Tokyo Race 11 - The Tenno Sho(Autumn)(G1)
CROIX DU NORD (1) Should be ready to fire fresh. Close to claiming the win last time at Hanshin and gets the perfect alley. Good prospects. NEBRA DISK (10) Has multiple wins when resuming. Kicked clear when winning by a margin of 3L last start at Kokura. Jockey Yuga Kawada adds value. Has to be strongly considered. SAKURA FARREL (15) Resumes from a spell. Finished strongly when 2nd beaten by 2 1/2L last run at Sapporo. Should be rolling forward early from the wide gate. Respect in this event. DANON DECILE (17) Resuming. Managed to place 3rd beaten by 2 3/4L last time at Hanshin. Genuine winning chance.

Returns from a lengthy five-month spell with elite credentials, having run second in the G1 Takarazuka Kinen at Hanshin when beaten a neck as favourite. That followed a G1 Tenno Sho (Spring) win at Kyoto, where he beat Wurttemberg by a nose. Three wins and one placing from four starts at this distance, plus three wins from four starts at this track, make him the benchmark runner and a deserved top pick.

Resumed with a ninth in the G2 Mainichi Okan at this track, beaten just over three lengths after settling rearward and being unwanted in the market. He had been fifth in the G3 Sekiya Kinen at Niigata, but that margin was just over seven lengths. The new 2000m test is a genuine question, although the winning rider returns and his Group 1 placing keeps minor claims alive.

Returns from a six-week freshening after finishing fourth in the G2 Sankei Sho All Comers at Nakayama, beaten three lengths as favourite when she did not finish it off. Her G1 Takarazuka Kinen seventh was also plain, yet she is a three-time Group 1 winner and Tetsuya Kimura has won the Tenno Sho (Autumn) twice from three runners in the last decade. The trip is the query, but the class is obvious.

Put in a solid G2 Mainichi Okan third at this track last start, beaten just over a length after finishing strongly at generous odds. He had also placed in the G2 Sapporo Kinen, so the current campaign has genuine substance. A previous win at this track and distance is a positive, but the step to this Group 1 standard means he profiles as a sound place hope rather than a dominant winning chance.

Second-up after finishing 13th in the G2 Mainichi Okan at this track, beaten just over four lengths at big odds and only fair through the line. His previous run was a 12th in the G1 Yasuda Kinen, where he conceded a big start and was never in the race. A past win at this track is some background, but recent figures leave him with a significant task.

Returned in excellent order to win the G2 Mainichi Okan at this track by a nose from Ho O Biscuits, working home strongly as an outside chance in betting. His previous run was a close fourth in the G1 Yasuda Kinen, beaten just over half a length. He is proven around 2000m and at this venue, but his Group 1 record is still the sticking point for win confidence.

Resumes after four months off the back of a below-par seventh in the G1 King George VI & Queen Elizabeth Stakes at Ascot, where he was beaten over 14 lengths. His Sha Tin second to Romantic Warrior prior reads far better, and he won this race last year. Three wins and two places from five starts at this track, plus Christophe Lemaire's outstanding Tenno Sho (Autumn) record, make him a major threat fresh.

Improved when third in the Listed OCTOBER STAKES at this track last start, beaten just over a length at generous odds. That was a better effort than his Niigata Kinen ninth, though he was still not strongly fancied there. His one win and three places from four starts at this track and distance are useful, but he has to raise the bar sharply at Group 1 level.

Went within a nose of winning the G2 Mainichi Okan at this track last start, only nailed late by Seiun Hades after starting at big odds. That was a clear lift on his safely held Sapporo Kinen tenth. He is third-up, has placed in this race before and owns a win at this track and distance, so he is a realistic place chance if he repeats the latest run.

Resumes after four months following a comfortable ALLOW win at Kokura, where he beat Sound Move by three lengths after putting the race away quickly. He had been runner-up in another ALLOW at Kyoto before that, so his consistency is clear. The issue is the steep class rise into this company, and his only previous run at this track was unplaced.

Resumes after three months having won the G2 Sapporo Kinen by two and a half lengths, producing a sharp turn of foot to beat Sakura Farrel. His run prior in the G1 Takarazuka Kinen was a long way below that level, but six wins and eleven places from 21 starts at this distance is a powerful base. With a strong record for this jockey, he is a serious chance fresh.

Returns from a six-week freshening after finishing a distant last in the G2 Sankei Sho All Comers at Nakayama, despite being near the top of betting. His G1 Takarazuka Kinen fourth two runs back was a much better piece of form, but he has been unplaced in four starts at this track. A major rebound is required to threaten this field.

Resumed with a seventh in the G2 Mainichi Okan at this track, beaten two and a half lengths as the well-supported favourite after looming and not going on. His Japanese Derby seventh at this venue was also only two and a half lengths from Lovcen. Two wins from two Group 3 starts show quality, and the Tezuka stable record in this race gives him a place profile if he finishes off better.

Back from a two-month break after an 11th in the G3 Challenge Cup at Hanshin, where he was beaten just over six lengths and made no headway. His previous fifth in the G1 Takarazuka Kinen was respectable only in finishing position, with the margin just under eight lengths at long odds. He handles this distance, but recent form leaves him with plenty to find.

Resumes after three months following a sound second in the G2 Sapporo Kinen, beaten two and a half lengths by Shake Your Heart after tracking the speed and working home evenly. He was also close enough when fifth in the G3 Epsom Cup at this track as favourite. Two wins and one place from three starts at this distance underpin a genuine each-way case.

Back from a two-month break after winning the G3 Challenge Cup at Hanshin by a neck from Kalamatianos, driving hard late in a competitive finish. That followed a half-length second in the G3 Kokura Kinen as favourite, so his recent form is reliable. The Group 1 rise and an unplaced lone run at this track are the hurdles, but he is in the right form for a placing chance.

Returns from a lengthy five-month spell after finishing third in the G1 Takarazuka Kinen at Hanshin, beaten just under three lengths after working home late. He had also run third in the G1 Osaka Hai behind Croix Du Nord, which ties him directly into the strongest form. Two wins and five places from nine Group 1 starts, plus a strong record with Keita Tosaki, make him a genuine winning hope despite the draw.
