Saga Race 1 - Race 1 - 1300
LUMINOUS BOUQUET (3) Ran 4th last start at the track. Has the ability to turn things around. Will be competitive. TWINKLE VITA (4) Disappointing run when 7th last run here but promising career start. Exhibiting good form this campaign. Winning hope. DAIMEI SAGA (7) Looked good when 2nd last start here and solid career start. In a purple patch of form since resuming from a break. Should be competitive in this race at a bit of odds. HAW WONDER (11) Competitive effort when 3rd last time at this track and good career start. Very competitive this campaign. Appears well in this.

Stepped up into second at this track last week, but the margin was still seven lengths behind Grandioso and he never looked a genuine threat to the winner. The previous fifth, beaten just under six lengths behind Davay Ho O, was honest without being sharp. He has placed once from four tries around this track and distance, so a minor cheque looks his ceiling unless he finds several lengths.

Returns from a one-month freshening after a fifth at Sonoda over 820m, where he held a midfield spot to the turn before only battling and finishing beaten six and a half lengths. His prior sixth there was heavier, beaten over 11 lengths after offering little late. Fourth-up fitness is a small plus, but one placing-free try around 1300m leaves him with a clear task.

Returns from a five-week freshening with the best overall profile, even allowing for her last-start fourth as favourite at this track when beaten just over five lengths by Esken Sniper after failing to finish it off. Two back she was only half a length from Davay Speedy and she has placed twice from three goes at this track and distance. That consistency at 1300m gives her a strong platform to break through.

Had no obvious excuse when seventh at this track last start, tracking the speed before failing to quicken as a well-supported favourite and finishing beaten just over eight lengths. The run prior is the better guide: a sharp second to Moon Of The Gorous, beaten half a length. She has placed twice from three starts overall, so she remains a genuine place hope if she rebounds to that earlier effort.

Has the right historical note as a winner at this track and distance, but recent form is hard to endorse. She was sixth last start, beaten over 15 lengths behind Magissa Kirke after settling rearward, and had been beaten over 12 lengths by Esken Sniper the run before. Market weakness matched those efforts, so she has to turn things around sharply.

Finished off strongly for fourth at this track last start, coming from a position where she looked no hope to be beaten three lengths by Prayer Bond despite starting at big odds. She had also made ground late when fourth behind Moon Of The Gorous the run prior. The 1300m record remains a query, but the recent closing work and race-fit profile make her a real winning threat.

Comes in after four weeks following consecutive seconds at this track, the latest a length and a half behind Davay Ho O when sent out an odds-on favourite. That defeat tempers the win case, but he did pick up well late and had also placed behind Moon Of The Cross. With two placings from two tries at the distance and a leading jockey aboard, he shapes as a sound minor hope.

Was well held first-up at this track after leading and then weakening right out, finishing last and well beaten by 22 lengths behind Magissa Kirke. His previous race run in July was a fourth here as favourite, beaten just over five lengths after also leading. Second-up improvement is possible, but the latest performance leaves him with plenty to repair.

Returns from a lengthy spell after ending his last campaign eighth in an Open at Kokura, beaten eight lengths and unwanted in the market. He had been eighth in a Mdn there before that, again at big odds and unable to finish off. With three unplaced runs around 1300m and no placing from three starts overall, he must show a much sharper response fresh.

Settled handy but did not quicken when fifth behind Prayer Bond at this track last start, beaten six lengths. That was still a better effort than her previous seventh, when she gave very little late and was beaten over 15 lengths by Moon Of The Gorous after being near the top of betting. Her 1300m record is modest, but she can run into a minor spot if she sustains the effort.

Arrives in steady form with consecutive thirds at this track, most recently beaten just under three lengths by Prayer Bond after settling rearward. She had been third behind Kashino Hood Star the run prior, and the broader record shows three placings from five starts. With three placings from four attempts around 1300m and solid market respect last time, she brings reliable winning claims.
