Saga Race 1 - Race 1 - 1300
PRAYER WIN (3) Had a break from racing and returns to competition. Only fair when 9th last start at Monbetsu. Racing for a new trainer. Does take a while to get into stride. Gets a chance to win. CLEAR MIND (6) Didn't threaten when 11th last start at Nakayama. Likely to bounce back. First race for a new trainer. Expected to be flashing home. Looks promising in this race. SEIUN KOHARUTA (5) Folded up in the straight when 12th last time at Nakayama. Can show a better performance this time but down in distance. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Looks to be value. ULTRA MAX (1) Well beaten when 8th last run around here but gets the perfect alley. Likely to get back in the field. One to watch closely and a legitimate knockout hope.

Finished last at this track two weeks ago, well beaten behind Hakuai Bonheur after fading late, and the market again had him at big odds. His previous Mombetsu run was no better, when second last behind Ambitio and beaten out of sight. Race fitness is in his favour and barrier 1 is no disadvantage, but he has been unplaced in all seven starts and must lift sharply to trouble these.

Was safely held on debut at this track, finishing sixth of seven behind Temu American after settling rearward and giving ground in the run home. He was unwanted in the market there and now tackles around 1300m for the first time, which is a genuine new test. With only one race start to judge, he is open to natural improvement, but the first run leaves him looking a place chance at best.

Returns from a three-month break after ending the last campaign with a ninth at Mombetsu, beaten over 10 lengths by Banshee Harpy after settling well back and never looking likely. The run prior was another ninth, this time unwanted in the market behind Wilfred. He has had one previous start around 1300m without placing, so a freshened return must bring a better finishing effort to earn minor money.

Finished last on debut at this track, tailed off behind Temu American after being well back around the turn and making no impression late. She started at big odds there, so the market offered little encouragement, and she now goes to around 1300m for the first time. Second-up improvement is possible for a lightly raced filly, but she has a considerable gap to close before becoming a serious winning hope.

Returns from a six-week freshening after a well-beaten 12th in a Mdn at Nakayama, where she settled rearward and weakened further behind Athena Brave. The start prior at Hakodate Dirt was also plain, but this is a kinder COND assignment and Shinsuke Ishikawa is one of the leading jockeys at this track. The return to around 1300m is a query, yet the class drop gives her a genuine winning chance.

Returns from a five-week freshening with the right setup to improve third-up. She was 11th in a Mdn at Nakayama Dirt last start, beaten over 14 lengths behind Ammitsu, after a debut run where she conceded a huge start and was never in the race. Those figures are plain, but she drops from tougher company, is race fit, and her profile as a ¥1.8m yearling purchase adds interest. This looks the race for her to show more.

Was seventh of eight at this track last start, well beaten by 23 lengths behind Hakuai Bonheur after settling rearward and weakening in the run home. Her prior run was another sound defeat at this venue, beaten over 20 lengths by Magissa Kirke when unable to make ground. She has been unplaced in all six starts at this track and distance, leaving others with far stronger claims.

Returns from a six-week freshening after resuming with a second-last in a Mdn at Nakayama Dirt, beaten a long way by Smart Bride after giving away a big start. Two back he was last at Kokura behind Curren Hau and again started at long odds. The class drop, top-rated last-12-months profile and Manato Hida booking are genuine positives, though his 1300m record keeps him more a place hope than a firm win selection.
