Kanazawa Race 11 - Race 11 - 1400
MANI HERO (7) is in top form, most recently recording a win by 1.5 lengths over 1500m at this track to make it two in succession. Form this track is hard to knock with seven wins from 15 starts. Right in this. GARM CAT (9) finished 12th last start over 1500m at this track after racing on the pace for much of the way. Disappointed there as his prior form had been strong. Expected to bounce back to form. KITANO DIA (6) was quickly into stride over 1400m at this track last time and defied all challengers to score by 5 lengths. Meeting a deeper field this time but she is up to the challenge. IROHANIOE (3) looks close to a win, finishing in the placings at her last couple of runs including a second most recently over 1400m at this track when beaten 1.5 lengths. Has a win and four minor placings from seven starts at this track and distance. Solid claims on best form.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run held ground to the line 2nd of 9 at this track on December 1 over 1400m, 1.5 len behind Good Luck Star carrying 55kg at $10.40. The race before that got back early 3rd in a small field at this track on November 17 over 1400m, 7 len behind Garm Cat with 55kg at $33.60. Not far off the winner latest and looks a genuine hope.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run favourite; scored a big 5 len win at this track November 25 over 1400m defeating Link Arms carrying 55kg at $2.90. The start before that sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 9 at this track on November 11 over 1400m, neck behind Bam with 55kg at $2.30. Can get the job done again.

Chasing a hat-trick. At the latest run favourite; won by 1.5 len at this track December 1 over 1500m defeating Heart Lock carrying 56kg at $1.40. The start before that favourite; won by 4 len at this track November 10 over 1400m defeating Beauty Honey with 57kg at $5.80. This is well within his grasp.
