Tokyo Race 11 - The Nhk Mile Cup

DIAMOND KNOT (7) was an impressive winner fresh over 1400m in the G3 Falcon Stakes at Chukyo, getting home by 1.3 lengths. Placed only try this level two back. Hard to beat again. ECORO ALBA (10) is a promising type Grade 1 placed only run last campaign. Has won 2/3 fresh and only try course and distance. Backmarker who gets home hard. RODEO DRIVE (17) continues to race well with a win two back at Nakayama before finishing a neck away in second last time over 1600m in the G2 NEW ZEALAND TROPHY (NHK Mile Cup Trial) at Nakayama. Trips suits and has fitness. Alley makes it tough but expected to run well. CAVALLERIZZO (4) was safely held in the Guineas but fitter again and won only other try second-up. Improver. ASK IKIGOMI (16) is an unbeaten colt winning both starts at this trip, sitting close and drawing clear. This tougher but untapped and can measure up again.

Yet to taste defeat in two starts. On debut, won by 1.75 len at this track February 1 over 1600m defeating Rossa Cometa carrying 57.0kg at $5.80. Last time out won by 0.5 len at Hanshin G3 Churchill Downs (Arlington) Cup April 4 over 1600m defeating Yu Pharoah with 57.0kg at $13.80. Unbeaten colt winning both starts at this trip, sitting close and drawing clear. This tougher but untapped and can measure up again.
