Tokyo City Keiba Race 4 - Race 4 - 1200
ACTUEL (7) Finished on top by 2L last time here and demonstrating upward trajectory in recent races. Katsunori Arayama stable are running hot lately. Genuine threat. RHEIN HOPE (4) Good win by 1 3/4L last time at this venue. Should muster plenty of early toe. Has run into the money 2 from 2 attempts this preparation. Good chance in this event. MUSASHI PENNY (5) Showed promise when winning by 1 3/4L last time at the track. Shows good early pace. Well placed and has solid claims. DAIWA CURREN CITY (2) First up from a break. Good win by 1L last time around here and having second career run. Likely to be well placed early. Drawn nicely. Can win at odds.

Recent form has tailed off, with a fifth at this track last start leaving him beaten over 13 lengths after he had the job ahead and made no headway. The run prior was no stronger when ninth, beaten over 12 lengths at long odds. He has placed three times at this venue, but tries around 1200m for the first time and will have to find a much sharper finish.

Returns from a lengthy spell after making a winning debut at this track and distance, beating Talitha by a length after settling behind the leader and quickening cleanly. One run is still a small evidence base, but the performance had enough polish to respect. With a 100% record and natural scope, she shapes as a genuine placing hope fresh.

Back after three months following a plain tenth at Mombetsu, beaten over 12 lengths at big odds after settling a long way back and making no impression. Her debut win there over 1000m was dominant as a prohibitive odds-on favourite, so there is some ability in the profile. Even so, the latest run and an unplaced 1200m record leave her with plenty to answer.

Built neatly on his debut second when winning at this track last start, beating L'Oiseau De Feu by just under two lengths as a prohibitive odds-on favourite. He had earlier been beaten just under two lengths by Batchiri after working into the race well, so both runs carry substance. Third-up, proven at this track and distance, and still improving, he is a major winning threat.

Lifted sharply second time out when winning at this track, leading and beating Hakobune Harukaze by just under two lengths as a well-supported favourite. That was a complete turnaround from her debut fifth, where she was beaten out of sight at long odds and failed to finish off. The latest win earns respect, though she profiles more as a solid place chance than a certainty to repeat.

Resumes after three months off, having last been seen finishing seventh at Mombetsu, beaten eight lengths after settling rearward at long odds. Her overall record is stronger than that, with two wins and one placing from four starts, including a two-length win over Ryuno Achilles at Mombetsu the run prior. The 1200m record remains a query, but she can run into the placings fresh.

Won first-up at this track in the style of the horse to beat, scoring by two lengths from Batchiri as favourite on fast ground. His record around 1200m is persuasive, with two wins from three attempts, and he has already won at this venue under Masashige Honda. Second-up for a leading track stable, he brings the strongest recent form and looks well placed to go on with it.

Was well beaten by Rhein Hope at this track last start, finishing eighth and beaten over 11 lengths at big odds. The run prior was also plain when sixth, beaten ten lengths after giving away a big start and only working home fairly. A previous track-and-distance win gives him some grounding, but his current form leaves him short of the main chances.

Has been safely held at his past two, most recently sixth behind Actuel at this track when beaten over 10 lengths at big odds after racing handy and failing to quicken. He was also beaten over 14 lengths the run prior. A track-and-distance record of one win and one placing from five starts is useful background, but recent performances say he must lift considerably.
