Comments

Has been safely held at his past two, finishing seventh at this track last start when unwanted in the market and beaten just over nine lengths behind Specialight. The start prior was no better, a fifth in C1B3 company when beaten over 12 lengths after settling rearward. He has won around 1580m, but recent form leaves him with a major task against sharper rivals.

Expected Settling Position: Off Midfield

Comments

Was disappointing last start in B4 grade at this track, finishing last after giving away a big start and never coming into the race despite being near the top of betting. Her previous fourth over 1400m was much sounder, beaten two lengths when poised to strike. Proven at this track and distance, so she can bounce back into the placings if the latest run is left behind.

Comments

Has been fading out after racing prominently, most recently seventh in A4B2 company at this track when swamped late and beaten just over nine lengths at big odds. She was also sixth in B4 grade the start prior after settling handy and weakening. The class drop and strong record with Junki Mochizuki give her a place chance, but she must finish off better.

Comments

Returns from a lengthy spell after ending her last campaign with a heavy defeat at this track, finishing last in A2 company and beaten over 19 lengths by Onimaru. Her broader profile is much better than that, with ten wins overall and a strong record with Tsutsui Yusuke aboard. Five wins around 1580m keep her in the place discussion, but fitness has to be taken on trust.

Comments

Continued his consistent run with a third at this track last start, beaten a length and a half after working home well, though he did start favourite. Two back he was again third in B5 company, albeit beaten ten lengths after settling rearward. His record with Tatsuya Watanabe is a genuine asset and he profiles as a reliable place contender rather than a standout winner.

Comments

Made up good ground when sixth in B1 company at this track last start, beaten four and a half lengths after being well found in betting. The run prior was a controlled B7 win here, beating Chuwa Jordan by half a length after very strong market support. Two wins from three at this track and distance and a strong season record give her genuine winning claims third-up.

Comments

Lifted sharply last start at this track, finishing third in COND grade and beaten only a long neck after picking up well. That was a clear step forward from his previous B5 fourth, when beaten over 12 lengths at big odds. He has placed six times in the past 12 months without winning, so the latest run puts him in the exotics more than it marks him as a clear top pick.

Expected Settling Position: Off Pace

Comments

Narrowly missed as favourite in B4 grade at this track last start, finishing second and beaten a neck by Yuino Otoshiana after being pipped late. Her B1 fifth the start prior had merit too, as she looked out of play before finishing strongly. With a win and two placings from four starts around 1580m, she brings the most persuasive recent form and looks the right horse to beat.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield

Comments

Has been well beaten at both recent runs, finishing last at this track most recently when beaten just under ten lengths by Specialight after coming under pressure late. The start prior was another plain effort in B1 grade, second last and beaten over 14 lengths behind Cosmo Memorable. Her track-and-distance record offers some grounding, but current form is well short of what is required.

Expected Settling Position: Leader
