Races ORM Kyoto - JAP

Jumped as a despised roughie at debut, 11th of 16 at Hanshin Dirt on April 12 over 1800m, 14 len behind Smart Gloire carrying 57.0kg at $351. Might need more time based on that poor debut.

Third-up today. First-up 2nd of 13 at Chukyo Dirt on March 21 over 1900m, 3 len behind Serge Barows carrying 57.0kg at $12.30. Second-up ran on from midfield; 4th of 15 at Hanshin Dirt on April 18 over 2000m, 4.5 len behind Thisavros with 57.0kg at $16.30. Ran on well to pace only try this trip two back. Capable of a strong showing.

Third-up today. First-up 5th of 12 at Hanshin Dirt on April 5 over 1800m, 7 len behind Taisei Sabre with 53.0kg at $124.50. Second-up 8th of 16 at Hanshin Dirt on April 19 over 1800m, 11 len behind Margot Buddy carrying 54.0kg at $139.90. Needs to step up.

At debut, 6th of 15 at Fukushima Dirt on April 19 over 1700m, 8 len behind Alacran carrying 55.0kg at $22.50. Better for the run and extra trip a plus. Looks a big improver.

Last start 9th of 15 at Hanshin Dirt on April 18 over 2000m, 6 len behind Thisavros carrying 57.0kg at $21. Before that 2nd of 13 at Hanshin Dirt on March 7 over 2000m, 5 len behind Ten Magic Hour with 57.0kg at $96.40. Watch for him dropping on these late.

Was at very long odds at debut, got back early 12th of 15 at Fukushima Dirt on April 11 over 1700m, 25 len behind Shooting Guy with 57.0kg at $117.40. Cannot enthuse after that sub-standard performance.

Most recently 6th of 15 at Hanshin Dirt on April 18 over 2000m, 5 len behind Thisavros with 57.0kg at $5.40. Before that 5th of 12 at Hanshin Dirt on March 1 over 2000m, 1.2 len behind Shallow First with 57.0kg at $19.60. Will be hard to hold out.

Second run back. First-up after two months 13th of 16 at Hanshin Dirt on April 19 over 1800m, 17 len behind Margot Buddy carrying 57.0kg at $136.30. Previously second-up 9th of 16 at Hanshin Dirt on December 7 over 1400m, 9 len behind Joan carrying 56.0kg at $20.90. Must improve significantly.

Resuming after a seven months break. Finished off last preparation fifth of 11 at Hanshin Dirt September 21 over 1800m, 5.5 len behind Tagano Abandonne carrying 55.0kg at $7.70. On debut sixth of 15 at Chukyo Dirt August 3 over 1800m, 7 len behind Ma Vie with 55.0kg at $40.40. Among the better chances.

Resuming. Finished off last preparation 12th of 18 at Kyoto January 24 over 2200m, 13 len behind Black Olympia with 57.0kg at $126.40. When resuming last campaign tenth of 18 at Kyoto January 10 over 2400m, 8 len behind Gaudi carrying 57.0kg at $38.90. Looks up against it.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 15 at Hanshin Dirt on April 18 over 2000m, 4 len behind Thisavros carrying 57.0kg at $9.70. Before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 9 at Hanshin Dirt on March 29 over 2000m, 2 len behind Mr Emerald carrying 57.0kg at $5.90. Overdue for a win. Genuine contender.

Second-up. Comes off a 49-day let-up. First-up after two months 7th of 13 at Chukyo Dirt on March 15 over 1800m, 11 len behind Otsuka carrying 57.0kg at $10.20. Previously second-up 8th of 16 at this track on January 11 over 1400m, 11 len behind Urus Twister carrying 57.0kg at $20.50. Worth consideration.
