Kyoto Race 1 - Mdn Race
MARU MORI MY BEST (5) rates on top with consistent 1400m form, twice runner‑up at the trip and a last‑start 3rd over 1200m suggesting it’s holding condition. AERO CRYSTA (9) is a danger back to 1400m after two 3rds this prep, despite a below‑par run here last time. JASCO HILARIOUS (13) has claims off a 4th at this track and trip and can build third up. THREE OF SPADES (1) is a minor hope second up from the inside after a midfield effort over this course and distance. Lean MARU MORI MY BEST (5) in a thin maiden.

Last start here on 17 Oct he was 5th of 10 over 1400m on STANDARD, beaten 13.51L at $19.00, having previously finished 5th of 15 over the same course on 3 Oct, beaten 9L at $126.00. The market respect tightened between those runs and he stays with Hideaki Miyuki. Needs to bridge the margin but race experience at the track is a plus.

Katsuma Sameshima sticks, and the stable can build on that conditioning run. A quieter map and the distance shift give Valdanse a chance to improve.
