1200m – Turf

Bi Eye 4-year-old filly has best a 5th since moving to this class. Finished near rear in last three starts. Hasn’t raced since early December. Likely outclassed.
Biografie Raced in 1000-1600 metre range. Won wire to wire last out on 21 March in Chukyo 1400m over sloppy going. Has performed well over any going. Largely raced to left but has 3 starts to right. First time at Hanshin. Worth a wager.
Buon Voyage Raced primarily at this distance moving up to this class after 2-1 over tight-turned Kokura 1200m. Good speed, but likely not to translate well to bigger Hanshin venue.
Colorature Has made board only three times in last 16 starts since last win in summer of 2019. Returning from 12th-place finish in January. Lacks speed. Outclassed.
Coofa Venus Frankel mare has 11 finishes in top three from 17 starts. Returned after 3 months to finish 8th in Kokura 1200m. Up against wall in stretch. Improvement expected. Promising with better trip.
Danon Justice Has failed to finish better than 7th in last 8 starts. Returned after 7 months to finish 13th out of 16 in Hanshin 1200m over dirt. No indication of improvement.
Derma Katrina 5-year-old American-bred mare with 7 finishes in money from 16 starts. Raced with only 1 exception over 6 furlongs. Tends to race midfield or further back, with excellent late speed. Coming off fifth at Chukyo in race that favored frontrunners. Has ample chance with bit of luck.
Fantasistella A seasoned, but inconsistent sprinter with 9 finishes in top three from 21 starts. Surprised with win over Hanshin 1200m at end of November returning from 5 1/2-month layoff. But, last two starts were double-digit performances though 13 March start was over sloppy track. Could surprise.
First Folio 4-year-old filly with 9 starts has posted 1-1-2-4-8 since going down to 6 furlongs, last three at this level. Last out on 13 March was keen and no doubt done in by sloppy track at Nakayama. Ample ability with right trip, better ground.
Good Max Raced primarily over 1200m consistently makes board and recorded 6-4 in last 2 starts, both at Nakayama. At Hanshin for first time. Could surprise with right trip.
Hush Go Go Returned after 6 months off, moved up in class and posted 13-8 over Hanshin mile. Finished third at Kokura last summer in only turf 1200m of career. Success not likely at Hanshin.
Kurino Ariel 6-year-old mare has 4 finishes in money from last 5 starts. Third last out on 28 February over Kokura 1200m. Third start since layoff. Promising.
Meisho Mimosa Has at best a second from six starts at this level. Broke awkwardly last out on 28 February, tense, hung out, raced unbalanced. Decent speed and looking calmer in trackwork.
Savoir Aimer Raced primarily in 1600-1800 metre range with little success. Being given first 1200m. Best a sixth in last 8 starts. Likely outclassed at any distance.
Septarian Not looking promising with last 4 starts ending in double-digit finishes. Chronically late at break.
Sound Kanaloa Moving up in class fresh off 21 March wire-to-wire win over heavy ground in Hanshin 1200m. Weight stable. Holding condition. Strong over softer to sloppy ground. Rain forecast for Sunday.
