Kanazawa Race 1 - Race 1 - 1400
Limited exposed form, but MINUIT (5) appeals dropping 500m after a midfield finish at Chukyo over 1900m and draws better from barrier 5. DROIT (7) can progress second up off a closing 7th at Niigata over 1800m and rises to 57kg. Inside draw gives RULE OVER (1) a soft run fourth up, and the drop from 1800m may help despite poor margins. ROCK FLOUR (2) also cuts back sharply in trip and improves from a wide gate last start to barrier 2.

Draws the inside after a Tokyo City Keiba 1800m run 24 days ago when 11th of 13, beaten 13.26L behind Success Gold at $17. Drops 400m and rises to 57kg, with Taiga Kurihara taking over, which may help him settle closer from barrier 1. Needs to lift on exposed figures but the gate gives him every chance to find a rhythm.

Third-up and draws barrier 2 after jumping from 13 last time, which should afford a handier run. She was 14th of 16 over 2000m at Sapporo on 30 Aug (55kg, SP 41) beaten 5.42L by Derma Fuji, having previously finished 9th over 1500m there. With a 600m drop back to 1400m, she gets a more suitable setup to show improvement.

Drops back 400m after two midfield-to-back runs over 1700–1800m, most recently 9th of 15 at Niigata over 1800m on 25 Jul (55kg, SP 41) beaten 16L by Gold Believe. Earlier showed some dash when 6th of 15 over 1200m at Niigata (STANDARD) on 17 May, beaten 4.61L at triple figures. A kinder draw (barrier 3) could help her find a handier spot at this trip.

Returns from a 35-day break after finishing 17th of 17 over 1200m at Chukyo (SP 51) when never a factor, and now draws barrier 4 with Hirotaka Kouga taking over. Earlier in the prep she was 6th at Fukushima over 1200m, beaten 3.66L after racing handy, and has also handled 1600m. With a better gate than last start and a slight distance rise of 200m, she can settle closer and look to improve.

Drops 500m in trip and draws better (barrier 5 after 14) with Masayoshi Aoyagi taking over, following a 10th of 15 over 1900m at Chukyo on 23 Aug when beaten 10.26L at $101. Carries 57kg today after 55kg there, and his prior runs at 1700m and 1800m also read safely held, so the sharper setup needs to spark improvement.

Fourth-up with a sharp 3kg drop to 52kg and a slight step back in trip (1500m to 1400m) after finishing 6th of 8 at Kanazawa over 1500m on heavy, beaten 37.5L at $41. Prior runs were well beaten at Niigata 1200m and Tokyo 1600m at big odds, but she draws barrier 6 again and gets Toi Asano aboard. Needs to lift, though the lighter weight and distance tweak offer some scope for improvement.

Second-up after a 34-day break and drops 400m in trip, with 2kg more to carry at 57kg. Last start at Niigata over 1800m he settled last and worked home to 7th of 12, 18L from Crimson Leaf at $126. Needs the sharper mile to help his pattern, but the rise in weight asks a question.

On a short turnaround after finishing 7th of 8 at Kanazawa on 15 Sep over 1500m (HEAVY), beaten 44.5L at $151 behind Coeur Et Sakurako. Prior run was 7th of 7 here over 1400m (HEAVY), 26.5L off La Luz at $91, and his best recent effort was 6th of 9 here over 1500m on firm going, 16L from Marumo Silber. Needs a lift back to 1400m from barrier 8 with 57kg, but any improvement on firmer ground would help.
