Urawa Race 3 - Race 3 - 1400
SAKINO CLOVER (11) Ran 4th last start at Funabashi. Expected to rebound. Jockey Takayuki Yano is currently in strong form for this stable. Showing great form since returning from a break. Sure to be thereabouts. DARE TO KNOW (5) Underperformed when 10th last start at Tokyo City Keiba. Happy to forgive that run. Racing for a new trainer. Won't be far away. COMBAT IZUMO (9) Backing up quickly for this race. Fairly underwhelming when 6th last run at Kawasaki but returns to more ground. Has to be strongly considered. M ONE SHIGERU (7) Ran 6th last time at Funabashi. Will be positive in the run early. One of the chances.

Resumed with a plain seventh at Funabashi over 1200m, beaten over 11 lengths behind Teleos Hina after travelling just off the speed and battling from there. The start prior was no better, finishing last behind Kamikaze Sky at long odds. She is unplaced in 14 starts and has no placing from four tries around 1400m, so substantial improvement is required.

Second-up after a fair fourth at this track, beaten nine and a half lengths by First Attack but holding his ground to the line despite being at long odds. His earlier eighth at this venue was well held, and the 1400m record remains a query, but this colt is lightly raced and comes from a leading Urawa stable with a leading jockey booked. In a modest line-up, he has the right profile to break through.

Finished eighth at Funabashi last start, beaten over 11 lengths by Teleos Hina after settling a long way back and making no impression. Two back he was beaten over 19 lengths behind Pod Shank, again from well off them. Weight relief and race fitness help slightly, but an unplaced 15-start career record leaves him hard to support with confidence.

Worked home from the rear for fifth at Funabashi last start, beaten just under eight lengths behind Teleos Hina at big odds. He had shown more when third behind Ficus Lyrata the run prior, beaten four lengths as a well-supported favourite. The new 1400m trip is the main query, but his recent form is sound enough to keep him in the minor-money discussion.

Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing tenth at Ohi over 1200m, beaten over 10 lengths by Samani Denka with no clear excuse. Two back she was also tenth in a Mdn at Niigata Dirt, where she tracked the speed but did not quicken. The positive is her 1400m record, with two placings from three tries around this distance, and that gives her a genuine winning angle if she sharpens up fourth-up.

Finished last at Funabashi most recently, beaten a long way behind Teleos Hina after being unwanted in the market. That followed a sixth behind Hakuai Goburei, beaten over 14 lengths, so the form has gone the wrong way this campaign. The light weight and race fitness are positives, but she has to find far more than she has shown lately.

Was sixth at Funabashi first-up, beaten over 10 lengths behind Teleos Hina after racing prominently and fading late. He is lightly raced and has placed once from three starts, with another placing from two rides under this jockey, so there is some minor-placing depth in the profile. The first attempt around 1400m is the question, and he looks more a place hope than a firm winning push.

Back from a three-month break after ending her last preparation with a 16th at Chukyo in a Mdn, beaten nine and a half lengths by God Eye at long odds. Her previous run at Hanshin Dirt was also plain, but she resumes for Gen Hayashi and is rated strongly against this field. The lack of a 1400m placing is a genuine question, yet this fresh start gives her a clear chance to improve sharply.

Comes back quickly after a sixth at Kawasaki over 900m, beaten eight and a half lengths by Lady Cutie after giving away a big start and only working home fairly. She was also well held at this venue two back behind Kura Oryu. Her career record includes a win and three placings, but the step to 1400m is a concern given she is unplaced in four attempts at the distance.

Resumed with a distant ninth at Funabashi, beaten over 12 lengths by Teleos Hina after settling well back and making no impression. The run before a break was also poor, finishing tenth behind Jun Pirka and beaten over 18 lengths. She has won once from 12 starts, but the current form is well short of what is required to trouble the better chances.

Has been honest without winning this campaign, finishing fourth at Funabashi last start behind Teleos Hina after failing to quicken, following a third behind Hakuai Goburei when sent out favourite. He has placed twice from four starts and brings some of the better recent form in the race. The first try at 1400m is the hurdle, but he is well in the mix for a placing.
