Kochi Race 1 - Race 1 - 1300
LOWEN HEARTS (2) looks the one with two convincing 1300m wins at Kochi, including last start by 1.5L, and a perfect record at the trip and track. HARUGA KITA (9) is a strong danger after back‑to‑back 1300m wins here, the latest by 2.5L, and has proven from a wide alley. SUN CALENDULA (4) rates highly off a dominant 9L debut win at this track and distance, though this is a deeper field. FLOWER HOPE S (10) keeps knocking on the door with three straight seconds at 1300m and sets up to run well again, but preference is for LOWEN HEARTS (2) on exposed 1300m form.

Placed in 2 of last 3 and already a 1300m winner at Kochi, Bear Magnum brings solid local credentials. Last start he ran 2nd of 12 at Kochi over 1400 on 25 Oct, beaten 3L at $101.00 on heavy ground, and now comes back to 1300. He’s 1 win and 1 second from three starts at this track, and has similar returns from inside barriers 1-3. Profiles to give another honest account at this trip and venue.

Fourth up and thriving, having won 2 of last 3 including back-to-back 1300m Kochi wins on 18 Oct and 31 Oct at $9.50 and $8.00. Both victories were decisive (4L and 1.5L), reinforcing a strong (3:2-0-0) record at this track and trip. Draws better from barrier 2 after jumping from 7 last time, which should aid the set-up. Lowen Hearts brings the right profile to hold form over this course and distance.

Placed in 4 of last 5 and owns a solid this season record (5:1-2-1). Last start at Monbetsu over 1700m on 28 Oct was 9th of 10, beaten 20.8L at $11.00 on soft. Draws better from barrier 3 after jumping from 8 last time. With consistent recent form and a more favourable gate, Makayense can bounce back.

Second up and returns to the same 1300m at Kochi after a dominant 1 Nov win, scoring by 9L on soft at $1.70. That romp suggests she handled the trip and venue comfortably. With Eita Inoue aboard again, Sun Calendula looks well placed to hold form.

Back to 1300m at Kochi where she’s had two runs, most recently 5th of 7 on 31 Oct on soft, beaten 5.9L at $51.00. Prior effort here on 4 Oct over 1300m was 9th of 10 on heavy, beaten 9.6L at $51.00. Stays to a familiar trip and track, and any improvement would see her competitive.
