Saga Race 2 - Race 2 - 1300
KASHINO TSUKIYOMI (3) Ran well when 2nd last start around here on a heavy surface and returns to an increased distance. Has plenty of early speed. Must be considered. LADY BONBON (9) Came in 4th last run at the track. Expecting improvement here and back to an increased distance. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. In the mix. PRAYER ONLY (4) Unimpressive effort when 7th last run at this track. Likely to get back in the run. Well placed and has solid claims. AZZURRI PALACE (7) Ran 6th last run at this track. Overlooking the last run. Should be going forward early. Must respect in this event.

Returns from a one-month freshening after finishing seventh over 1500m at Mombetsu, beaten seven and a half lengths by Virgin Rainbow when near the top of an open market. His previous run over 1100m was only fair after sitting just off the pace and battling, so the new 1300m set-up carries some query. Race fitness and a leading track jockey help his case, and he still profiles as a serious winning threat in this line-up.

Returns from a two-month break after dropping out sharply to finish last at this track, beaten over 18 lengths at big odds. The start prior was worse, finishing seventh and beaten out of sight after settling rearward. She has had five tries at this track and distance without placing, so while race fitness is on her side, the recent form leaves her as a minor hope only if sharp improvement arrives.

Showed the right improvement when second at this track last start, leading to the turn before being claimed and still battling away behind Magissa Kirke. He was beaten a long way the run prior, and his two previous attempts around 1300m have not produced a placing, but he is fitter again fourth-up and has now shown he can sustain a run under race pressure. That latest placing makes him the one to beat.

Finished seventh behind Davay Ho O last start, beaten seven and a half lengths after getting a long way back and making some late ground without threatening. He had been beaten eight lengths at this track the run before, when in touch but gone soon after. His one placing from three starts at this track and distance gives him some base, though he shapes more as a place hope than a strong win play.

Has finished fourth in both runs, most recently beaten five lengths behind Davay Ho O at this track after settling rearward at long odds. Her debut was less convincing despite starting odds-on favourite, beaten over 13 lengths in a small field after sitting behind the leaders. She is third-up now and lightly raced, which leaves some room to improve, but the winning edge still has to come.

Has been tailed off at both recent Kasamatsu runs, finishing sixth behind Lacrime last start after conceding a huge start and never getting into the race. The run prior was another distant effort when fifth behind Satsuki Quantum. She is unplaced from seven starts overall and has not placed in five attempts around 1300m, so a major form turnaround is required.

Worked home evenly when sixth behind Davay Ho O at this track last start, beaten just over seven lengths at big odds. That was at least cleaner than her previous run, when second last and tailed off behind Timbre Tesoro after settling rearward. She has placed once from three starts at this venue, but recent figures say she will have to lift markedly to trouble the main hopes.

Loomed up and kept finding when fifth behind Davay Ho O at this track last start, beaten just under six lengths at generous odds. Two back he was officially fourth but still tailed off behind Timbre Tesoro, despite picking up in the straight. He has beaten Kashino Tsukiyomi at this venue before, but with no placing from three track-and-distance tries, he looks an each-way chance at best.

Made up good ground in the run home when fourth behind Magissa Kirke at this track last start, though the beaten margin was still over 12 lengths. Her previous third came when well found in an open market, and she has placed at her only start around 1300m. The recent head-to-head with Kashino Tsukiyomi is mixed, but she has enough grounding to be a realistic minor player.
