Kanazawa Race 5 - Race 5 - 1400
Leaning to AENOKOTO (7), who found 2nd over 1400m here last start and holds the most recent solid finish in a race where many are well beaten. ROYAL RUN (10) appeals next after a 4th over this trip on the same day, keeping her margins far tighter than most and hinting at further improvement. FRIENDLY GRIN (6) has a 2nd at this track and trip three starts back and can rebound if reproducing that run. AURORA CRUISE (4) is a rough hope after a 4th and 5th at 1400m here earlier in the prep, with a manageable margin two back. Narrow nod to AENOKOTO (7).

The filly has struggled in two Kanazawa runs, finishing 9th of 9 over 1400m on 4 Oct at $126.00 and then 7th of 8 over 1500m on 18 Oct on soft, beaten 22.5L. Drops back to 1400m. Needs a lift but remains lightly raced and sticks to the same track with Toi Asano aboard.

Drops back to 1400m after finishing 6th of 8 over 1500m at Kanazawa on 18 Oct, beaten 15.5L at $71.00 on soft. Prior run here at 1400m on 4 Oct was 8th of 9, beaten 15.8L at $251.00 on firm. Keeping the trip to 1400m looks a logical move, with Kenshin Uozumi engaged for Atsushi Ikeda.

Two runs at 1400m here read modest, finishing 7th of 9 on 4 Oct (beaten 15.5L at $34.00) and 6th of 7 on 18 Oct on soft (beaten 14.76L at $11.00). Stays at the same track and trip with Masayoshi Aoyagi aboard again, so the set-up is familiar. Needs to lift on those efforts but remains an inexperienced filly with scope to improve.

Fourth up and sticking to 1400m at Kanazawa, she was 5th of 9 here on 6 Sep over this trip, beaten 4.8L at $126.00 after a 4th of 8 on 23 Aug when beaten 12.5L. That latest run was a clear step forward at the same course and distance. With Yuuma Shibata aboard again, she has a platform to hold her form around this setup.

Second up after a 1500m Kanazawa run on 18 Oct when 5th of 8, beaten 9.5L at $3.70 on soft ground. Draws better from barrier 5 after coming out of 8 last time, and comes back to 1400m. With Tatsuya Nakajima booked again, this set-up looks more suitable. Rikea Salsa can improve with the run under her belt.

Kanazawa 1400m has been the test so far, finishing 6th of 7 on 18 Oct (SOFT) beaten 10.75L at $17.00 after a 6th of 9 on 4 Oct (FIRM) beaten 15L at $10.00. Stays at the same trip with Hirotaka Kouga booked. Needs to lift on those efforts, but the recent run did show a smaller margin.

Improved sharply last time at Kanazawa over 1400m on 18 Oct, running 2nd of 7, beaten 4L at $151.00 on soft. That was a clear step forward from the 4 Oct effort at the same track and trip (7th of 7, beaten 20L at $126.00) on firm. Stays at 1400m with Akihiro Yoshida booked, and the recent run gives her something to build on.

Fourth up and stretching from 1000m to 1400m after finishing 7th of 8 at Monbetsu on 15 Sep, beaten 9.25L at $13.00. The longer trip could suit better than that sharp scamper. Shizuo Oki sticks for Akihiro Kawazoe. Needs to lift but the set-up is different enough to find improvement.
