Kochi Race 2 - Race 2 - 1300
BELLAGIO IZANA (5) looks the one with upside after a 2L win over this trip at Kochi on debut, and the 55kg suits again. SPICE TOWN (2) is a rock-solid chance with three straight 2nds at 1300m here, including a close 0.75L defeat on heavy, and maps to get every chance from an inside draw. ROYAL QUARK (3) has the right 1300m profile at this track (1-2-2 from five) and draws better than in recent 1400m defeats, so can rebound back in trip. HARUGA KITA (6) warrants respect off a 0.75L 1300m win at Kochi two starts back and recent placings, but the prior big defeat tempers confidence; leaning to BELLAGIO IZANA (5) to progress again.

Stays at 1300m after a sound 5th of 10 here on 4 Oct, beaten 2.6L on heavy at $9.50. Followed that with a tougher 4th of 6 at Kochi on 17 Oct over the same trip on firm, beaten 10.5L at $22.00. With Taichi Nagamori up again, Black Patrol has already handled this track and distance and can be around the mark in a small field.

Two runs at 1300m here read 7th of 10, beaten 6.6L at $2.50 on 4 Oct (HEAVY), then 5th of 6, beaten 14.5L at $11.00 on 17 Oct (FIRM). Stays at the trip with Shouma Katou up and small field suits a cleaner run. Needs to lift on those efforts, but the prior run on testing ground was the better of the two. Measured prospects in a six-runner race.

Second up and returns to the same 1300m after a strong Kochi win on 18 Oct, scoring by 2L at $1.55. The race set-up mirrors that success and she sticks with Minoru Miyagawa for Yuuji Uchikoshi. Well placed to hold form in this small field.
