Mombetsu Race 11 - Race 11 - 1200

DESTELLO (6) Mediocre attempt when 5th last time at this track. Is capable of a resurgence and strong performer at this trip. Prominent showing expected and won't be far off them. SPECIAL X (2) Has multiple wins when resuming. Finished 4th last start at Kasamatsu. Has the ability to turn things around and will be well suited at the trip. Gets a favourable draw. Winning prospect. KAPPAGI (4) Finished 4th last time at this track. Likely to bounce back. Masaaki Kuwamura does know the horse very well. Should be competitive in this race at a bit of odds. RICOCHET (3) Came in 5th last time around here. Looking past the last run. Should be going forward early. Not out of this.

Closed off well from a rearward spot when fourth to Der Flug at this track, beaten just under two lengths despite being unwanted in the market. The run prior was only last of seven behind Lucky Hope, so his recent profile is mixed, and he has been unplaced in all seven starts across the past 12 months. Proven at this track and distance, but he looks a minor chance unless the race falls his way.

Returns from a five-month break after finishing fourth in a 4yo+ COND at Kasamatsu, beaten three lengths by K's Reve when near the top of an open market. His earlier COND win at this track was decisive, beating Candy Drive by three lengths as a short odds-on favourite. The 59kg impost is the leveller, but eight wins from eleven at this track and distance keep him firmly in the place mix.

Comments

Was safely held when fifth over 1000m at this track last start, beaten just under four lengths after settling midfield and failing to make a serious impact. Two back she was also well back before finishing off only fairly behind Keiai Dorie. Her track-and-distance record gives some hope, and she has recent form around Kappagi, but she must lift to be more than an outside place chance.

Comments

Produced another strong late effort when fourth over 1000m at this track, beaten three and a half lengths after settling well back, and the return to 1200m suits a horse with 16 wins and 15 placings from 52 attempts around the trip. He was beaten only a neck by Der Flug two runs ago at big odds, has an excellent record with Masaaki Kuwamura, and looks well placed to turn that consistency into a deserved win.

Comments

Was close enough in the run at this track last start but could not pick up when sixth to Der Flug, beaten just over three lengths at long odds. The previous run was more concerning, finishing seventh and beaten over 14 lengths behind Nishiken Bob after having every chance. A class drop gives him some help, but he has to find a sharper finish to trouble the main hopes.

Had his chance first-up at this track when fifth as the short odds-on favourite, beaten just over two lengths by Der Flug after looming and not going on. The start prior was a narrow win from Pink Venom at this venue, and his broader 1200m record is outstanding with ten wins and four placings from 18 attempts. Second-up, he remains a genuine finishing chance with the class to improve on that return.
