Tokyo City Keiba Race 6 - Race 6 - 1600
POLYLOOP (1) sets the standard on the exposed Ohi form, having won on debut here before charging late for third behind Quantum Bit when favourite over 1400m. The move to 1600m is the question, but he has the strongest recent profile and draws to get a sensible midfield run. QUEEN ANNE (3) is harder to trust off two well-beaten 3yo Maiden runs at Niigata and Tokyo, though the class drop and leading local rider keep her in the mix for minor money. IN THE LIMELIGHT (7) should be handy with MARLOWE likely to press forward, so the tempo may be honest enough to give the closers their chance. Her best recent run was a sixth at Fukushima, but 1600m asks more. MATSURI (5) has been second at both starts and looks the most reliable danger if she can quicken late. MARLOWE (11) has the speed to shape the race, yet recent Ohi runs leave him with ground to make up.

Closed off strongly for third over 1400m at Ohi last start, beaten just over three lengths by Quantum Bit after looking unlikely to make the frame as favourite. That followed a debut win here when he charged home from back in the field and beat Quantum Bit by a length. The rise to 1600m is the main query, but his Ohi form and return to Takayuki Yano give him a strong winning platform.

Finished last at Ohi a fortnight ago, beaten over 11 lengths by Win Daybreak after sitting just off the leaders and offering little when it mattered. She had also been beaten over 11 lengths here at the run prior when at long odds. With no wins from 17 starts and no placing from two tries at this distance, even the class drop leaves her needing a sharp turnaround.

Returns from a two-month break after finishing 14th in a 3yo Maiden over 2000m at Niigata, beaten over 12 lengths after racing prominently and fading late. Her previous run at Tokyo over 2400m was also plain, finishing seventh behind Nishino Hinotori. Back to 1600m is a genuine query, but the class drop and Tsubasa Sasagawa booking give her some place appeal.

Resumed with a more encouraging fourth at Ohi, beaten five and a half lengths by Win Daybreak after keeping to the task despite being unwanted in the market. That was a clear step up from his previous run here, where he finished last and was well beaten after fading late. The maiden record remains a concern, but that first-up effort gives him a minor-money path.

Returns from a five-week freshening after another honest second at Ohi, beaten three lengths by Mon Dieu while near the top of betting and working home evenly. She was also runner-up on debut over 1400m here behind Hatch To Potch, so there is a reliable base to work from. Still a maiden, but two placings from two starts make her one of the steadier winning chances if the race is run to suit.

Settled well back and made no impression when eighth at Ohi last start, beaten over 11 lengths by Win Daybreak while unwanted in the market. The run prior was even weaker, finishing 11th here and beaten over 19 lengths by Tatsuno Romance. She carries 52kg again, but a 20-start maiden record and four unplaced runs at this track and distance are difficult to overlook.

Returns from a five-week freshening after leading into the straight in a 3yo Maiden over 1200m at Niigata before tiring to finish second last, beaten eight and a half lengths by Gem Silica. Two back she was sixth at Fukushima, beaten two and a half lengths after racing on speed. She should roll forward again, but the rise to 1600m is the test she must answer.

Was in touch early but failed to threaten when eighth over 1200m at Ohi last start, beaten over 11 lengths by Edge at big odds. Her previous run had more merit, leading before finishing fifth behind Polyloop over 1400m, but she was still beaten six and a half lengths. One win from 16 starts offers some background, yet she needs to find more late strength.

Dropped out to finish second last over 1400m at Ohi last start, beaten over 16 lengths by Quantum Bit despite being near the top of an open market. The prior 3yo Maiden run at Hakodate Dirt was no better, with a tenth placing and a margin over 20 lengths. He tends to settle rearward and has not placed in seven starts, so the improvement required is substantial.

Failed to make ground when second last in a 3yo C1 over 1400m at Morioka Dirt last start, beaten just under nine lengths by Sister Black at big odds. The run prior was much better, getting into second behind Kirara Aries over the same course and trip. Seven placings from 14 starts show she can fill a hole, but first look at Ohi and 1600m keeps the win case guarded.

Worked home evenly but was never a serious threat when seventh over 1200m at Ohi last start, beaten over 11 lengths by Edge. He had been sent out favourite here the start before and finished ninth, beaten just over nine lengths by Afrotchi. His broader record is better than many here and he can lead, but the 1600m query means he must lift sharply to capitalise.
