Kochi Race 7 - Race 7 - 1300
MEISHO SHIROGANE (6) had been in top form, scoring three consecutive wins before being sent out favourite last time and finishing fourth over 1400m at this track. Record here is impressive and can bounce straight back. MEISHO YONKU (3) ran well below his best last time over 1400m here when fifth at $4.70. Hideya Sahara is back on and has a solid record on the four-year-old, including six wins. Well placed and should be in the finish. GRAY STORM (7) was a gutsy winner two back then ran sixth over 1600m at this track on February 3. One of the leading hopes on best. BEST DECISION (9) was well in commission last time but ran below expectations when tenth over 1400m at this track. Solid claims on best form.

At the latest run 9th of 11 at this track on February 18 over 1400m, 8 len behind Morpheus carrying 57kg at $71.90. The start before that got back early 3rd in a small field at this track on February 3 over 1600m, 5.5 len behind Bystol with 57kg at $6.70. Not doing enough to threaten the top few today.

Racing well recently. Most recently 4th of 11 at this track on February 18 over 1400m, 1.4 len behind Morpheus with 56kg at $2.10. The race before that favourite; raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by 2.5 len at this track January 27 over 1400m defeating Iede Gorogoro with 55kg at $1.90. Has the right credentials.
