Tokyo City Keiba Race 6 - Race 6 - 1600
HATCHIN (7) Resumes after a spell. Finished 5th last run at this track. Should improve. Respect in this event. GRUNE BERG (8) Below par when 8th last run here. Expected to rebound and returns to an increased distance. Worth a ticket. REVIVE MAILLARD (9) Amongst the placegetters when 3rd last run at this track and on an upward trajectory in recent races. Worth consideration. AZURITE AZUL (6) Placed 2nd last start at Sapporo. Coming to a new trainer. Shows very good closing speed. Follow market leads.

Returns from a six-week let-up after a sixth at this track, beaten just over six lengths by World Fountain when unwanted in the market. He had many lengths to make up and worked home fairly, which was a better finish than his 12th over 1800m the run prior when fading badly. Still a maiden from 14 starts and the 1600m record is place-only, but he has enough late work to hold minor claims.

Worked home into third in a COND at this venue two back, then was seventh behind Little Devil over 1400m after starting big odds and never looking a winning hope. She remains a 17-start maiden, so the winning edge is the concern, but six career placings and a three-from-six place record at this track and distance keep her in the mix for another cheque.

Has the past track-and-trip win to keep in mind, but recent efforts make her hard to push. She was ninth behind Star Maiden over 1400m last start, beaten just over eight lengths at big odds, and had also been safely held in a COND when sixth the run prior. The return to 1600m helps on old form, though a sharp turnaround is required.

Led them up last start before being swamped late when sixth behind Sekitei Rocks, beaten just over five lengths. The prior tenth behind World Fountain was similar in shape, with early speed followed by a weak finish. The Shohei Nakamura pairing has produced six placings from 13, which fits his profile: honest enough for exotics if he conserves enough late.

Finished 12th behind Mesmerise over 1200m last start, beaten over 12 lengths after settling miles back and failing to improve. The prior COND run was no kinder, with a second-last at big odds. She has been unplaced in all ten starts across the past 12 months, and one previous 1600m try produced no placing, so others make far more appeal.

Back from a two-month break after going within half a length of Meisho Sendo in a Mdn at Sapporo Dirt, where he led and was only caught late. He had been a distant second to Bel Azzurro there a week earlier when unwanted in the market, so the latest run reads as genuine improvement. The 1600m record has place form without a win, but the class drop gives him a strong platform to break through.

Resumes after three months off after ending her last preparation with a fair fifth in a COND at this track, beaten six and a half lengths when near the top of betting. Earlier in that campaign she was sixth over 1400m, so she returns with something to prove at the mile. Still, one win and two placings from six starts at this venue, plus Wada Joji engaged, give her a sound fresh chance.

Returns from a six-week let-up after finishing eighth behind Immersive over 1200m, beaten five and a half lengths when near the top of betting. She was also favourite two back and could not make ground, so this campaign has started below expectations. The counter is a one-win, one-place record from three runs at this track and distance, leaving her as an each-way fringe chance if she rediscovers that form.

Went within just under a length of Sekitei Rocks at this track last start, finishing third after being pipped late, and that followed a solid fourth behind World Fountain. Few bring a stronger track-and-distance base: three wins and four placings from eleven starts around this setup, plus a 56% career place rate. Drawn wider, but his current form and proven mile record make him a major player.

Could not quicken when ninth behind Little Devil over 1400m last start, beaten seven and a half lengths after being unwanted in the market. The run prior was a fifth, but still beaten eight lengths behind Chimaru, and his four attempts around 1600m have yielded no placings. With no top-three finish in the past 12 months, he has plenty to find.
