Tokyo City Keiba Race 4 - Race 4 - 1200
LIKE A WIND (10) sets the benchmark in this 3yo COND over 1200m at Ohi. She was beaten just under two lengths as favourite last start after finishing off well behind Wide Potiron, and her prior win by three and a half lengths from Sun Tenzing reads as the strongest recent form in this field. LOVELY FUNK (4) is the main danger after a better fourth over 1600m at Ohi, though the drop back in trip and a 0-from-18 career record keep the assessment measured. GLOW DREAM (6) resumes with a solid Ohi profile, having placed four times from nine starts here, and her third over 1400m two back gives her a genuine winning platform if she is ready fresh. RIC SIL'NYJ (2) was unwanted first-up but did close off into fifth, and his earlier second at Ohi behind Yoake keeps him in the mix for the exotics and perhaps more if he improves second-up.

Worked home fairly from well back when seventh at Ohi last start, beaten six and a half lengths behind Riko Blue Eye, but she was at long odds and never looked a winning threat. The run prior was much weaker, finishing second last behind Girlish and beaten over 19 lengths. Three placings from 13 starts at this track and distance offer minor support, but she needs a sharper turn of foot.

Picked up nicely in the straight when fifth at Ohi first-up, but was unwanted in the market and still beaten just over nine lengths by Wide Potiron. His previous run was better, leading and finishing second to Yoake, beaten three lengths when near the top of an open market. Second-up improvement is possible, though the distance record says he is more a place chance than a clear winning play.

Settled prominently but gave nothing late when second last at Ohi, beaten over 17 lengths behind Riko Blue Eye at long odds. That followed a 13th behind Girlish, beaten over 14 lengths after making no headway. She has a previous track-and-trip win on the record, but being unplaced in all twelve starts in the past 12 months makes this a demanding turnaround.

Produced a better run when fourth over 1600m at Ohi last start, beaten five lengths by King's Eye after starting at long odds. That was a clear lift on her 11th behind Girlish, where she gave away a big start and was never in the picture. The class drop helps and her latest effort rates well for this, but the drop back in trip and 18-start maiden record are genuine reservations.

Returns from a six-month break after finishing a distant last over 1400m at Ohi behind Lugalbanda, when at long odds and never in the race. Her prior run was also plain, finishing second last and beaten a long way behind A Shin Mirami. A previous win from six starts at this track and distance is the one positive, but recent form leaves a lot to repair first-up.

Returns from a four-month break after finishing fifth at Ohi, beaten six and a half lengths behind Star Ruby Pierce when she did not quicken. Her better reference is the start prior over 1400m, finishing third behind Lencois and beaten just under three lengths when near the top of an open market. Four placings from nine Ohi starts keep her right in this, though she still has to convert that consistency into a win.

Raced below her best again when 13th at Ohi last start, beaten over 15 lengths behind Riko Blue Eye after fading late. The run prior was no better, finishing 14th behind Girlish and beaten over 18 lengths. She has a win from five starts overall, so there is some underlying ability, but her current preparation form needs a decisive reset.

Finished eighth at Ohi last start, beaten seven lengths behind Riko Blue Eye after conceding a huge start and closing only fairly. Two back he was seventh behind Girlish, beaten just under ten lengths at long odds, so the recent form is not sharp. He does have one win and three places from 16 starts, and third-up fitness helps, but a minor placing looks the more realistic target.

Dropped out badly when second last over 1600m at Ohi last start, beaten a long way behind Duni after settling rearward. Her previous run at Saga was also plain, finishing last and beaten over 14 lengths by Melody Seira. The light weight and class drop are positives on paper, but she has to rebound sharply before that setup turns into a genuine place result.

Finished off strongly for third at Ohi last start, beaten just under two lengths by Wide Potiron as favourite, and that form sits well against this field. The start prior was decisive, winning at Ohi by three and a half lengths from Sun Tenzing as an odds-on favourite. She has one win and two places from four starts here, reunites with Takayuki Yano, and looks the runner they have to beat if she holds her level from the wide draw.
