Chukyo Race 1 - Mdn Race
VIVERONE (8) finished third on debut ten weeks ago, beaten 1.1 lengths over 1600m at Hanshin, and has not been produced since. Jumps from a wide alley but expected to play a major role. STAR OF THE YEAR (9) ran well on debut last start to finish second over 1400m at this track in a tougher race. Has a wide gate to overcome but she is worth following up. COSMO LUMINA (5) ran a better race last time at his second career start when fourth over 1400m at Niigata. Fitter and looks one of the better chances. KOJI UN (4) was solid on debut last start when beaten 4.5 lengths into sixth over 1800m at Sapporo on August 8. Worth including.

Jumped as a despised roughie at debut, sat on the speed throughout before fading to run last of 9 at this track on August 9 over 1600m, 16 len behind Les Nuages with 55.0kg at $165.60. Cannot enthuse after the moderate debut effort.

Most recently 10th of 16 at Chukyo Dirt on August 15 over 1400m, 9 len behind Smart Potion with 54.0kg at $7.70. The run before that 4th of 9 at this track on July 26 over 1400m, 2.5 len behind Sant'angelo carrying 54.0kg at $29.80. Better than that recent lacklustre performance suggests. Will be winding up strongly.
