Tokyo Race 9 - Koyo Stakes

MIKKI SOLDIER (1) First up specialist. Narrowly denied victory last start at Niigata and has drawn the rails. Won't be far away during the run. Honest performer putting a tidy record together. Has the ability to figure. EL MAGO (9) Could build on a strong first up record. Ran 9th last start at Sapporo but have to respect the form at this trip. Has to be included. ERHABEN (7) Finished well when winning last run at Kyoto. Ultra competitive this preparation with 2 wins from 2 starts. Looks to be value. TERRA MERITA (6) Managed to place 3rd beaten by 1/2L last run at Hanshin. In top racing shape since coming back from a spell. Has the ability to take this out.

Returns from a three-month break after going within a nose of Cave Pearl at Niigata, where he was sent out favourite and pipped right on the post. The start prior he won an ALLOW at this track by two lengths from G T Man, and his 1600m record reads two wins and one place from three attempts. Proven at this venue and trip, he has the right profile to be a major winning threat fresh.

Returns from a five-week let-up after finishing 12th at Nakayama, beaten over 17 lengths by Sound Move, with no obvious excuse after settling just off the lead. His previous seventh at this track was better, beaten three and a half lengths after picking up late, and he is proven at 1600m. Even so, the latest run leaves him with plenty to repair against sharper rivals.

Returns from a five-month break after winning at this track, where she scored by just over a length from Cool Daytona despite being at long odds. She had been fourth in an ALLOW here the start prior, beaten just over three lengths behind Danon Emblem, so the improvement was clear. A track-and-trip winner with three wins at around 1600m, she has enough substance to press for a placing.

Returns from a three-month break after a plain ninth in the G3 Leopard Stakes at Niigata Dirt, beaten over 12 lengths by Coeli Vento after settling back and making no late impression. The start prior was far stronger, winning at Tokyo Dirt as short odds-on favourite from Hokiboshi. His career and 1600m statistics are excellent, so a return to that earlier level puts him in the place mix.

Returns from a two-month let-up after finishing 13th at Hanshin, beaten just over six lengths by In Vogue after failing to finish off. His fourth at Fukushima beforehand was sounder, beaten just under two lengths by Mirabilis Magic, and he is third-up with Akihide Tsumura back aboard after two wins from five on him. Place claims remain, but Terra Merita holds the recent edge from Hanshin.

Returns from a two-month freshening with the strongest recent form, having finished third at Hanshin behind In Vogue after being well-supported favourite and beaten just over half a length. That followed a Chukyo second, beaten a neck by Hawaiian Tiare, so she has been knocking on the door. With three wins and eight places from 17 starts at 1600m, she brings the most reliable winning case.

Has won both runs this campaign, most recently beating Isle Du Lien by a neck at Kyoto after making up strong late ground. He had also scored at Chukyo from Bersa with something in hand, and his overall record of three wins and one place from five starts underlines his upside. Already placed at this track and around 1600m, he is a genuine winning chance in current form.

Returns from a lengthy spell of over a year, which is the main issue despite ending the last campaign with a solid second at Kyoto, beaten half a length by Tagano Elpida in ALLOW grade. His Chukyo tenth before that was only fair and he was unwanted in the market at Kyoto. The 1600m record is respectable, but the long absence makes him hard to support with confidence.

Returns from a three-month break after a disappointing ninth at Sapporo, beaten just under nine lengths by Watashi Matsuwa after giving away too much ground. His previous ALLOW win at this track was much more compelling, charging home as a well-supported favourite to beat Olibanum by just under two lengths. That track-and-trip quality keeps him a place chance if he rebounds.

Returns from a four-month break after winning at Niigata by a length from Gene King, finishing strongly from off the speed at generous odds. He had earlier run fifth in the G3 Radio Nikkei Sho, beaten two and a half lengths by Sanono Greater at long odds, which gives him some depth. The overall profile is still patchy, so he will have to find another step to trouble the main hopes.

Comments

Second-up after a sharp third at this track, beaten a long neck by Vogel at long odds after finishing off impressively. His previous seventh here came after conceding a huge start and he was again big odds, so market confidence has been limited. The query is the 1600m record, having been unplaced in both tries, but his latest effort gives him live place claims.

Returns from an eight-month break after a ninth at Nakayama, beaten four and a half lengths by Straight Talker in ALLOW grade when in touch but unable to threaten. He had been tenth there the start prior and has been unplaced in all seven starts across the past 12 months. With no placing from six tries at this track and distance, others make far more appeal.

Returns from a five-week let-up in winning form after edging out Fumi Sound at Nakayama, tracking the leader and fighting hard to score by a neck. That followed a Sapporo third behind Watashi Matsuwa when beaten three lengths, so he has built nicely through the campaign. The 1600m record is not dominant, but his current form and rider combination make him a strong winning hope.

Comes in chasing three straight after winning at this track by just over a length from La Peinture, quickening strongly when the race was there to be won. He had also scored at Niigata from Grianmhar, so the winning habit is firmly established. His 1600m record is only one placing from three, but the current form is honest enough to keep him in the place picture.
