Kyoto Race 6 - Kyoto 6r
Hard to split the debutants, but STANISLAS (8) appeals most on pedigree for 1800m, being by Kitasan Black out of Japan Cup Dirt winner Marche Lorraine. SHONAN BARAMON (4) looks a key threat with Saturnalia’s stamina influence likely to suit the trip. YOKOHAMA BLUES (11) has a quality US sire profile that can inject class at this journey, while CHAMPION RING (10) brings the only exposed form with 2nd and 3rd at 1800m, though the long gap since that preparation is a query. Leaning STANISLAS (8) in a cautious maiden.

First up after a long break, and he has placed in 3 of last 5. Best guide is a 2nd of 11 over 1800m at Niigata on 13 Sep 2014, beaten 2.5L in 1:55.1. The 1800m suits on exposed form (3:0-1-1). With Hideaki Miyuki booked, Champion Ring has some historical credentials to be competitive at the trip.
