Kasamatsu Race 7

1400

Prize Money: $9,138

BLUE TICE (7) really dug deep to get the prize by a nose three runs back at this track before filling a minor placing at his last two starts. Should be prominent from the outset. Hard to beat on the back of that sort of form. SHARONA (2) ran well below her best last time over 1400m at this track, finishing fourth starting at $4. Makoto Okabe who has six wins when partnering stays on. Leading contender. KAZU ORVAL (5) fought on well for third last start over 1600m at this track, making it two minor placings in a row. Finds a suitable race and can go on to take this out. NOAH BLACK (6) showed early speed from an outside draw and held a forward position before fading to finish fourth last start over 1600m at this track. Worth including.

Third-up today and won third-up in the past. Resuming made ground from midfield; 2nd of 8 at this track on February 21 over 1400m, 2.5 len behind Flugel with 56kg at $5.60. Second-up made ground from midfield; 3rd of 10 at this track on March 21 over 1600m, 5.5 len behind Labuanbajo with 56kg at $10.40. Capable of a better showing. Respect.

Going well. Last start sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 10 at this track on March 21 over 1600m, 6 len behind Labuanbajo carrying 56kg at $29.60. Before that raced on the pace when 2nd of 10 at this track on March 5 over 1400m, neck behind Glaux carrying 57kg at $7.20. Mediocre effort last time out but this suits.

Comments

Most recently tried to lead throughout but was claimed late 2nd of 8 at this track on March 5 over 1400m, neck behind Cross Raising with 56kg at $1.40. The run before that led but faded 3rd of 10 at this track on February 18 over 1600m, 2.5 len behind Drum Lime with 56kg at $5. Well placed to take this out.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield
