Tokyo Race 10 - Kunitachi Tokubetsu
CHANSON D'OR (3) Competed in a tight contest last run at Nakayama. Won't be far away during the run. Has not missed the money this campaign in 2 attempts. Will give a big sight. FUJI GAIFU (7) Missed by a narrow margin last start at the track. Can measure up to this company. KISHIDANCHO (4) Came in 5th last start at Kyoto. Should improve. Exhibiting good form since returning from a break. Definite claims. POWER SNATCH (8) Back from a break. Finished 6th last start at Niigata. Overlooking the last run. Worth a ticket.

Returns from a three-month break after finishing seventh at Niigata, beaten six and a half lengths by Ho O Shelly when never a winning hope. His previous fourth there at long odds had more merit, and he has two wins and five placings from 25 starts around 1600m. Even so, the recent form leaves him with ground to make up on the main chances.

Back after two months following consecutive 11th placings at Sapporo over 1200m, most recently beaten eight and a half lengths by Fabulous Star at long odds. She is third-up and fitter, but her record around 1600m shows no wins or placings from four attempts. A sharp turnaround is required to trouble the better-credentialed runners.

Back after two months off the back of a strong second at Nakayama, beaten a neck by Lo Que Vendra after travelling into the race in good style as favourite. She had earlier closed nicely for third at Niigata, again as favourite, and her overall record of two wins and six places from eight starts is excellent. With Christophe Lemaire returning and proven form at this track, she looks the runner they have to beat.

Was safely held when fifth at Kyoto over 1800m last start, beaten just over six lengths by Access after settling rearward. The run prior is the stronger guide: he led and beat Daisy by a length and a half at Niigata when near the top of betting. Already a winner at his only 1600m start and reunited with a winning rider, he has the right credentials to rebound.

Resumed with a ninth at this track, beaten four and a half lengths by Crepuscular after being unwanted in the market and never looking a winning hope. His previous fourth at Nakayama in ALLOW grade was also only fair, with no real turn of foot. A track-and-trip win gives him some base, but he must produce a sharper finish to be a serious factor.

Returns from a four-month break after finishing sixth at Sapporo, beaten six and a half lengths by Watashi Matsuwa when tracking the speed. He had been fourth at Fukushima before that at big odds, but the broader profile is testing: unplaced in all six starts in the past 12 months and only one win from 14 attempts around 1600m. Others bring stronger claims.

Finished strongly for second at this track last start, beaten a nose by Crepuscular when near the top of betting. That followed a third at this venue when sent out odds-on, so the consistency is clear even if he has just missed lately. His track-and-distance record is excellent, with two wins and three places from five starts, and Takeshi Yokoyama has already won on him. Strong winning claims again.

Returns from a three-month break after a sixth at Niigata, beaten just under five lengths by Ho O Shelly after settling prominently and fading late. He was tenth at this track before that, though beaten just under four lengths when respected in betting. His 1600m record is sound, with one win and four placings from six starts, so he profiles as a place chance if returning switched on.

Back after two months following a last placing at Nakayama, beaten over 15 lengths by Blue Maestro after settling rearward and making no impression. His previous run was also last at this track, beaten over 10 lengths at big odds. With no wins or placings from 11 starts around 1600m and unplaced in all twelve turf runs, he faces a difficult task.

Was only battling when seventh at this track last start, beaten three lengths by Crepuscular at generous odds. His previous second at this venue was more encouraging, beaten just over a length by Comme Une Plume after looming and fighting on. He has two wins and one placing from seven starts at 1600m, and while Fuji Gaifu has since had his measure, he still shapes as a legitimate place hope.
