Tokyo City Keiba Race 2 - Race 2 - 1200
DAIWA CURREN CITY (1) gets the nod in a race built around lightly raced last-start winners. Her debut win at Ohi had substance, as she sat just off the leader and quickened to beat Talitha by a length, and she again carries 51kg from the inside barrier. O SHIN SORA (7) was more dominant on raw margin, winning by six lengths as odds-on favourite and beating CHORD ELEVEN with plenty in hand, so he is the obvious danger if he repeats that debut level. LUCKY COLOR (8) comes through an eight-length Ohi win as favourite and has improved sharply from his debut fourth, though he profiles more as a strong place threat than a clear top pick. RIKEA CHA CHA CHA (9) was solid when second to Friend Tonnerre but has a distance query and still seeks a first win.

Led and gave a sight when second at Ohi last start, beaten three lengths by Rovaniemi after being near the top of betting. That was a clear lift on her debut seventh over 1600m here, where she was unwanted in the market and beaten over 14 lengths by Peptone O. She is fitter now, but the latest placing still needs a sharper winning edge.

Returns after one month since finishing third at Ohi, but the margin was plain enough as he was beaten over 11 lengths by Kyoei Akagi after being unwanted in the market. The better reference is the start prior, when he led and beat Dear Wendy by a length as an odds-on favourite. Proven here, though he needs to bounce back strongly to threaten the main chances.

Placed on debut at Ohi when second to O Shin Sora, but the six-length margin told the story and she lacked the dash to worry the winner after being near the top of betting. That form is relevant because she meets the same rival again, and the gap must be narrowed sharply. With only one run to assess, she has place claims rather than a convincing winning case.

Started near the top of betting at Ohi last start but finished sixth, beaten over 12 lengths by Friend Tonnerre after offering little late. She had also been safely held when second to Montsaintmanaolana as a well-supported favourite the run prior. The return setup has some positives, yet the distance query and recent margins leave her with plenty to repair.

Finished last over 1600m at Ohi last start and was never competitive, beaten out of sight by Keten Passion after being unwanted in the market. His debut second behind Purple Fog was better on paper, but he still finished well held at long odds. Coming back in trip is another query, so he needs a sizeable form reversal to get involved.

Made a big impression on debut at Ohi, starting odds-on and beating Chord Eleven by six lengths after holding a narrow advantage before putting the race away strongly. That gives him a direct form edge over at least one rival here, and Wada Joji again looks an important asset. The wider barrier asks a little more, but the debut performance gives him serious winning claims.

Returns after one month following a dominant Ohi win, where he started favourite and beat Sable Ace by eight lengths. That was a major step on his debut fourth behind Shark Ring, when he loomed but did not go on and was beaten nine and a half lengths. He has clearly improved with racing, though this asks him to reproduce that peak against sharper opposition.

Improved last start at Ohi when second to Friend Tonnerre, beaten two and a half lengths as favourite after being run down late. The run prior was a distant fourth in a 2yo Maiden at Fukushima Dirt, beaten over 14 lengths by Moon Beryl at long odds. She is race fit and has Ohi placing form, but the distance query keeps her more in the place mix.
