Kochi Race 2 - Race 2 - 1300
Thin race with limited exposed form, so RA ATUM (2) gets the nod after a 5th beaten 5.3L over this track and trip last start, which reads better than most and hints at progression third up from a better draw at 56kg. ENTRECHAT (3) is a minor threat second up after a 4th of 6 here at 1300m, beaten 7L, and can strip fitter at 55kg. O SHIN WHALE (5) appeals more than most off a debut 5th of 6 beaten 7.3L in the same 1300m race as ENTRECHAT (3), and can improve second up at 56kg. The rest have been well beaten at recent runs; marginal preference is for RA ATUM (2) to find enough improvement to edge this.

Draws the rail after coming from barrier 9 last start. Finished 9th of 11 over 1300m at Kochi on 12 Sep on heavy, beaten 15.3L at $301.00, after a 5th of 11 here over 1300m on 2 Aug on firm, beaten 9.5L at $201.00. The inside draw gives her a softer map and a chance to settle better at the same trip.

Third up and draws much better, coming from barrier 11 to 2. Ran 5th of 10 over 1300m at Kochi on 4 Oct, beaten 5.3L on heavy at $5.50, an improvement on a 6th of 6 here on 6 Sep over the same trip on soft. The kinder gate can help Yuuta Gouma find a handier spot and give Ra Atum the chance to build on that last run.

Two runs at 1300m here read 6th of 10 on 4 Oct (HEAVY, $126.00) then 7th of 8 on 18 Oct (GOOD, $29.00), the latter beaten 20.05L. Stays at the trip and keeps Masayoshi Yamasaki. Needs to lift but race experience at track and distance is a plus for this 2yo filly.

Second up after a Kochi 1300m run on 18 Oct when 5th of 6, beaten 7.3L at $4.00 on good ground. Stays at 1300m and sticks with Ryoutarou Oka for a small field of eight. With that experience under his belt, O Shin Whale can improve.

Third up for the 2yo filly and sticks to 1300m at Kochi. Improved from 5th of 5, beaten 30.5L on heavy on 4 Oct, to 5th of 8, beaten 19L on good going over this trip on 18 Oct at $51.00. Eita Inoue rides again for Shinji Beppu. Needs another step forward but the recent progression at the track and distance is a small positive.

Fourth up and sticking to 1300m at Kochi, where the last two runs were 6th of 8 on 18 Oct and 6th of 8 on 20 Sep. Those efforts came on GOOD going at this track and trip, with market quotes of $21.00 and $67.00. Masashi Ueda stays aboard for Shinichi Tanaka. Needs to find improvement to get into the finish but the consistent set-up gives another look at this distance.
