Tokyo Race 3 - Mdn Race
SCHON LICHT (14) Back from a break. Nice effort to run into 3rd beaten by 1 1/2L last start at Niigata and having second race start. Among better hopes. TAISEI SOARING (7) Picked up some late ground when 4th last start at this track. Right in this. POLTERGEIST (10) Came in 6th last run at Niigata. Looking past the last run. This field suits. CAPELLA TESORO (4) First up after a break. Showed some merit late when 5th last time at Fukushima. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Can be competitive.

Returns from a five-week let-up after finishing tenth at Tokyo Dirt, where he settled just off the lead but was beaten a long way and unwanted in the market. His debut sixth at Nakayama Dirt was also well held, beaten over 18 lengths in a NEWCOMER. Race fitness helps, but a first look at around 2000m and poor figures leave him with a major task.

Resumes after three months off with a poor form base to overcome. He ended the previous campaign last at Sapporo Dirt, beaten out of sight after settling a long way back, and was also last in a six-runner race at Sapporo the run prior. Unplaced in all five starts and unwanted in the market last time, he will have to lift substantially.

Made his debut in a NEWCOMER over 1800m at this track and finished seventh, beaten just under five lengths by Nova Lux after lacking a change of gears late. The move into a Mdn is a kinder assignment and he has race experience now, but he has not raced around 2000m before and must show more finishing power.

Returns from a lengthy spell after a sound fifth at Fukushima, beaten just under two lengths by Vip Venus when an outside chance in the betting. His debut sixth at the same venue was plain, though not hopeless, after starting at long odds. With only two runs behind him there is scope, but he still has to prove he can convert that promise into a placing.

Resumes after three months off following a third at Niigata, where she held a narrow lead and tried hard before being beaten just under six lengths by La Garriga. Her debut at Fukushima was less convincing, but she has placed once from two starts and has already done so with this jockey. A repeat of the Niigata effort gives her a genuine minor-money case.

Race fitness is in his favour, but the latest sixth at this track was only fair and he was beaten just under eight lengths after being unwanted in the market. His previous sixth at Sapporo was also safely held at long odds. He has had three starts around 2000m without a win or placing, so this profiles more as a minor-place hope than a winning case.

Improved into the right race shape last start when fourth at this track, beaten just under three lengths by Monarch's Valor after settling rearward. The start prior at Nakayama was plain, but his latest effort is the strongest recent exposed form in this field and the ratings support him across recent form and this distance range. Still winless around 2000m, yet this looks his best chance to break through.

Has been well beaten in both starts, most recently seventh at Tokyo Dirt where he gave nothing in the straight and finished well beaten by 21 lengths at big odds. His debut at Niigata Dirt was no better, beaten a long way in a NEWCOMER. Weight relief and third-up fitness are positives, but he has not raced around 2000m and must find a new level.

Returns from a five-week let-up after a debut fourth in a NEWCOMER at this track, beaten five lengths by Silver Noble after starting unwanted in the market. He did not quicken, so there is improvement to come in that part of the race, but he now has experience and moves into a more suitable Mdn. With natural progression second-up, he is one of the better winning hopes.

Kept improving from a long-priced debut when sixth at Niigata last start, beaten two and a half lengths by Stern Light while near the top of an open market. He was beaten over 12 lengths at this track first time out after conceding a huge start, so the latest result was more relevant. Third-up now, he has a realistic place profile if he handles the first try around 2000m.

Returns from a lengthy spell after finishing fifth on debut at Niigata, beaten just over five lengths by Korallion at long odds. He had the drop on the leaders there but could not go on with it, which leaves the finishing strength as the key question. A ¥8.6m yearling purchase with only one start behind him, he can be entertained for a placing if he has furnished.

Was fifth on debut at this track, beaten eight lengths by Yumeno Kakera after settling well back and finishing decently without ever looking likely. That was an encouraging enough closing effort in patches, and the move from NEWCOMER to Mdn helps. Even so, he was unwanted in the market and must make a clear second-up jump to threaten the better chances.

Has the benefit of being third-up, but recent results are hard to overlook. He was eighth at this track last start, beaten seven and a half lengths behind Monarch's Valor at big odds, and had already been beaten over 19 lengths at Nakayama. He also finished behind Taisei Soaring at this venue, so he looks a minor hope only if the ratings positives translate into much sharper race-day output.

Returns from a lengthy spell after an encouraging debut third at Niigata, beaten a length and a half by Ho O Monopoly after working into the race nicely. He was near the top of betting there, so the performance had market substance, and he has placed in his only start on good ground. A ¥85.8m yearling purchase with a leading track jockey engaged, he profiles as a serious winning chance fresh.

Resumes after three months off following a sixth in the G3 Niigata Nisai Stakes, beaten just over eight lengths by Lotschberg after being unwanted in the market. The margin was clear, but that was a far stronger reference than standard maiden form and she was only having her first race start. If she has taken benefit from that stakes exposure, she can be right in the winning discussion.
