Saga Race 6 - Race 6 - 1400
BRAVE SUGAR (6) Got the upper hand late when winning by a nose last run at this venue. Keeping a perfect win record the last 2 runs. Has to be included. UBER MISSION (10) Came in 4th last time at the track. Happy to forgive that run. Putting up notable efforts since returning from a spell. Capable of forward showing and can be competitive. HAKUAI TOWER (4) In the money when 3rd last run here. Expect to go close. TSUKUMO NINE (8) Ran 6th last time around here. Shows good early pace. Exotics hope in this event.

Worked home from well back when fifth at this track last start, beaten seven and a half lengths by Slava after starting at generous odds. The start prior was plain enough when fourth, beaten over 12 lengths by Odai, but she is a track-and-trip winner and has one win and five placings from 19 starts around 1400m. That keeps her in the place discussion rather than as a strong winning push.

Drops back from 1750m after finishing seventh at this track last start, beaten over 12 lengths by Ardior when unwanted in the market. His sixth the run before was also safely held, so the recent figures read poorly. The counter is meaningful: he returns to a 1400m profile that includes four wins, plus a track-and-trip win, and the winning rider is back aboard. This setup gives him a genuine chance to rebound.

Has been a long way from competitive in both runs this campaign, finishing second last at this track on each occasion and beaten over 20 lengths last start by Lot Pilina. He was unwanted in the market there and had failed to get into the race the start prior. Third-up fitness is some context, but the 31-start maiden record and poor 1400m figures leave him with plenty to find.

Continued his campaign progression when third at this track last start, beaten five and a half lengths by Smile Brocken after being sent out a well-supported favourite. He had earlier been fifth in a COND at Mombetsu over 1700m, so this return to 1400m brought a more competitive effort. Still winless from 11 starts, but the profile is improving and the leading track trainer adds confidence.

Finished eighth at this track last start, beaten over 13 lengths by Lot Pilina after conceding a big start and starting big odds. That followed a seventh, beaten over 12 lengths by Nobu Nori O, so the recent form is hard to recommend. She has won at this track and distance and carries only 51kg, but being beaten by Oguri Mcqueen recently underlines the task ahead.

Arrives chasing three straight wins at this track after working over the top of Sun Angels to score by a nose as a dominant odds-on favourite. The start prior was stronger again, beating Arouse by six lengths after heavy support, so the current form has real authority. He is two from two at this venue and has won twice at the distance, giving him the most persuasive winning case in the race.

Was never in the picture when ninth at this track last start, beaten over 17 lengths by Lot Pilina at big odds. The run prior was no better when last and beaten over 18 lengths by Nobu Nori O. Her record at this track and distance shows two wins and four placings from 23 starts, but the current form and recent defeat by Oguri Mcqueen make her hard to support.

Was safely held when sixth at this track last start, beaten over 11 lengths by Lot Pilina after being big odds. Her previous third behind Odai was better, though still beaten eight lengths and unwanted in the market. The positive is a strong track-and-distance base with three wins and four placings from 18 starts, but she has to lift sharply on the latest performance.

Made up good ground when fifth at this track last start, beaten just over nine lengths by Lot Pilina, which was a better closing effort than the margin suggests. Two back she was eighth, beaten over 12 lengths by Nobu Nori O, and was unwanted in the market both times. The top-ranked track jockey is a plus and she has deep 1400m experience, but the winning edge has been missing lately.

Produced another honest run when fourth at this track last start, beaten just over five lengths by Slava, after settling rearward. She had been third the start prior behind Herakles Tesoro, again beaten five lengths, so her recent form is consistent without being dominant. The major knock is the winless 24-start record, but eight placings from nine at this track and distance make her a genuine place prospect.

Had her chance near the speed when seventh at this track last start, beaten over 13 lengths by Lot Pilina after being near the top of an open market. Her previous second to Herakles Tesoro was much better, beaten two and a half lengths, and she has placed three times from five rides with this jockey. A return to that prior run puts her back among the legitimate place hopes.
