Saga Race 11 - Race 11 - 1300

FRACTAL (4) Was agonizingly close last time at this venue and hard to fault at the distance. Should race on the speed. Tracking very well this preparation. Capable of taking this out. LOVE ME NASSAU (2) Landed the spoils when winning by 2L last start at the track and drawn nicely. Performing honestly since coming back from a break. Expected to be flashing home. Suitably placed in this race. FIVE ROSES (6) Unimpressive effort when 9th last run around here. Should come to hand quickly. Ticks plenty of boxes and looks like value . LUMEN (9) Came in 5th last start at this venue. Looking sharp on the track this preparation. Could be a value selection.

Comments

Worked home from a long way back when fourth at this track last start, though the margin was still nine lengths and he was again at long odds. His previous sixth behind Special Holiday was more even than threatening, so the recent form leaves him with ground to make up. A proven record around 1300m and race fitness help, but he has to find a sharper finish to trouble the better chances.

Built on a solid second to Bright Color by winning at this track last start, scoring by two lengths over Feb Lino as a prohibitive odds-on favourite. She made up strong ground there and again has Ren Hasegawa, with their two-start partnership producing a win and a placing. Her 1300m record is sound and the current campaign has a progressive look, making her the horse to beat.

Ran third at this track last start but was beaten seven lengths and unwanted in the market, with the run more honest than threatening. Two back she was fifth behind Daihasshu, beaten just over four lengths after working home fairly. Her long 1300m record gives her some grounding and Yoshiki Yamada knows her well, but she profiles better as a place hope than a likely winner.

Comments

Went within a nose of winning at this track last start, tracking into the race and fighting hard behind Bright Color after being prominent in betting. She had earlier tackled a COND over 1860m and faded late, but the return to this 1300m setup is clearly more suitable. With three wins and two placings from five at this track and distance, she has a strong winning case.

Comments

Has produced consecutive seconds at this track, most recently beaten three lengths by Acqua Virile after being right in the contest despite starting at big odds. Her previous effort was also solid, beaten a length behind Daihasshu after finishing off well. The query is whether she can convert consistency into a win, but her current form is strong enough for the placings.

Was beaten over 12 lengths at this track last start after leading and dropping right out, with the market giving little encouragement. The run prior was even harder to support, finishing last and beaten a long way over 1750m. Her career and jockey-horse records are far better than the current form, but she must rediscover that older level quickly.

Settled rearward and made little impact when fifth at this track last start, beaten just over nine lengths at long odds. That followed a seventh behind Special Holiday where she was again safely held after being among the outsiders. She has placed once from three at this track and distance, but the recent figures leave her with a sizeable task.

Dropped out badly when ninth at this track last start, beaten over 19 lengths after offering little late, and there was no obvious excuse in the run. Her prior fourth behind Special Holiday was more competitive, beaten two and a half lengths after working home evenly. She has track-and-distance credentials, but must put that latest failure behind her.

Worked home well when fifth behind Mozu Life Saver at this track last start, beaten six lengths after being unwanted in the market. Two back she was third behind Special Holiday and had been respected in an open market, so the better recent run is still close enough to keep her in the mix. Weight relief and a strong season record support a place chance.

Lifted at this track last start when third behind Mozu Life Saver, beaten just over two lengths despite starting at big odds. Her previous fifth behind Special Holiday was plain late, but she is proven at this course and distance with two wins and two placings from seven attempts. With Takuto Demizu having a perfect top-three record on her, she is a live winning hope.

Comments

Was never in the race when seventh behind Mozu Life Saver at this track last start, conceding a huge start and finishing beaten over 11 lengths. His previous seventh at Sonoda in a C2 was similar, leaving too much to do and only fair through the line. He owns a solid overall place record, but current form points to others having stronger claims.
