Tokyo City Keiba Race 2

1400

Prize Money: $59,049

MONTANA MAGIC (2) Ran 5th last time here. Happy to overlook that run and fitter for debut run. Jockey Tsubasa Sasagawa and trainer Tomohiro Arai are a formidable team. Drawn nicely. Winning prospect. ASTER STINGER (5) Only fair when 6th last start at this track but having second career run. Rising in weight. Key player. DANNOURA (7) Below standard effort when 8th last run at the track. Might have to make up considerable ground. Big danger. SABUNO GRANDSON (3) Performed below standard when 6th last start at the track but was on debut last time. Capable of better.

Comments

Debuted over 1600m at this track and was near the top of an open market, so there was clearly some expectation, even though he finished a distant last behind Shonan Harbor. He had runners ahead turning for home and failed to come into the race, with no obvious excuse offered. The new 1400m is a small unknown, but the class drop and second-up scope make him the runner to beat.

Comments

Was safely held on debut in the same 1600m race won by Shonan Harbor, finishing fifth but still beaten a long way after settling miles back. He did finish ahead of Tony Bryan there, though the market gave him little chance at big odds. Tsubasa Sasagawa taking the ride is a positive, and class relief keeps him in the place mix if he shows more early intent.

Comments

Returns after five weeks on the sidelines following a very plain debut at this track, where he finished a distant last in a six-runner race won by La Vague. He settled rearward and gave further ground in a weak run to the line, while the market had him at big odds. The class drop is some help, but he has plenty to find before becoming a genuine threat.

Comments

Was never competitive on debut over 1600m at this track, finishing last behind Shonan Harbor and beaten out of sight after giving away a big start in the lane. He was unwanted in the market and there was no obvious excuse in the run. The 52kg impost and class drop are small positives, but he has to make a major leap off that first appearance.

Comments

Debuted over 1200m at this track and was never competitive behind Princess Ribbon, finishing sixth after being in touch early and offering little soon after. He was only an outside chance in the betting, so the run did not come as a major shock. The rise to an untried 1400m is the query, but class relief gives him a rough place profile in this line-up.

Comments

Has been well beaten at her past two starts over 1200m at this track, finishing last behind Yuyu Venture most recently after settling rearward and weakening, after a second-last behind Rovaniemi. She is race fit and gets weight relief, but she remains unplaced from five starts and tries 1400m for the first time. Improvement is required to turn that around.

Comments

Brings more exposed race experience than most of these and now gets class relief with a light weight, which keeps him high in calculations despite a modest form line. He was eighth behind Yuyu Venture last start, beaten over 13 lengths, after finishing sixth behind Will On The Move. His 1400m record is unplaced from two tries, but this is a more suitable opening to improve.
