Himeji Race 11 - Race 11 - 1800

MONGE GIFT (4) has two wins and two minor placings from four runs this campaign. Found a couple better last start at Sonoda over 1870m after being handy all the way. This is a nice race and she can get the job done. ZENDAN SKY (5) looks close to a win, finishing in the placings at his last couple of runs including a third most recently over 1800m at this track. Osamu Shimohara stays aboard. Best form puts him right in this. TRANSCENDENCE (7) is building towards a win with placings at his last two runs, the latest effort a third over 1700m at Sonoda. Should be poised just off the lead. Should be involved in the finish. IZA GREEN LIGHT (1) showed early speed from an outside draw last start and raced on the pace before boxing on well to finish second. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he is up to the challenge.

Form hard to fault. Last start raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 10 at this track on January 27 over 1400m, 9 len behind Bellagio Gulf carrying 58kg at $19.40. The race before that ran on from midfield and won by 1.5 len at Sonoda January 3 over 1400m defeating One Voice with 57kg at $4.80. Sure to be about the money.

The start before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 1.5 len at Sonoda December 10 over 1400m defeating Mild Prime with 55kg at $6.30. Well placed. Should prove hard to beat.

Racing well recently. Most recently eased back early on 3rd in a small field at this track on January 22 over 1800m, 7 len behind A Shin Leo carrying 58kg at $5.30. The start before that sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 10 at Sonoda on January 8 over 1400m, 5 len behind Windy Palace carrying 58kg at $8.80. One of the prime contenders in a most suitable contest.
