Tokyo City Keiba Race 5 - Race 5 - 1000
PEISHA KELLY (7) sets the standard after resuming with a decisive 3yo+ C2 win at Ohi, scoring by two and a half lengths from Nac Regalo while near the top of betting. Her overall record, Ohi profile and proven 1000m form give her the clearest winning case. NINLIL (1) is the main danger on the shortlist despite plain recent results, with the drop from 3yo+ C1C2 company, 51kg and assessed ratings at the distance keeping her in the contest if she can sharpen up. AFTER REVIEW (4) is harder to trust off a second-last over 1400m, but his prior third over 1200m and consistent place record over the past year make him a genuine minor-money runner. FRIENDLY SHIP (6) has been safely held twice, yet the return to 1000m is important as she is already a winner at the trip. PEISHA KELLY is the one to beat, with NINLIL the runner most capable of turning the race into a contest.

Dropped out to finish ninth in a 3yo+ C1C2 at Ohi last start, beaten just over nine lengths by Drain The Swamp after having many lengths to make up and never looking likely. The run prior was also plain when seventh over 1200m behind God Burg at long odds. The drop in grade, 51kg and race fitness keep her in the argument, but the 1000m back-up asks for a much sharper response.

Settled handy but failed to challenge when eighth over 1200m at Ohi last start, beaten just over six lengths by Magic Elegance and unwanted in the market. She had been fair to the line when fifth behind Doppietta the start prior, though again without market confidence. A previous Ohi win is some help, but she is unplaced in two tries at 1000m and needs to find more speed.

Conceded a big start and could only finish 11th over 1200m at Ohi last start, beaten six and a half lengths by Grenat Rufus at long odds. Her previous second behind God Burg reads better, and she has two wins and two places from ten Ohi starts, including a recent edge over Ninlil. The step back to 1000m is new ground, so she must be closer when the pressure goes on.

Returns after five weeks off following a disappointing second-last over 1400m at Ohi, beaten over 10 lengths by Cosmo Traumer after tracking the speed. His earlier third over 1200m behind Singing Blues was much more competitive, and he has placed six times from 13 starts in the past 12 months. Back to 1000m with weight relief, he appeals more as a place runner than a win anchor.

Failed to finish off when tenth over 1200m at Ohi last start, beaten six lengths by Grenat Rufus at long odds. The start prior offered little more, as she led and worked home evenly for fifth behind Yumegoten while unwanted in betting. She has past winning form, but being unplaced in 11 starts across the past 12 months makes this a difficult turnaround to trust.

Worked home without ever looking a winning hope when eighth over 1200m at Ohi last start, beaten five and a half lengths by Grenat Rufus at big odds. She was also well held behind Yumegoten two back, but the return to 1000m is significant given she has won her only start at the distance. That keeps her in the place mix, provided she does not leave herself too much to do.

Resumed in strong style at Ohi, winning a 3yo+ C2 by two and a half lengths from Nac Regalo after leading to the turn and kicking clear as one of the main hopes in betting. Her earlier eighth behind Jasmine Two was forgivable only in the sense she did not quicken, but her broader profile is strong: seven wins from 18 starts, sharp Ohi figures and proven 1000m form. She is the benchmark if holding that fresh edge.

Finished last over 1200m at Ohi last start, beaten over 18 lengths by Grenat Rufus after settling rearward, and there was no obvious excuse in the run. Her previous sixth at Kawasaki behind Grand Mermaid was better, but still only moderate at generous odds. She has placed twice from four starts at 1000m, yet remains winless from 15 overall and needs a major lift.
