Urawa Race 4 - Race 4 - 1500
OKASHI DAISUKI MAN (11) clearly sets the standard after winning both starts at Urawa, first by seven lengths over 1300m and then by five lengths when heavily fancied. He has done exactly what the market expected so far and still has the cleanest winning profile. LITTLE ACE (3) is harder to line up because her last-start defeat was plain, beaten over 15 lengths after finding no challenge, but she has the class-drop profile, the light weight and prior Urawa winning form to rebound sharply. SABLE LOVE (2) brings a recent Urawa win over 800m and was still near the top of the market when fourth last time, although the rise to 1500m remains the key test. MERCI COURIR (1) is the each-way anchor among the main hopes, with a Urawa win on the board and enough recent form to press for minor money if he improves third-up.

Returns from a six-week let-up after finishing fifth at Urawa, beaten six and a half lengths by Ukiyono Messiah when near the top of an open market. He had runners ahead turning for home and produced only a moderate finish, after looming but not going on when fourth here the start prior. A previous Urawa win keeps him in the mix, though he looks more a place prospect than a commanding winning chance.

Returns from a six-week let-up after finishing fourth over 800m at Urawa, beaten just over five lengths by Sara Mischief when again respected in an open market. That followed a stronger win here over 800m, scoring by a length and a half from Love Me Henry as short odds-on favourite. The rise to 1500m is the clear query, but her recent Urawa form gives her a solid winning case.

Returns from a six-week let-up needing to answer a poor last-start run, finishing last at Urawa and beaten over 15 lengths by Golden Comanche after settling handy and failing to challenge. Two back she was sixth, beaten just over eight lengths, but did make some late ground from well back. Her light weight and previous Urawa win are positives, yet she must lift sharply to justify her place among the main hopes.

Returns from a lengthy spell after finishing fourth over 800m at Urawa, beaten four and a half lengths by Vina Lao Cai when handy but unable to finish off. His previous run was much weaker, last at Kawasaki and beaten a long way by Bargello after settling rearward. A Urawa win gives him some grounding here, but the rise to 1500m makes this a demanding first-up task.

Returns from a six-week freshening after finishing second last at Urawa, beaten over 14 lengths by Golden Comanche at long odds after conceding a huge start. The run prior at Funabashi was also plain, seventh and beaten just under seven lengths by Narisuna when unable to quicken. Some track form sits in his record, but current evidence says he must find a much sharper finish.

Returns from a four-month break after finishing fifth at Saga, beaten four lengths by Captain Regalo at generous odds when looming without reaching the top three. The start prior was another fifth, beaten eight and a half lengths by Ikeno Asachan despite working home. Those runs have some respectability, but he is new to Urawa and his win strike-rate leaves him with work to do.

Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing tenth at Kawasaki, beaten nine lengths by G Campione when she had the job ahead and made no headway. Her previous Urawa run was also safely held, ninth behind Al Core. The saving grace is a career record of four placings from eight starts and a good place record with Tsubasa Sasagawa, so she can improve into minor money if she recaptures that consistency.

Returns from a six-week let-up after running sixth at Urawa, beaten just over seven lengths by Ukiyono Messiah when long odds but still working home fairly. He had shaped similarly the run before, finishing fifth behind Ange Reine after looking out of contention before closing well. The maiden record tempers the winning case, yet three placings from 12 starts give him a realistic minor-money profile.

Returns from a six-week let-up after finishing sixth at Urawa, beaten just over eight lengths by Golden Comanche while still picking up nicely in the straight. Her previous run was stronger, third behind Lago Di Eye and beaten four lengths after working home evenly. She remains a maiden, but four placings from 12 starts and a familiar rider make her a genuine place chance rather than a win push.

Second-up after a weak return at Funabashi, finishing seventh over 1200m and beaten over 11 lengths by Fluorite when outside the top hopes in betting. His previous Urawa run was no better, ninth and beaten over 12 lengths by Hold Me Once after offering little late. The return to Urawa and this distance is a setup positive, but recent form says he needs a substantial lift.

Returns from a six-week let-up with an unbeaten Urawa record, most recently winning by five lengths from Cinderella Liberty as a prohibitive odds-on favourite. His debut was even more dominant, beating Hapuna by seven lengths over 1300m after quickening clear with plenty in hand. He races like a natural leader and has done everything asked of him, making him the horse the others must bring down.

Finished well held at Funabashi last start, running second last over 1700m behind Ange Luna after settling a long way back and failing to improve at big odds. Her previous Urawa effort was seventh, beaten just over eight lengths by Golden Comanche when unwanted in the market. A minor placing at the distance is the only small positive, but a 19-start maiden record is difficult to overlook.
