Himeji Race 9

1400

Prize Money: $20,601

TAKKA BULLET (1) landed his maiden success over this course and distance last time, scoring by 5 lengths. Drawn to enjoy a lovely run and he is likely to feature in the finish again. GARDEN CAMELLIA (8) kicked off this prep with a win four weeks ago, scoring over 1400m at Sonoda. Has a win and four placings at this journey from five starts. Race sets up well for her. SAIKODANE (4) started at $5.50 last time and ran below expectations, finishing fifth and beaten 2.25 lengths at this track over 800m. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. TOSHIN HANA (2) turned things around last start and got the job done by one length over 1400m at Sonoda. Has her share of talent. Hard to beat again in this suitable race.

Useful mare. Most recently came from midfield and won by 1.0 len at Sonoda January 16 over 1400m defeating Pod Murphy carrying 54kg at $10.50. Before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 10 at Sonoda on January 4 over 1400m, 4 len behind Besupoji with 54kg at $3.20. Drawn to advantage and looks a solid chance.

Comments
Last start 5th of 12 at this track on January 21 over 800m, 2.25 len behind Smash Hit with 56kg at $5.50. Before that set the pace for much of the race 2nd of 12 at Sonoda on December 31 over 1230m, neck behind Sun Piano Sonata carrying 56kg at $21.50. Showed enough last start to suggest he can take this out.

1400m

Comments
Second-up. First-up after nine months favourite; won by 2.5 len at Sonoda January 9 over 1400m defeating Sun Nerine carrying 52kg at $1.60. Previously second-up 3rd of 16 at Hanshin Dirt on December 16 2023 over 1400m, 3 len behind Vendome carrying 55.0kg at $5.70. Only needs to hold that form to be winning again. Goes close.

At the latest run raced on the pace before fading 8th of 12 at this track on January 21 over 800m, 6 len behind Smash Hit carrying 56kg at $75.40. Before that 7th of 9 at Sonoda on December 29 over 820m, 3.5 len behind Smash Hit carrying 56kg at $20.50. Needs plenty of luck to trouble the top few.

Useful entire. Last start couldn't go on with it; 8th of 11 at Sonoda on January 15 over 1400m, 8 len behind Dawn Chorus carrying 56kg at $15.10. The start before that won by 1.3 len at Sonoda January 2 over 1400m defeating Fevrier carrying 56kg at $10.80. Cannot be ruled out despite a moderate effort last time.

Most recently ran last of 12 at this track on January 23 over 1500m, 11 len behind Quick Queen with 56kg at $69.80. Before that 6th of 10 at Sonoda on January 4 over 1230m, 5 len behind Agnes Ryu with 56kg at $7. Has speed but unlikely to be there at the finish.
