Urawa Race 11 - Race 11 - 1500

LIVI FACE (1) First up after a break. Looked good when 2nd last run at this venue and will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Should come to hand quickly. Appears well in this. AIRPORT LINER (10) Chimed in with a win by 1 1/2L last run around here. Undefeated last 3 starts. Jockey Tsubasa Sasagawa has a high strike rate on board. One of the major players. BLUMENGARTEN (2) Nice effort when winning by 2 1/2L last start at Funabashi and can find a nice position from the draw. Jockey Norifumi Mikamoto is an asset. A win wouldn't surprise. ENERGY POCO A POCO (11) First up from a break of 14 weeks and tidy run when 2nd first up last preparation here. Jockey Ryou Nobata and trainer Kenichi Shigeta are a proven combination. Stays under notice.

Returns from a lengthy five-month spell after a brave second at this track, beaten a length and a half as an odds-on favourite by Stanley Tesoro. He had won strongly at this venue the start prior, beating Edono Banzai by two and a half lengths, and earlier beat Airport Liner and Tonopah. With four placings from four at this track and trip, he has genuine minor claims fresh.

Put a plain Ohi run behind him in decisive fashion at Funabashi, winning an A2B1 over 1200m by two and a half lengths from Laser Show when near the top of betting. The move to 1500m is the one query given his lone previous try around this trip was unplaced, but he is third-up, race fit and has won two from three with Norifumi Mikamoto. He profiles as a strong winning chance.

Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing seventh at Ohi, beaten over 11 lengths at big odds and never looking likely. She was also seventh there the run prior after racing handy but failing to finish off. Her low weight and proven 1500m record keep her in the minor-money conversation, but recent form says she must find a sharper closing effort.

Made some late ground when sixth behind Airport Liner at this track, beaten four and a half lengths at generous odds. The run prior at Funabashi was similar, with Shimizu Minato beating him by five and a half lengths after he was never a winning hope. His broader 1500m record is useful, but recent results leave him with a clear gap to close on the main chances.

Has been beaten a long way at both recent starts, finishing ninth behind Airport Liner at this track by over 12 lengths after settling rearward. She was also second last at Funabashi two back, beaten just over seven lengths, and the market has shown little interest. A return to earlier form would be required before she can be entertained seriously.

Back after six weeks on the sidelines following a distant last at Kawasaki over 2100m, where he was unwanted in the market. He was also well held at Ohi two back after conceding a big start. The return to a more suitable 1500m is a positive and his record at this track is strong, but his latest form leaves him with plenty to prove.

Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing eighth at Ohi, beaten over 11 lengths at long odds and unable to make any impression. Two back she was fourth there, beaten just under four lengths, which reads better, but the latest run was plain. She has won at this track and distance before, though a much stronger finish is required to threaten.

Worked into third behind Airport Liner at this track last start, beaten three and a half lengths at generous odds, which was a clear step back in the right direction. His previous Ohi run over 1800m was well below his best, but he is third-up now and his record at this track and distance is reliable. The favourite has the score on the board, yet he is a credible danger.

Comments

Finished fifth behind Airport Liner at this track last start, beaten just over four lengths after being near the top of an open market. He had earlier run third at Funabashi in a B1B2, beaten two lengths by Shimizu Minato, so the recent form is honest enough without looking dominant. His record with Wada Joji is a plus, but place claims look stronger than winning claims.

Chases a fourth straight win after scoring at this track by a length and a half from Ken Atlas as favourite. He had also beaten Ken Atlas in an A2B1 the start prior, showing he could win both narrowly and with authority. Six wins and six placings from 17 at this track and distance is a powerful base, and his record with Tsubasa Sasagawa adds another clear positive. He is the one to beat.

Comments

Returns from a four-month break after finishing sixth behind Airport Liner at this track, beaten just under three lengths when near the top of betting. He had been second to Stanley Tesoro at this venue before that, so the form has some substance. Two wins and two placings from eight at this track and distance keep him in the mix, but the wide draw and fresh setup leave others more appealing.

Comments

Resumed with a sound second at Ohi, beaten three lengths by Assurbanipal after being only an outside chance in betting. The run gives him a platform second-up, and his 1500m record of four wins and three placings from 11 starts is a strong supporting angle. This is his first look at this track, but if he repeats that fresh effort he can be right in the placings.
