Nagoya Race 4 - Race 4 - 1500
JASPER LEON (2) Nice run when 2nd last time at the track and will try to take advantage of the barrier. Souichi Katou and Teruya Tsunoda have a high strike rate together. Is in good order and can run well. TAMI VALENCIA (10) Ran 7th last run at this venue. Can make a comeback. The wide barrier shouldn't be a problem with plenty of early speed. Must be considered. ZEEBRUGGE (1) Finished 5th last time at this venue but has minimal work to do from the alley. Up to these. ANFAR (9) Tidy effort when 3rd last time at the track. Right in this.

Improved at this track last start when fifth in a C2, beaten just over two lengths by Ric To Memma after being rated an outside chance in the betting. That was a much sounder effort than her previous C1 run, when she finished last and was never in the picture. The class drop is a help, though she is still winless after 31 starts and has only placed at around 1500m. A repeat of the latest run keeps her firmly in the winning mix.

Returned in excellent order this campaign, winning a COND at this track by three lengths from Win Moana before backing it up with a solid second to Copano Lucas. He was near the top of betting both times and has one win and one placing from two starts at this venue. Proven at the trip and reunited with the winning rider, he looks well placed to take full advantage of the class drop.

Has been well held in two B1 runs at this track, finishing eighth behind Hunkster and then tenth to Toppi Go when beaten over 15 lengths at long odds. She does have past wins around 1500m, but the immediate form is hard to overlook and she is unplaced in all ten starts at this track and distance. The class drop helps only if she can find a much sharper finish.

Has lost form through the past two starts, finishing last behind Sacrifice and then second last to Ppallippalli Rise in C3 company when beaten eight lengths at big odds. The latest run offered little after travelling in touch, so there was no obvious excuse. With one win from 46 starts and no placing from 13 attempts at this track and distance, others bring stronger claims.

Comes off two well-beaten seventh placings at this track, most recently in C1 grade when unwanted in the market and beaten over 15 lengths by Armored Truck. The run prior over 2000m was also plain after he weakened out of contention. Weight relief and class drop are positives, and he has won at around 1500m, but his recent finishing efforts leave him with plenty to find.

Has been giving away big starts and failing to get into the race, finishing second last behind Sammaru Reve before a seventh to Hiraboku Hero when beaten over 11 lengths at long odds. Her overall record contains six wins, including form at this distance range, but she is unplaced from 13 starts in the past 12 months. The class drop is not enough to offset that current profile.

Latest seventh behind Land Of Fire was below what he will likely require, but he was only beaten just over five lengths and now finds a softer assignment. The run prior was much weaker when second last behind Sacrifice, so there is a form query. His 1500m record is sound, with four wins and nine placings from 25 starts around the trip, and that gives him a realistic minor-money profile.

Returns from a six-week freshening after a first-up seventh behind Hakusan Mignon, beaten four and a half lengths in B1 company at this track. He lacked a change of gears there, but this is a more suitable assignment and his previous run produced a three-length win over Dragon Girl at this venue. With four wins and ten placings from 52 starts at this track and distance, he can improve into a placing.

Returns off a five-week freshening in consistent form, having won by a neck from Meiner Slava before a sound third to Kafuji Raclette. Both recent runs came at this track and she was an outside chance in the betting each time, which adds merit to the results. Her track-and-distance record is one win and three placings from nine starts, and with the light weight she profiles as the main danger.

Returns from a one-month break after finishing seventh behind Bellagio Channel over 1700m, where she did not quicken and was beaten eight and a half lengths. Her previous fourth to Swing Boy was fair rather than threatening, though she did beat Zeebrugge at this track about a month ago. Back to a winning distance and with five track-and-distance wins, she has a case only if recent form sharpens.

Last start was poor, finishing last behind Toppi Go in B1 grade and beaten over 17 lengths after settling back and making no impression. The start prior was far better, a fifth to Informant over 2000m when beaten just under four lengths at long odds. She has a positive rider record and some 1500m consistency, but the latest defeat keeps her more in the place bracket than the winning discussion.
