Mombetsu Race 5

1700

Prize Money: $9,060

KEIKI KANE (4) is the horse to beat after putting a Mombetsu race away by three lengths last start, a win that had more merit given he had been an outside chance in betting. His previous second to Reviendra also reads well now, and his one win and one place from four starts at this track and distance gives him the right grounding. VIRGIN RAINBOW (6) is the main danger after scoring over 1500m here last time, with the rise in trip the only real question against an otherwise progressive profile. ORYZA RECOLTE (8) has to rebound from a plain fifth behind River Luminous, but his track-and-distance win two back and 53kg keep him in the conversation. MIND ANGEL (2) is consistent, with thirds at her past two starts, though both were over shorter trips and her chance is built more around another honest placing than a sharp winning push.

Comments

Comes off a strong Mombetsu win, beating Vainqueur by a length and a half after letting down well and still having something in hand. That followed a third to Bellagio Miraggio over 1500m, when he was beaten just over five lengths and did not quicken as expected. Barrier 1 suits his natural forward pattern, but he sits just outside the main hopes in a deeper contest.

Comments

Returns from a six-week freshening after finishing third to Radio Girl over 1100m at Mombetsu, beaten four lengths in an open market where she only battled on. She had also been third to Lua Shuer over 1200m the run prior, so her consistency is clear. The sharp rise in trip is the query, but her five-start record keeps her a genuine minor-money player.

Comments

Has been safely held at the past two starts, finishing sixth to Trend Line over 1200m at Mombetsu after having many lengths to make up, then seventh to A Shin Freude at the same trip. There was some late effort last start, and his overall track record is respectable, but he is rising in distance off plain figures and must find a stronger finishing edge.

Comments

Put the race away decisively at Mombetsu last start, beating Full Of Pops by three lengths after quickening sharply on fast ground. That followed a close second to Reviendra when unwanted in the market, so his improvement has been clear through the past two runs. With one win and one place from four at this track and distance, he brings the strongest winning profile.

Comments

Back from a two-month break after finishing fourth to Queue Balancee at Mombetsu, beaten three and a half lengths after leading at long odds. Her previous win over 1500m here, when she beat Virgin Rainbow by a length, gives her some relevance in this line-up. The fresh gap and market profile keep her more in the each-way bracket than among the leading chances.

Built on earlier Mombetsu form when winning over 1500m last start, beating Calm Ring by just under a length after being an outside chance in betting. Two back she was well held by Overcrowd, beaten eight and a half lengths, but the latest run was a clear step forward. The extra ground has to be proven, yet her last-start win gives her a strong platform to challenge again.

Comments

Has mixed honest finishing positions with modest beaten margins, most recently fourth to Sirindhorn over 1200m at Mombetsu after settling back and finishing just under six lengths away. She was third to A Shin Freude the start before, but was unwanted in the market there. The rise in distance adds another challenge, and others arrive with sharper claims.

Returns from a five-week freshening after a fading fifth to River Luminous at Mombetsu, beaten just over eight lengths after leading. The run prior is the better guide, when he held off Ryuno Pirates by a head at big odds, and he has one win from three starts at this track and distance. With 53kg he can bounce into a placing if closer to that win.

Expected Settling Position: Leader
