Kochi Race 1 - Race 1 - 1300
RANGIROA (2) progressed nicely last start to finish a close second over 1400m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. HAKUNO SEVEN (8) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 4 lengths into fifth. Likely improver with strong prospects. PEACE NAIL (5) is on a quick turnaround after a solid third over 1400m at this track six days ago. Strong run last time and has solid top-three prospects. MEIJO ENERGY (7) turned in another moderate effort last start when 13 lengths from the winner in eighth over 1600m at this track. Finds a nice race and can make amends.

Most recently sat on the speed throughout before fading second last of 8 at this track on January 25 over 1400m, 6 len behind Ville Avancer with 55kg at $7.50. Before that held ground to the line 3rd of 8 at this track on January 12 over 1300m, 9 len behind Cosmo Lapa Uila with 57kg at $59.20. Won't spend a penny in the run from the inside barrier. Good each-way hope.
