Kochi Race 4

1600

Prize Money: $12,462

PASION BLOND (1) could only manage sixth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1300m at this track, beaten only 1.75 lengths after being in the firing line on the turn. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role. MEINER BORDERLESS (4) is struggling to break through but hasn't been far away, the latest effort a fourth beaten 2 lengths over 1300m at this track. Has been thereabouts without winning and should go very well. THESE DAYS (6) finished fifth two runs back then did well last start but found a couple better over 1300m at this track, beaten only 1.3 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can figure in the finish. MANTARO (7) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago but was less impressive last time out when ninth over 1400m at this track, beaten 27 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can figure prominently.

Useful type. At the latest run crossed from a wide gate to lead but couldn't hold on when 3rd of 12 at this track on May 3 over 1300m, 1.75 len behind Rinno Legend with 57kg at $2.20. Before that 6th of 10 at this track on April 20 over 1400m, 5 len behind In Orbit carrying 57kg at $5.60. Making headway. Likely to measure up again.

Going well. Most recently 4th of 12 at this track on May 3 over 1300m, 2 len behind Rinno Legend with 57kg at $4. The race before that crossed from a wide gate to settle just off the pace but gave ground when 2nd of 10 at this track on April 19 over 1400m, 2.5 len behind Naimama with 57kg at $5.20. Can improve on that reasonable effort last time out.
