Nagoya Race 3 - Race 3 - 1500
IBERIS AMARA (1) Unsatisfactory performance when 12th last run here but has drawn to do little work. Should be swooping on the field late. Looks promising in this race. EISENHEIM (7) Unimpressive effort when 11th last run at this venue. Can take this out. SOVEREIGN'S ORB (9) Finished 6th last start at this track. Is capable of a resurgence. Possesses very good closing speed. Gets a chance to win. KAIKIAS (4) Only fair when 9th last run at the track. Seigo Tsukamoto and Hiroyuki Imazu make a formidable team. Should muster plenty of early speed. Can be competitive.

Was tailed off at this track last start in a COND, giving away a big start and never getting into the race behind Ecoro Zelda. His previous ninth at Niigata in a Mdn reads better, beaten four lengths despite being unwanted in the market. The class drop and third-up fitness give him some way back into the contest, but he has to leave that latest run well behind to be a genuine place factor.

Finished eighth at this track last start in a COND and was beaten a long way after settling rearward and making no late impact. She had also been well beaten at this venue the run prior, again at long odds. The C3 class drop is a small positive, but eight previous starts around 1500m for no placings underlines the scale of the improvement required.

Comes through a COND at this track where he was eighth behind Sun Road, beaten over 12 lengths after being in touch before weakening. That followed a well-held 12th in a Niigata Dirt Mdn, so the exposed form is not clean, but the class drop, race fitness and fourth-up timing are all in his favour. Sovereign's Orb had his measure recently, yet this looks a suitable chance to close the gap.

Resumed with a ninth at this track in a COND, beaten over 20 lengths after travelling in the right spot before dropping out sharply. He was safely held at Kyoto Dirt before that, so the recent form asks for caution. The rider and trainer profiles are positives in this grade, and the class drop can help second-up, but he profiles more as a place hope than a firm win play.

Finished well held at this track last start in a COND, beaten 21 lengths by Ecoro Zelda after giving away a big start. The run prior was no stronger, beaten a long way in a Chukyo Dirt Mdn when unwanted in the market. Third-up fitness and a class drop are on her side, but she has been unplaced in all six starts and must lift substantially.

Was near the top of an open market at this track last start but finished last, well beaten by 22 lengths behind Ho O Parsons after coming under pressure late. He had also been beaten over 18 lengths at this venue the run prior, which makes the betting respect difficult to trust. The jockey booking is useful, but four unplaced tries around 1500m leave him with plenty to prove.

Tracked the speed at this track last start but did not quicken, finishing second last and beaten over 16 lengths in a COND behind Iron. His previous eighth at this venue was similar, as he settled handy and could not offer a challenge. The C3 class drop is some assistance, but his record at the track and distance is still without a placing and others look better placed.

Made little impact at this track last start when eighth in a COND, beaten over 20 lengths by Ecoro Zelda after giving away too much ground. She had been last at Sapporo before that and beaten a long way at big odds, so there is no recent finishing strength to lean on. The class drop and third-up fitness are positives, but she must show far more to trouble the main chances.

Produced the best recent pointer when sixth in a COND at this track, beaten over 10 lengths behind Sun Road after coming under pressure late. That was a clear enough step forward from a well-held Chukyo Dirt Mdn run, and she also beat Dagobert in that latest meeting. Her 1500m record is still winless, but the C3 drop, third-up fitness and distance rating make her the runner to beat.

Finished seventh at this track last start in a COND, beaten over 18 lengths by Ecoro Zelda after giving away a big start and never featuring. His Chukyo Dirt Mdn run prior was also plain, but he was an outside chance in betting last time and rates well enough on the last-12-months profile for this field. The 1500m record is winless, so he looks a place chance with improvement rather than a standout.

Finished sixth at this track last start in a COND, beaten over 16 lengths by Ecoro Zelda after settling rearward and weakening late. Her previous Chukyo run over 2200m was also well held, so she is not coming through dominant form. Even so, the class drop, race fitness and recent ratings keep her firmly in the winning mix, provided she can produce a stronger final section.
