Himeji Race 12 - Race 12 - 1400

MEISHO KAIKON (3) did a great job to score by 3.5 lengths over this course and distance last start in a much improved run. Meets a stronger field but he is good enough to cope. MERRY SENSE (11) went fast early over 1400m at this track when resuming last time and defied all challengers to score by 1.5 lengths. Has to overcome a tricky draw. Goes up a rung or two but he is worth serious consideration. KING SPICA (10) has been in the money at his last couple of runs, the latest when second over 1400m at this track. Sound record at this distance with two wins and six minor placings from 12 runs and shapes as a key runner. CHERRY RUSSIAN (5) knuckled down strongly to get within 0.8 lengths of the winner in second last start over 1400m at this track when resuming after a break. Among the main hopes.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run 2nd of 8 at this track on January 28 over 1400m, 0.8 len behind M T Estate with 57kg at $8.80. The start before that 2nd of 12 at Sonoda on January 8 over 1400m, 9 len behind Bellagio Gulf carrying 57kg at $7.10. Strong effort last time and looks a leading hope.
