Kasamatsu Race 3 - Race 3 - 1400
RIDGE LINE (1) maps well from barrier 1 and owns the best local profile at Kasamatsu 1400 (7:1-1), including a win here on 24 Jul over 1400m with 57kg, and was a clear 2nd here on 28 Aug over 1400m at $5. VENERABLE (4) was sent out $1.9 here on 11 Sep and held 4th over 1400m; draws barrier 4 and stays at the trip. INDY QUEEN (6) was 5th of 7 here on 11 Sep over 1400m and can strip fitter second run at the track. ASTA WIN (2) resumes locally third up and drops back 400m after a Chukyo 1800m run on 1 Aug, but has yet to feature at this trip.

Returns to barrier 1 with a solid 1400m record at Kasamatsu (7:1-1-0) and an identical record with this jockey-trainer pairing. He was a brave 2nd here over 1400m on 28 Aug (SOFT) beaten 4L at $5, but struggled last start when 8th of 8 on 11 Sep (SOFT). From the inside draw and back to a proven setup, he can bounce back if he reproduces that penultimate run.

Third-up and dropping 400m, she draws barrier 2 and sticks at 55kg. Her latest run at Chukyo over 1800m saw her midfield early before weakening to 16th, while her only 1400m try at Kyoto resulted in 12th at big odds. Inside draw and the shorter trip could help her settle handier and find improvement.

Second up and draws barrier 3 after a wide gate last time, which could aid her settling. She was 15th of 15 over 1800m at Niigata on 16 Aug, beaten 28.51L at $51 after racing near the tail, and now drops 400m to 1400m. Needs to show sharp improvement but the softer draw and trip change offer a different setup.

Back 13 days after a Kasamatsu 1400m SOFT run when 4th of 7, beaten 9.75L at $1.9 carrying 55kg from barrier 2 behind Ibarahime. Draws barrier 4 and remains at 55kg; her consistent 1200–1600m campaign suggests she can be competitive if settling more efficiently.

Third-up with a sharp distance drop of 800m after finishing 12th of 14 over 2200m at Niigata on 2 Aug, beaten 13.45L by Queen's Reign at $201. Draws barrier 5 and carries 57kg; needs to lift on recent figures but the shorter trip could help settle closer.

On a 13-day turnaround after finishing 5th of 7 at Kasamatsu over 1400m (55kg) on soft, beaten 11.25L at $29 behind Ibarahime. Starts from barrier 6 with Junki Mochizuki now riding, and her Kasamatsu 1400m experience should help as she looks to lift off that recent run.

First up after 3 months, he resumes at 1400m with 57kg and Tatsuya Watanabe from barrier 8. His last prep ended with a 16th of 16 at Hanshin over 1800m (45.33L, SP 126) after racing wide from the outside gate, and prior he was 14th of 16 at Tokyo 1600m (22.91L, SP 23) when fading late. Needs to show improvement back in trip.
