Tokyo Race 2 - Mdn Race
CRYSTAL SUGAR (6) Solid run when placing 3rd last run at this track and was on debut last time. Jockey Christophe Patrice Lemaire rates highly aboard. Deserves consideration. TENTATRICE (10) Put in a competitive run when placing 2nd beaten by 1/2L last run at Nakayama and fitter for debut run. Can get the job done. CELESTINA (11) Lost momentum when 5th last run at Nakayama. Respect against this field. SOPRANO QUEEN (7) Ran on when 3rd last time around here. Can win.

Back from a three-month break, comes off a debut sixth in a NEWCOMER over 1400m at Niigata, where she settled rearward and was beaten just under five lengths behind Eclat De Lion at generous odds. She is still very lightly raced and draws barrier 1, but she has not raced at around 1600m before. The easier set-up helps, though her exposed form says she must lift sharply.

Was sent out favourite at Niigata last start but could only finish fifth, beaten two and a half lengths, after failing to quicken when the race demanded it. Her fourth in the G3 Niigata Nisai Stakes prior was a stronger reference point, even if she was beaten just under five lengths there. Fourth-up fitness helps, but three unplaced runs around 1600m keep her more in the place mix than as a clear win play.

Worked home evenly for second at this track last start, beaten just over a length by Tiaraed after starting at generous odds. That was a clear step in the right direction after an eighth at Nakayama, and she now comes here third-up with one placing from one try at the distance. The latest run puts her among the minor hopes, but she still has to prove she can reproduce it strongly enough to win.

Led on debut in a NEWCOMER at this track and held fourth, beaten two and a half lengths by Spalliera after being swamped late. That was a sound first look at race pressure, and the move into a Mdn second-up gives her a more suitable assignment. Tom Marquand takes the ride and she has enough early speed to be prominent, making her a genuine place hope with upside.

Finished sixth at this track last start, beaten nine and a half lengths behind Tiaraed, and the final effort was only moderate after sitting behind a few turning for home. Her prior run at Fukushima Dirt was also plain, beaten over 17 lengths at big odds. With no placing from three starts and little recent market confidence, she has a sizeable gap to bridge.

Made a positive debut in a NEWCOMER over 1400m at this track, finishing third and beaten just under two lengths by Mist Vale after being near the top of betting. The move to 1600m is new, so that is the one query, but she has already shown race-day substance and now gets Christophe Lemaire, the top-ranked jockey for wins at this track. She looks a strong winning chance.

Worked home well into third at this track last start, beaten just over two lengths by Golden Honey Bee at generous odds. That was her first run back and she now returns second-up with one placing from one start at 1600m, plus a placing from two starts at this venue. Her earlier debut was well held, but the latest effort is the form to judge her on and it reads well for this.

Was unwanted in the market on debut at this track and finished seventh in a NEWCOMER over 1400m, beaten seven and a half lengths by Mist Vale after conceding a big start. She was beaten by Crystal Sugar in that race and has not raced at around 1600m before. The class drop is some help, but the debut leaves her with plenty of ground to make up.

Ran a tidy third on debut in a NEWCOMER at this track, beaten a length and a half by Break Solo after settling rearward as an outside chance in the betting. She is still learning, but that first-up placing gives her a solid foundation and the class drop into a Mdn suits. As a half brother to Group 3 winner Veloce Era, there is enough profile to keep her in the place discussion.

Returns from a two-month freshening after a strong debut second over 1800m at Nakayama, beaten half a length by Slow Boogie after finishing off with real purpose. She has not raced at around 1600m before, so the back-up in trip is the only qualification, but Takeshi Yokoyama is a strong booking and that debut performance is the best recent reference in this field. She is the one to beat.

Returns from a two-month freshening after finishing fifth at Nakayama, beaten eight and a half lengths by Athena Brave when near the top of an open market. Her debut fifth at Niigata was better on margin, but she is still unplaced from two starts and has been unplaced at the distance. Third-up status gives her some fitness base, though others bring sharper finishing form.
