Mombetsu Race 8 - Race 8 - 1800

ROSA DORADA (5) Ran 8th last run at this venue. Can show a better performance this time. Will be trying to topple them late. Expect to go close. FORTINBRAS (6) Was fighting out the finish when winning by a head last start at the track and getting better in recent performances. Will give a big sight. MEISHO HARI SON (4) Finished 6th last start at this venue. Can show a better performance this time. Should come to hand quickly. Recent form of Junji Tanaka is strong. Has the ability to take this out. HO O EARNEST (2) Placed 2nd last start around here and has a positive draw. Should muster plenty of early toe. Been in the money 6 from 6 attempts this preparation. Respect in this event.

Comments

Was safely held when eighth at this track first-up, beaten just over nine lengths after giving away a big start and never getting into the race. His previous run was also plain, finishing fifth in B4 grade here and again unwanted in the market. The old track-and-trip wins are noted, but his past-year form leaves him with a sizeable turnaround to produce.

Went close as favourite at this track last start, working into the race stylishly before finishing second to Blast Black and beaten just under a length. He had also been second here two weeks earlier, so his form has held up well through this campaign. With a win and five placings from six starts at this venue, plus Yamato Ishikawa back aboard, he sets the standard and looks ready to convert.

Bounced back strongly at this track last start, running second to Telemachus and beaten only a neck at big odds. That was a clear lift on his previous eighth, when he gave away too much ground and was never a factor. His track-and-distance record includes a win and three placings from nine attempts, so he has enough substance to stay in the minor-money mix.

Returns from a six-week freshening after finishing sixth in B3 grade at this track, beaten just under six lengths and only fair through the line. His run prior was another plain B3 effort over 1500m. The class drop, third-up setting and three wins from five starts at this venue all help, but he has to show much more sharpness to win this.

Back after a two-month freshening following a first-up eighth in B3 grade at this track, where she conceded a big start and was always chasing. The Hanshin Dirt Mdn run before that was also well below market expectation, so the recent figures are not flattering. Even so, she is lightly raced, drops in class and has placed four times from six starts, giving her genuine rebound appeal.

Broke through at this track last start, winning a C3 by a neck from Kazushi as odds-on favourite. That followed a sound second to Kamuino Utage in C3C4 company, where he picked up well late after being near the top of betting. His one win and two placings from three starts at the distance read well, and he has the right profile to run prominently again.

Finished off well for third behind Telemachus at this track last start, beaten just over three lengths at generous odds. The concern is that his previous run was a distant ninth when he settled back and made no impression. Still a maiden after 11 starts, and while he has placed at the distance, a sharper overall performance is required.

Has finished fifth at his past two starts at this track, most recently beaten eight and a half lengths behind Telemachus after working home evenly. The start prior was more competitive, beaten four lengths at long odds. His track-and-distance record is respectable, with a win and three placings from six, but he looks reliant on finding a stronger finish late.
