Tokyo City Keiba Race 4 - Race 4 - 1200
RHEIN HOPE (4) sets the standard after a decisive 1.75L win at this track and trip and looks the one they have to get past with matching figures in both local runs. ACTUEL (7) is a danger off a sharp 2L 1200m success here and can hold form at the distance. MUSASHI PENNY (5) appeals as an improver, rebounding to score by 1.75L over 1200m here last start and staying at the trip. DAIWA CURREN CITY (2) has upside second up after winning her only start over 1200m at this track on heavy, though the quick time from the recent local winners tips the verdict to RHEIN HOPE (4).

Draws the inside after jumping from gate 8 last time, which should suit given a handy record from barriers 1-3 (3:0-1-1). At this track he’s been consistent enough (5:0-2-1), and the switch back from 1600m to 1200m looks a better set-up. Latest run was 5th of 9 at Tokyo City Keiba over 1600m on 9 Oct, beaten 13L at $101.00. Orange Lucifer has the map and course stats to be competitive in this line-up.

Second up and coming off a 1200m win at Tokyo City Keiba on 12 Aug on HEAVY at $8.50. Draws better from barrier 2 after barrier 7 last start, which should aid positioning. Stays at 1200m on GOOD with Haruku Sano riding for Yasumasa Kurita. Recent win and the improved gate make Daiwa Curren City a logical hope.

Third up and draws much better, shifting from barrier 10 to 3, which should help. Latest run was 10th of 14 at Monbetsu over 1200m on 19 Aug, beaten 11.95L at $151.00. With the kinder gate and added race fitness, La Mantovana has scope to be more competitive at 1200m.

Third up and comes off a dominant 1st of 10 over 1200m at Tokyo City Keiba on 8 Oct, scoring by 1.75L at $1.18. That win was on FIRM and he now sees GOOD at Oi, but the trip matches and the set-up is similar. Genki Fujimoto sticks for Hiroshi Takami. Rhein Hope brings winning momentum and the profile to hold his form at this distance.

Third up and comes off a decisive 1st of 10 over 1200m at Tokyo City Keiba on 6 Oct, winning by 1.75L at $3.00 in 75.90. Stays at 1200m and strikes GOOD ground at Oi after scoring on FIRM, which reads well for a similar setup. Draws on experience with Ryou Nobata booked for Yasumasa Kurita again. Musashi Penny brings the right platform to be competitive here.

Won 2 of last 3 and brings a solid strike-rate into this 1200m. Latest run at Monbetsu over 1200m on 6 Aug saw her finish 7th of 9, beaten 8L at $51.00 on FIRM. Back to Oi with Ryou Fujita booked, this sets up more favourably on a GOOD track. Airosa has the recent wins to be competitive if reproducing her better efforts.

Second up after scoring at Tokyo City Keiba over 1200m on 9 Oct, winning by 2L at $2.50. That run over this trip reads well and the set-up remains similar at 1200m. Masashige Honda sticks, which suits continuity. Solid claims to hold form for Actuel.

Beat 10.55L when 8th of 10 over 1200m at Tokyo City Keiba on 8 Oct at $61.00, with the FIRM going. Stays at 1200m and shifts to Oi, which may help. Carries the booking of Kousuke Sakurai for Takatoshi Takaiwa. Needs to lift but the change of venue gives Rovaniemi a different look at the trip.

Tokyo City Keiba 1200m on 9 Oct reads plain, finishing 6th of 8 and beaten 10.5L at $126.00 on firm ground. Steps to 1200m at Oi on good going with Shou Yoshii aboard for Tomohiro Arai. Needs to find improvement but the set-up is different enough to offer a chance to progress.
