Kyoto Race 4 - Mdn Race
DRAGON D'OR (11) rates on top after a solid 2nd over 1600m at Niigata, holding form at the trip and bringing the most reliable recent finish. GLACIARES INC (6) is a strong threat off a debut 3rd at this distance, beaten just 0.31L and suited staying at a mile. HONEYBELL (2) has claims after a 3rd over this Kyoto 1600m on debut, proven at track and trip. IDEA (10) can fill a spot off a 4th here at 1600m, though the 5.75L margin leaves a little to bridge; narrow lean to DRAGON D'OR (11).

Third up and draws the rail after coming from barrier 10 last start. Latest run was 10th of 12 over 1600m at Niigata on 17 Oct, beaten 6.2L at $5.00. The inside draw with Yutaka Take aboard could help secure a cleaner trip around Kyoto’s mile. Settles into this set-up with scope to improve from the better gate.

First up after about four months, and draws better from barrier 4 after jumping from 11 last time. At her latest run on 11 Jul at Kokura over 1800m she finished 8th of 12, beaten 6.5L at $22.00 on good ground. Back to 1600m with Fuma Matsuwaka booked, the softer map from the draw can help her settle into the prep.
