Kawasaki Race 4 - Race 4 - 1400
KOTORINO UTAU UTA (2) Came in 5th last start at Urawa. May see an upturn in form and has a positive alley. Displays good tactical speed. Amongst the placegetters on multiple occasions this campaign. Goes close. SNOWY SKY (3) Underperformed when 11th last start at this venue. Will be around the mark at odds. MAJOR APPEAL (7) Finished 4th last start at Urawa. Looking past the last run. Will be positive in the run early. Up to these. KITANO CHANCE (8) Good win by 3/4L last time at Mizusawa on a heavy track. Change in trainer. Running with confidence this preparation. Shows good closing speed. Knockout chance in this.

The run before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 8 at Kasamatsu on December 12 over 1400m, 6 len behind Love Fortissimo with 57kg at $1.20. Needs plenty of luck to trouble the top few.
