■ NHK Mile Cup “Kasumaru’s Horse Racing GI Great Expectations” Serifos Long-sought GI Conquest?: J-CAST Trend

KasmaruYeah, I’m Kasumamaru. Last week’s Spring Tenno Sho, the banyan banyan won the triple with 〇 ◎ △ in the spring. Finally, I’m sorry. This week, the distance is getting shorter and it’s the NHK Mile Cup (May 8, 2022, Tokyo Racecourse, 1600m turf). A race to decide the 3-year-old mile champion. Compared to the acorn’s back, this race is worrisome every year. The favorite of the old man who wants to win for two weeks in a row is Serifos, which is expected to be the most popular. It seems that the old man can only make the most popular favorite.

Serifos with anxiety about rotation

Banyan grandfatherWhat to say, Kasumaru. As I always say, I just make the strongest horse my favorite ◎. Serifos is the strongest in this race. From the new horse race (Chukyo) to the previous race GI and Asahi Hai Futurity Stakes (Hanshin), all of them are solid with 4 races and 3 wins in the 1600m race. Moreover, Bel Cresta, who defeated in the new horse race (2nd place), finished 2nd in the subsequent Artemis Stakes (GIII, Tokyo 1600m) and 7th in the GI Oka Sho (Hanshin 1600m). In the second run, GIII, Niigata 2-year-old stakes (Niigata), climbed the 4th corner from 6th place (12 heads) and climbed 3 halon (last 600 meters) with 32 seconds 8 legs and 1 horse body 4 for 2nd arrival. You won a good victory with a one-third difference. The arrival was 4th in the GIII Keisei Stakes (Nakayama 2000m) and 2nd in the GII Spring Stakes (Nakayama 1800m). Even in his third race, the Daily Hai Nisai Stakes (Hanshin), the fastest rise of the members was 33 seconds and 4 seconds, so it can be said that the content of the race for the third straight victory is strong. The Asahi Hai Futurist FS in the previous race lost in a straight line compared to the winner Do Deuce, but he has secured the second place properly. You showed the certainty of the leg and the high ability of it. His father, Daiwa Major, won the 2004 Satsuki Sho (GI, Nakayama 2000m), the 2006 Tenno Sho Autumn (Tokyo 2000m) and the Mile Championship (Kyoto 1600m) GI for the second time in a row. The following year, in 2007, he won the Yasuda Kinen (Tokyo 1600m) and the Mile CS Mile GI in a row, and he won 5 GIs with his speed as a weapon. There are many horses with a precocious pedigree and a high degree of perfection. I’m worried that there will be a race interval from the previous race, but I’m sure that I’m training well and I’m ready to start.

KasmaruHmmm, but it’s not so strong. Kasyo’s favorite ◎ aiming for a hole is the Alluring Way.

KasyoUnlike the grandfather, he is an ambush. But this is the one to win. Two-year-old new horse, second run Manryo Award (Hanshin 1400m), third run Elfin Stakes (Listed, Chukyo 1600m) and the strength is that it seems to be able to respond even if it becomes a speed game from the battle record. Although there is a disadvantage in the previous Oka Sho (GI, Hanshin 1600m), there is no difference from the winning horse to 8th place, 0.2 seconds behind, and it is not as big as the result. In the battle from the Oka Sho, the major emblem Aerolithe won, and in the last two years, he has achieved good results with 2nd place in Resistencia and 2nd place in the songline. There seems to be no problem with counterclockwise rotation because there is an Elfin S win on the Chukyo course, and since it was a strong way of winning, turning counterclockwise is a plus.

KasmaruHmm. It may be a strength to win in the same counterclockwise direction as the actual performance. The old man’s opposition is the all-ring way. Kasyo is a pull parley.

Kasyothat’s right. I’m an ambush again. Pull Palais was late in the crocus stakes two runs before, so I couldn’t race before that, but I went up and pushed 3 halon with the last leg of 32.05 to finish 2nd. The Falcon Stakes (GIII, Chukyo 1400m) in the previous race also chased the middle team while being late, and while the straight line was a riding ground where it was going up, the range of horse racing expanded with 3 halon going up in 35 seconds 9 and winning. Is a good material. Counterclockwise is a perfect match with 4 races, 2 wins, 2 finishes and 2 times. If you are late only for GI, it will be difficult to win, but the last leg that will surely drive you is attractive enough.

KasmaruLast week it was settled in the top ranks, but this year’s GI is a big success for the ambush. I’m looking forward to seeing what’s going on this week as well.
