Comments

Ran well above her market price when second to Narino Dream at Kawasaki two starts back, beaten a length and a half after knuckling down late. The concern is the sharp drop-off last start, where she faded late and finished tenth behind Horse Spirit, beaten over 16 lengths at long odds. She has won at this distance, but needs to rediscover that previous effort to be a genuine place factor.

Expected Settling Position: Off Midfield

Comments

Returns from a five-week freshening after a solid fifth over 1600m at Funabashi, beaten two and a half lengths by Final Wonder after settling handy near the top of betting. She was runner-up at Urawa the start prior as favourite, working home evenly behind Ichigo Whip. The lack of a win at this distance is the query, but her recent form is reliable enough to make her a major player.

Comments

Improved into third behind Velos at Kawasaki last start, beaten eight lengths after finishing off past tired runners at long odds. That was a clear lift on her previous seventh behind My Bridge, where she was beaten over 12 lengths and never a winning hope. She remains winless from 48 starts, so the winning case is limited, but 52kg and a recent placing keep her in the mix.

Comments

Was safely held over 1200m at Funabashi last start, settling rearward and making no late impression when tenth behind End Stage, beaten over 10 lengths at long odds. Her Urawa run prior was also only fair, seventh behind Rebat and never a factor. The class drop and light weight help on paper, but recent form says she has a fair bit to find.

Comments

Returns from a one-month freshening with recent form that needs forgiving, having finished seventh over 1000m at Funabashi when unwanted in the market and unable to make ground. She was second last at Urawa the run prior, beaten over 11 lengths after giving away a big start. The class drop is some help, but the rise in trip is a genuine query and she needs much more purpose late.

Returns from a four-month break after finishing seventh in 3yo+ C2 grade at Urawa, beaten over 10 lengths by Coolidge Tesoro at big odds. Her previous run was also well held when second last behind Appraiser, and she has since been beaten by key rivals Kitasan Ribbon and Mauritius Aroma. A minor track-and-distance placing record is noted, but the broader profile demands improvement.

Finished a distant eighth behind B B Radon at Funabashi last start, beaten over 14 lengths after settling rearward at long odds. The run prior was better, closing off for fourth behind Another Moon when beaten just under three lengths, but that remains the exception in a modest profile. Still winless from 25 starts, he needs to reproduce his best recent closing effort to get involved.

Comments

Has finished fifth at both recent runs but was beaten over 12 lengths by B B Radon at Funabashi last start after being unwanted in the market. She had earlier beaten Chiara Bonheur at Kawasaki, yet that race still saw her finish nine lengths from My Bridge. Her past record with Ryo Kosugi is a positive, but current margins leave her with plenty to turn around.

Returns from a four-month break as the standout Urawa specialist, with four wins and one placing from five starts at this track and distance. She was beaten just under three lengths when fourth behind Coolidge Tesoro in 3yo+ C2 grade last time, despite starting odds-on, but had won here by four lengths over Twilight Dress the run prior. With Tsubasa Sasagawa back on, she sets the standard.

Comments

Returns from a two-month freshening after a disappointing last in 3yo+ C2C3 grade at Urawa, beaten over 17 lengths as favourite behind Air Shallow. His earlier third behind Ori's Genie was far more encouraging, beaten just over two lengths after working home well. The stable change adds interest, and his past 12-month record is strong enough to keep him as a realistic place hope.

Comments

Was never in the picture at Funabashi last start, finishing tenth behind B B Radon and beaten over 16 lengths at long odds. Her previous sixth at Urawa was better but still only fair, beaten seven and a half lengths behind Rebat. She has placed with Kosei Akimoto before, yet remains winless from 22 starts and needs a much sharper finish to trouble these.

Tracked the speed but weakened out of contention when seventh behind Velos at Kawasaki last start, beaten over 12 lengths at long odds. She had been similarly plain when eighth behind My Bridge, again beaten over 12 lengths. Her career record shows three wins, but she is unplaced from 17 starts in the past 12 months and needs a marked form reversal.

Comments

Returns from a two-month freshening after working home strongly for third behind Rebat at Urawa, beaten five and a half lengths after having plenty to do. The start prior was poor, finishing tenth behind Arcelia and beaten over 10 lengths, so she is not bulletproof. Her track-and-distance record is solid, with one win and five places from 14 starts, which keeps her firmly in the place discussion.
