Kochi Race 5 - Race 5 - 1600

BLACK SOUTHER (6) rallied in the concluding stages to score by 1.5 lengths last start over 1300m at this track at the second run back from a spell. Big chance to keep the fine form going. COPANO JAMES (2) is in winning form after scoring as favourite last time out by 2.5 lengths over 1400m at this track. Boasts four wins here. Kondo Shogetsu who has three wins when partnering stays on. Key runner. NIFE DEBIRU (4) improved last start but found one better over 1400m at this track, beaten 2 lengths. Meets a stronger field but he is up to the task. MEISHO BELL (3) finished third last time over 1300m here. Must raise the bar but she has the talent to test this line-up.

The run before that tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 9 at this track on January 20 over 1400m, 10 len behind Altstadt with 57kg at $3.70. Big chance again.
