Urawa Race 2 - Race 2 - 1500
COMBAT KICK (4) Came in 6th last time at the track. Has the potential to improve sharply. Should be right in the finish. COMBAT STATE (8) First up after a break. Amongst the placegetters when 3rd last time at the track. Has plenty of early speed. Solid each way claims. KANETOSHI RIPER (1) Performed below standard when 12th last start at Kawasaki but gets the perfect barrier. First appearance for a new trainer and going up in distance. Likely threat. SIENA SUPER (6) Finished 2nd last run at Funabashi. Expected to settle towards the rear. Can make a claim.

Returns from a five-week let-up after finishing last over 900m at Kawasaki, beaten over 14 lengths by Stark when he settled midfield and made no impression late. His start prior was a third at Kawasaki, but that still came with a margin of beaten over 10 lengths behind Action Briquet. He has had two previous starts around 1500m without a placing, so a sharp lift is required.

Resumes after two months off following a last at Kasamatsu where he finished well held behind Serval Mind and was weak through the line. He had also been last there the start prior, beaten a long way by Michael after being unwanted in the market. Four placings from 17 runs around 1500m give a sliver of grounding, but current form leaves him with plenty to find.

Was never in the race when last at Funabashi over 1200m, beaten over 19 lengths by Hakuai Goburei after conceding a huge start. The run prior was more even, and his broader record is not hopeless with one win and seven places from 18 starts. He has placed three times from five at this distance, which gives him a minor-money route if he rebounds sharply.

Has been mixing around the mark without winning, most recently sixth at this track, beaten just over six lengths by Aeolian Ridge after sitting handy and failing to finish off. His previous fifth at this venue was also short of winning standard, but six placings from eleven starts and two local placings give him one of the steadier profiles in the race. A winning breakthrough is within reach.

Third-up now after finishing fifth at this track, beaten over 12 lengths by Willy's Rock when she loomed up but could not go on with it. Two back she was 13th in a Mdn at Niigata, beaten just over eight lengths at long odds. She remains unplaced from six starts and is also unplaced around 1500m, but race fitness gives her some chance of hanging on for a minor placing.

Worked home strongly for second over 1200m at Funabashi last start, beaten a length and a half by Stocktaking after having the job ahead. That was a clear step forward from his sixth behind White Nile, and he now gets to his third run this campaign with weight relief. His one previous try around 1500m was unplaced, but his latest finish gives him the clearest winning case.

Finished ninth at this track last start, beaten over 12 lengths by Aeolian Ridge after settling handy and offering little in the straight. She had been last in a B2 at Morioka Dirt before that, beaten over 19 lengths by Nike Felice and unwanted in the market. Combat Kick had her measure recently, and with more weight than last start she must improve sharply.

Returns from a six-month break after ending his last preparation with a third at this track, beaten just over five lengths by Tranquil Light after holding a narrow lead and trying hard. His start prior was a ninth at this venue, beaten over 12 lengths, so there is some inconsistency. Two placings from six starts, plus a solid record with this jockey, keep him in the place mix.
