2025 Yasuda Kinen Betting Tips
Jantar Mantar is a four-year-old with solid credentials when it comes to the Yasuda Kinen. The horse was disappointing last time out, with a second-to-last finish at Sha Tin back in December. However, perhaps we’ll see a return to form considering this charge was able to score in a big field of eighteen runners at Tokyo in early May.
This came in the NHK Mile Cup, with the 19/10 chance landing a victory by two and a half lengths. The subsequent performance in the Hong Kong Mile saw the horse hampered from two furlongs out, which may have contributed to the poor result. However, some might prefer the chance of Soul Rush instead and he was second in the same race.
More recently, the Japanese horse was able to score in the Dubai Turf when obliging at odds of 14/1 over one mile and one furlong. Hot favourite Romantic Warrior was beaten by a charge trained by Yasutoshi Ikee, with that coming after a solid effort at Nakayama at the beginning of March when finishing third behind Sixpence.
The latter horse was able to win the Nakayama Kinen, with that Grade 2 success coming by a nose. Last April, we saw the charge achieve a midfield finish when finishing three lengths off the pace in the Osaka Hai. There was also a success at Tokyo back in October, with the 5/2 favourite obliging in the Mainichi Okan.
