Kyoto Race 1 - Mdn Race
BALTIC AMBER (3) maps well from barrier 3 dropping 400m after a debut 3rd at Kyoto over 1800m 13 days ago at 56kg, and should be suited back to 1400m. REAL KHAN (7) ran 5th at Kyoto 1400m 12 days ago, closing from back in the field, and holds that form second-up. VERVIERS (2) resumes third-up prep after an 82-day break; his July Kokura 1700m 4th on a sloppy track shows some ability and he draws barrier 2. DAIYU EZOFUJI (1) is third-up and improved to 5th at Kyoto 1400m last start; draws the rail and gets to 56kg.

Third-up and drawn the rail, he comes off a 5th of 15 at Kyoto over 1400m on 3 Oct, running on from well back and beaten 9L at $126. He rises 3kg to 56kg but stays at 1400m, and the inside barrier can help him settle closer.

Third-up after an 82-day freshen, he draws barrier 2 and gets Mirco Demuro, with 56kg. Last start at Chukyo he raced handy before fading to 6th of 9 over 1400m, 3.8L off Sant'Angelo at $41, following a solid 4th at Kokura over 1700m on a sloppy track. Better draw and slight weight rise give him a chance to hold a closer position and improve.

Second-up after a debut 3rd at Kyoto over 1800m (SP 5.5) when racing handy from barrier 12 and sticking on, albeit beaten 20.3L by Dera Sugoigan. Drops 400m and draws a much kinder gate 3, which should allow a more economical run under Atsuya Nishimura. With that experience and setup, he can progress.

Third-up on a short turnaround after finishing 7th at Kyoto over 1800m on 10 Oct (SP 81) when beaten 11.75L by Leviathan, having sat handy before weakening. Drops 400m in trip with 55kg from barrier 4, which is 1 gate better than last start; needs to lift but the setup is a little more forgiving.

Second-up after a debut at Sapporo over 1700m where he faded to 14th of 14, beaten 27.9L at $126, having led early before dropping out. Drops 300m to 1400m and carries 56kg from barrier 5 with Yoshihiro Furukawa up, which could help him settle better. Needs to improve but the shorter trip offers a more suitable setup at this stage of his preparation.

First up after 2 months, the colt resumes from barrier 6 with 56kg. On debut at Kokura over 1800m he finished 8th of 8, beaten 9.02L at $26, and he now drops 400m which may suit a more tactical ride. Needs to show improvement but the set-up is different this time.

Second-up after a solid debut at Kyoto 1400m, where he ran on from 12th mid-race to finish 5th of 16, 5.8L behind Miho Maru at $34 carrying 56kg. Draws barrier 7 after jumping from 3 last time and stays at 56kg; with just 12 days between runs, this short turnaround could help him build on that closing effort.

Fourth-up and up 4kg to 56kg, he returns to 1400m after two 1600m runs. Last start at Hanshin over 1400m he settled back and finished 9th of 11, beaten 16.06L at SP 126. Needs to lift on exposed form but the slight barrier improvement to 8 offers a tidier map.

Fourth-up and coming off a Hanshin 1400m run 20 days ago where he settled midfield and boxed on for 4th of 11, beaten 11.25L at $20 behind Sky Meteor. Steps up to 56kg and draws barrier 9 after wider last time; recent 1200m efforts were midfield without threatening, so a repeat of his latest temperate closing effort would see him competitive for minor money.
