Comments

Led at Mizusawa last start but was claimed soon after and dropped right out, finishing last and well beaten by 21 lengths when near the top of an open market. That is hard to overlook, though the run prior was a sharper 1400m win at Mizusawa where he finished strongly to beat Juno Vert by a neck at long odds. Has won around 1600m, but his track-and-trip record leaves him as more of a place prospect than a solid win play.

Comments

Returns from a six-week freshening after working home over the top to win a 3yo+ C2 over 1400m at this track by a length and a half. She had earlier run third as odds-on favourite after giving away too much start, so the closing pattern is consistent. The mile is new, but three wins at this venue and a strong record with Eito Sakai make her a serious winning chance.

Comments

Has been well held in two runs this campaign, finishing seventh at Mizusawa last start when beaten over 12 lengths at long odds after conceding a huge start. The start prior was no better, running ninth and beaten over 16 lengths while unwanted in the market. Class relief and race fitness help only so much when the recent figures leave him with a sizeable gap to close.

Comments

Returns from a three-month break with a very honest profile, having been placed in six of seven starts overall. He was last seen running second at this track, beaten just under a length by Itazura Vega after picking up strongly, and had also been third at Mizusawa behind Sasuke Bella. He has three placings from four tries around 1600m, so he profiles as a sound top-three hope fresh.

Comments

Worked home from an impossible spot when seventh over 1900m at Mizusawa last start, but she was still beaten over 12 lengths and started at long odds. Two back at this track she was never competitive and was beaten out of sight over 2000m. Her 1600m record is much better than those recent results, but she must recover plenty of form to trouble the main chances.

Comments

Was beaten just over nine lengths when fifth at Mizusawa last start after settling rearward, a plain result given he was near the top of an open market. The previous run was far stronger, winning a 3yo+ C1 at this track over 1400m by a length and a half as a very short odds-on chance. His venue record is excellent, but the thin 1600m return makes him a place rather than win lean.

Comments

Held on by a neck at Mizusawa last start in 3yo+ B2 grade, justifying a very short odds-on quote and beating Diving Head. That followed a fading seventh at this track in 3yo+ C1 company, so the latest run was a timely return to winning form. She is a track-and-trip winner and two from two with Shinobu Murakami, which keeps her right in the winning discussion despite this being a stronger test.

Comments

Battled away when seventh at Mizusawa last start, beaten just under six lengths at long odds after sitting just off the pace. The run prior at this track was a distant fourth, beaten over 11 lengths, so her recent form still lacks a strong winning push. Career and 12-month records are respectable, but she looks reliant on a better finishing effort to land a minor cheque.

Comments

Comes in as the one to beat after scoring at Mizusawa three weeks ago, digging in as a well-supported favourite to beat Triple Barrel by a head over 1400m. She was also narrowly beaten by Daisen Rouge at this track the run prior, and her record at this venue is excellent. With 1600m form already on the board and Toshiki Yamamoto having won four times on her, she sets the standard.

Comments

Finished seventh at Mizusawa last start, beaten over 13 lengths by Tovarisch after having the job ahead and failing to make ground. He had produced a better effort two back when winning a 3yo+ C1 at this track from Over The Top, but consistency has been hard to pin down at this stage. A proven 1600m record is respected, though others arrive with stronger current form.

Comments

Worked home evenly for second over 1900m at Mizusawa last start, beaten four lengths at big odds by Hakushin Malpensa. That was an improvement on his eighth at this track over 1400m, where he was beaten over 11 lengths and only fair through the line. He has a win and a placing from four tries at this track and distance, but the recent form still reads more minor money than winning case.

Comments

Went very close at Mizusawa last start, finishing third and beaten only a neck by Tovarisch after picking up well at big odds. His previous sixth was less convincing, but he still made late ground from well back. The key support is his proven record at this track and distance, with two wins and two placings from eight attempts, making him one of the stronger winning chances.
