Urawa Race 9 - Urawa C1
RIKO MICA (10) was prominent from the outset when second over 1400m at this track last time out. Form here at this trip is sound. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Expected to be in the finish. G T AMOUR (5) is a talented type yet to taste defeat after two runs this campaign, the latest over 1500m at this track. Same rider aboard and looks a leading player again. AZUKICHAN (6) did a great job to score by half a length over this course and distance last time out to make it two-for-two this prep. Must raise the bar but this looks well within her grasp. CHOCOLAT ECLAIR (2) finished third here two runs back but didn't measure up last time over 1500m at this track, finishing back in seventh. Finds a nice race and can atone.

At the latest run couldn't go on with it; 7th of 9 at this track on June 26 over 1500m, 37 len behind Jo Salute with 53kg at $2.30. Before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 9 at this track on May 26 over 1400m, 7 len behind Public Sphere carrying 54kg at $15.40. Drawn to advantage and looks a solid chance.

Third-up today and placed third-up in the past. First-up tried to lead throughout but was claimed late 2nd of 9 at this track on May 26 over 1400m, 1.0 len behind Public Sphere carrying 54kg at $3.80. Last start raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 10 at this track on June 25 over 1400m, 0.8 len behind Daigo Homare Ryu with 54kg at $1.30. Capable of a better showing. Respect.
