Kochi Race 1

1300

Prize Money: $18,070

FLOWER HOPE S (10) Placed 2nd last time here and putting a tidy record together. Has run into the money 3 from 3 attempts this preparation. Minoru Miyagawa is an advantage. Ticks plenty of boxes and looks like value . SUN CALENDULA (4) Shot clear to win by 9L last time at this track and was on debut last time. Has early speed and positions nicely. Recent form of the stable is strong. Deserves consideration. SPICE TOWN (5) Amongst the placegetters when 3rd last run at the track and putting a tidy record together. Recent form of Mamoru Tanaka is strong. Up to these. LOWEN HEARTS (2) Strong performance to win by 1 1/2L last run at the track and putting a tidy record together so far. Won last 2 in succession and gets a favourable draw. Should be around the mark.

Comments

Led and was only run down late when second at this track last start, beaten three lengths by Rikea Bolero after starting at long odds. That was a sharp response to an eighth here the run prior, when beaten over 17 lengths after failing to finish off. His record still reads one win and one placing from three starts, with proven track-and-trip form, and he looks well placed to give this a serious shake.

Comments

Comes in chasing a hat-trick after winning at this track last start, beating Flower Hope S by a length and a half and staying strong through the line. He had been even more decisive the start prior when scoring by four lengths from Josho Allez, also at this venue. With two wins from four starts at this track and distance, his form is hard to knock and he rates as a major player again.

Comments

Finished well held at Mombetsu last start when second last behind Oryza Recolte over 1700m, after settling prominently and offering little in the run home. The run prior was much better, winning over 1000m at Mombetsu as a very short odds-on favourite, but she has not raced at around 1300m before. Her overall place record is sound, yet she must improve sharply off the latest effort.

Made the perfect start on debut at this track, scoring by nine lengths from Atelier after being sent out favourite in a small field. The strength of that win demands respect, and she now gets the chance to confirm it second-up for a leading stable. The limited exposed form is the only restraint, but she has already shown enough at this venue to be a genuine place hope with upside.

Comments

Has placed at all four starts and again kept working when third at this track last start, beaten just over three lengths by Haruga Kita after being near the top of betting. She was second here the start prior, beaten two lengths by Palmgren, so the consistency is genuine. The concern is the lack of a win despite repeated chances, but she is reliable enough to stay in the placings mix.

Was never a factor when fifth in a small field at this track last start, beaten just over six lengths by Haruga Kita after being sent out at long odds. Two back he worked home without threatening when fourth, beaten over 10 lengths by Palmgren. He has placed twice from six starts at this track and distance, but recent margins leave him with plenty to find against sharper rivals.

Made some late ground when fourth behind Lowen Hearts at this track last start, but was still beaten five and a half lengths at generous odds. The start prior was much better, putting the race away quickly to beat Venitienne by three lengths at this venue. She has a track-and-distance win and carries only 52kg, though the latest margin keeps the assessment cautious.

Was beaten six lengths by Lowen Hearts at this track last start after being swamped in the run home, and that followed a second-last finish behind Haruga Kita when unable to launch a serious challenge. She has placed twice from five starts at this track and distance, but recent efforts have come at big odds and lack the finish required to trouble the main chances.

Comments

Arrives in excellent order after consecutive wins at this track, most recently beating Bellagio Izana by two and a half lengths with plenty in hand. She had earlier held off Spice Town by just under a length, and that form has direct relevance again. Two wins and one placing from four starts at this track and distance give her a strong base, and she shapes as one of the hardest to beat.

Expected Settling Position: Leader

Has been second at all three starts, most recently beaten a length and a half by Lowen Hearts at this track after being sent out an odds-on favourite. He was also runner-up here the start prior at very short odds, again beaten a length and a half after working home evenly. The consistency is obvious, but converting those placings into a win remains the sticking point.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield
