Tokyo City Keiba Race 3 - Race 3 - 1600
ALI HAM (5) Ran 6th last start around here. Giving another go here. Stable is in form. No surprise to see a forward showing and one of the main hopes in this race. JOY GREEN (6) Looked good when 2nd last time at Mizusawa. Change in trainer. Should jump out and bowl along. Strong chance. COCO QUICK (7) Ran well when 2nd last time here and returns to a longer distance. Can win. MAXINE (11) Came in 4th last time here. Jouji Wada and Masahiro Fukuda link well together. In the mix.

Has been safely held at his past two runs at this track, finishing seventh behind Royal Dream last start when beaten over 10 lengths at big odds. The start prior was no better, again seventh and beaten over 13 lengths after settling a long way back and making no impression. With no placing from nine starts and a blank record around 1600m, he has to find a sizeable lift.

Was well beaten when ninth behind Royal Dream at this track last start, finishing over 15 lengths away after being unwanted in the market. Her previous fifth showed a little more, as she picked up nicely in the straight, but she was still beaten six and a half lengths. The light weight helps, yet six unplaced runs at this track and distance make it hard to be confident.

Has gone backwards through recent racing and was second last behind Royal Dream at this track last start, beaten over 16 lengths at long odds. Two back he was eighth behind Queen Anne, beaten over 13 lengths after having too much to do and never looking likely. With one placing from 14 starts and no recent market confidence, others make far stronger appeal.

Returns from a three-month break after ending his last campaign with two heavy defeats, most recently 13th in a Mdn at Chukyo Dirt behind B B Synergy when beaten over 12 lengths. His Hanshin run prior was weaker again, finishing 16th and fading right out. A leading jockey goes on, but the race form has to improve markedly before he becomes a serious player.

Resumed as favourite at this track and could only manage sixth behind Royal Dream, beaten just over six lengths with no clear excuse. The positive is his earlier Kanazawa B4 win, where he beat Wide Schaffen by a length and a half as an odds-on favourite and kept finding strongly. Second-up, he has enough back-form to be a place hope if he recaptures that sharper edge.

Returns after five weeks off the back of two strong Mizusawa seconds, beaten just under two lengths in C1 company last start after a brave on-speed effort. He had been beaten only a neck in C2 grade the run prior, so his consistency is clear. The step back to 1600m carries a small query after one unplaced attempt, but the class drop and recent form make him the runner to beat.

Resumed with a sound second behind Nac Poppy at this track over 1200m, beaten four lengths after working home evenly and being near the top of an open market. She has placed three times from seven starts and has a good record with Sho Yoshii aboard, but her previous 1600m attempt was unplaced. The rise in trip is the main question for an otherwise genuine place chance.

Has built a tidy sequence this campaign, finishing third two back at this track before going one better when second behind Neo Aotobi last start, beaten just over a length at long odds. Both runs were steady rather than dominant, but he is holding his form and has placed once from two tries at this distance. A repeat puts him right among the realistic place chances.

Returns from a three-month break after a fair seventh in a Niigata Mdn, beaten five and a half lengths by Zihuatanejo after sticking on without ever looking a winning hope. Her Fukushima sixth prior was closer, at two and a half lengths, but she remains unplaced from six starts and has not placed in three goes around 1600m. She is an outside chance only.

Returns from a two-month freshening after a decisive C4 win at Mombetsu, where she quickened well to beat Bubbly Dash by a length and a half as odds-on favourite. That followed a narrow second to Best Luire, and her broader 1600m record is a genuine asset. First look at this track is the query, but her consistency and distance form give her a strong winning case.

Was sound first-up at this track when fourth behind Royal Dream, beaten five and a half lengths at generous odds. Her Urawa sixth before that was not far away either, beaten four and a half lengths after settling rearward. The career record is still winless and the 1600m stats are unconvincing, but Wada Joji aboard and natural second-up improvement keep her in the winning discussion.
