Kochi Race 1 - Race 1 - 1600
MACHAON D'OR (8) lines up for the first time since June 8. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1400m at this track. Key runner. FUKUNO SPINE (7) returns after ten months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a sixth over 1400m at Tokyo Dirt. Rates highly and is a strong chance to break through. ENFANT TERRIBLE (2) was prominent into the straight last time but was overwhelmed late and wound up in seventh over 1400m at this track. Cannot be ruled out in this suitable assignment. KAZEYOBI (1) is finding the breakthrough elusive, finishing 12th at her latest appearance over 1300m at this track. Well placed and can atone.

Lining up for just third start. At debut, 4th of 12 at Ohi on December 29 over 1200m, 10 len behind Station with 55kg at $17.10. Second-up sat on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 12 at Ohi on January 12 over 1200m, 10 len behind Ivy Blizzard with 56kg at $9.20. Win would surprise.
