Tokyo City Keiba Race 1 - Race 1 - 1400
DEAR LAURA (4) Ran 2nd last start at Monbetsu. Coming to a new trainer. In top racing shape this campaign. Worth a ticket. SOLAR WIND (11) First run back from a break. Came in 3rd last time here on a heavy track and having second career run. Among better hopes. ASTER STINGER (3) Ran well when 3rd last start at the track. Respect in this event. INNOCENT WORLD (7) In the money when 3rd last time here and was on debut last time. Likely to get back. One of the major players.

Placed on debut at this track when third to Wide Valiente over 1800m, beaten nine lengths after racing handy but lacking the turn of foot to threaten. He was near the top of betting there, so the market gave him some respect, and barrier one gives him every chance to use that experience. The fresh 1400m test is the query, but he has enough upside to make a strong winning case.

Worked home from well back when sixth to Ino De Jewel at this track last start, beaten eight lengths and never likely to get seriously involved. The run prior was also plain, finishing eighth behind Pod Madeira after starting big odds. He is fitter now and has been around this trip three times, but the lack of a placing keeps him more in the minor-money mix than the winning discussion.

Took a step forward second time out when third to Montana Magic at this track, beaten seven lengths after lacking the dash to trouble the winner. His debut was much less convincing, beaten out of sight behind Princess Ribbon, so the latest run is clearly the better guide. Third-up with a placing under this jockey, he has a realistic chance to hold a spot in the finish.

Returns from a two-month let-up with the most consistent exposed form, having placed four times from six starts. She was second to Tsubuan over 1100m at Mombetsu last time and third to Kikotsu over 1200m the run prior, both times working home evenly and starting near the top of betting. First try at 1400m is a consideration, but her reliability makes her the runner to beat.

Was unwanted in betting on debut and finished fourth to Wide Valiente at this track, beaten over 12 lengths despite picking up nicely in the straight. That same race has her behind Nac Bloom, so there is form to overturn, and she is also seeing 1400m for the first time. Some improvement is possible second-up, but she has a fair bit to find.

Returns from a four-month break after finishing fourth on debut at this track behind Advance Miyagi, beaten six and a half lengths in an open market. He did not quicken when asked, but that single run leaves scope for natural development and Ryo Fujita has a solid local profile. With only one race under his belt, he is a sound place chance if he comes back sharper.

Returns from a five-week freshening after a debut third at this track, but the margin tells the fuller story as he was never competitive and beaten out of sight behind Shonan Harbor. He did pass a few late, yet that came from a long way back and at generous odds. The first look at 1400m adds another unknown, so he must improve sharply to be a factor.

Made the placings on debut at this track when third to Iide Twilight over 1200m, beaten eight lengths after working home evenly. She was unwanted in the market that day, so the run had some merit, but this is her first attempt around 1400m and the margin still leaves room for doubt. Second-up improvement would put her around the fringe of the exotics.

Finished third to Musashi Penny over 1200m at this track last start, beaten seven and a half lengths after working home evenly. That was an improvement on her sixth behind Yuyu Venture, where she was beaten over 10 lengths, and the 51kg helps her setup. Even so, she is unplaced from one try around 1400m and looks more a rough place hope than a winning threat.

Finished second last behind Ino De Jewel at this track most recently, beaten nine and a half lengths after settling with too much to do and making no headway. Her previous fifth behind Will On The Move was also well held, beaten over 11 lengths. Unplaced from three starts overall and twice at this distance, she is hard to recommend on current form.

Returns from a five-month break after placing on debut at this track, finishing third to Mussorgsky and beaten nine lengths in a small field. She was near the top of an open market, which gives that first run some standing, and Takayuki Yano taking the ride is a clear positive. The 1400m is new, but her fresh profile and stable support make her a major winning chance.
