and a half lengths. The class drop is a positive on paper, but an unplaced record from eight starts leaves him with a significant task.

Produced a strong response last start when second to Cool Kagura at this track, beaten only half a length at long odds after working home evenly. That was a clear rebound from his ninth behind Ho O Minster, when he failed to come into the race despite market respect. His 1800m profile is more reliable for placings than wins, but the latest effort gives him a solid winning platform here.

Returns from a two-month break with the right class profile for this. He was eighth to Wonder Xuan over 2000m at Niigata, beaten five and a half lengths after lacking a turn of foot, and the previous run at Niigata Dirt was too bad to judge him solely on. The back to 1800m asks a small question, but the class relief and recent ratings make this a suitable race for him to win.

Picked up nicely when sixth to Cool Kagura at this track last start, beaten just under four lengths despite being unwanted in the market. Two back he ran third behind Ho O Minster, though the seven-length margin shows he was not a serious winning threat. His track-and-distance record is honest for placings, with six minors from ten attempts, so he maps as a sound place chance again.

Held third behind Glam Edge at this track last start, beaten just over five lengths after battling on rather than quickening. The run prior had merit in context, as he was a well-supported favourite over 1000m but settled too far back before finishing fourth to Good Time Ask. He has placed three times from eight starts at this venue and brings enough consistency to be a strong winning hope.

Comments

Ran her best race for some time when fifth to Cool Kagura at this track last start, beaten three and a half lengths at big odds after making late ground from well back. That came after a second-last finish behind Ho O Minster, beaten over 17 lengths and never involved. She is proven at this venue and trip, but an unplaced 21-run stretch over the past 12 months is hard to ignore.
