Comments

Worked home evenly when ninth at Kawasaki last start, beaten eight lengths by Narino Dream after starting at big odds. The run prior was more competitive, finishing fifth behind Siena Titicaca and beaten just under three lengths, though she still failed to threaten. A track-and-trip win sits in the background, but her recent 12-month record leaves her needing a clear lift.

Comments

Returns from a three-month break after closing the last campaign with a second at Kawasaki, beaten four lengths by Queen's Kayanohime after settling rearward and being respected in an open market. That was a better effort than her previous seventh on good ground, where she was safely held at long odds. Still a maiden after 17 starts, but the inside draw and distance placings keep her among the main hopes.

Comments

Settled handy but offered little when tenth at Kawasaki last start, beaten over 16 lengths by My Bridge at long odds. Two back she made some ground for fifth behind Uptown Girl, though still beaten six and a half lengths. The past track-and-trip win and class drop give some context, but her current form has too many holes to recommend strongly.

Comments

Finished last over 900m at Kawasaki last start, beaten seven lengths by Tanoshisa after settling rearward and conceding too much start. Her previous run was also plain when second last behind Siena Titicaca, beaten over 11 lengths at long odds. The return to 1400m and light weight suit better, but recent performances make her hard to promote beyond a rough place scenario.

Comments

Was second last at Kawasaki most recently, beaten over 20 lengths by My Bridge after settling a long way back and failing to improve. That followed a seventh behind Siena Titicaca when sent out favourite, so the market had expected better than she delivered. Her overall place record is respectable and the class drop helps, but she looks more a minor-money hope than a win play.

Comments

Returns from a two-month break after finishing eighth at Kawasaki, beaten over 10 lengths by Uptown Girl, though she did work home fairly from a hopeless position. Her Urawa run before that was no better than sixth over 2000m when favourite and unable to quicken. A past Kawasaki 1400m win is relevant, but current form still asks for improvement.

Strode away to win by four lengths at Kawasaki last start, beating Pure Lien after travelling like the winner, and the market had her as a well-supported favourite. That also gave her the recent head-to-head edge over Blue Radical. Her previous sixth was a major failure, but she is now third-up, proven at the track and trip, and has the right on-pace pattern to take beating again.

Comments

Returns from a five-month break after a narrow Urawa second, beaten a neck by Mush Bright after being run down late while prominent in betting. Her earlier Kawasaki run was weaker, fading out after leading and finishing seventh behind Uptown Girl. The strong career strike-rate and light weight are positives, but she needs to bring the Urawa version first-up.

Expected Settling Position: Leader

Comments

Returns from a three-month break after finishing eighth at Kawasaki, beaten over 11 lengths by Riko Stechkina when giving away a huge start. The run prior was another rearward effort, ninth behind the same winner and unwanted in the market. With no wins from 14 starts and little recent impact, she needs a much sharper race shape and finish.

Comments

Settled well back and never looked likely when ninth at Kawasaki last start, beaten over 13 lengths by Velos after being unwanted in the market. Two back he was sixth behind Schweigen, again from a rearward position. His Kawasaki 1400m record is the saving grace, but he must settle closer or produce a far stronger finish to be a factor.

Comments

Placed first-up at Kawasaki when third behind Gomez, beaten six lengths after being close enough to win if good enough. That form leaves him with a clear task to reverse the result, but he has won three times in the past 12 months and the 1400m looks suitable. From the wide draw he needs early control, yet his overall profile keeps him a genuine danger.

Comments

Picked up nicely late when fifth at Kawasaki last start, beaten seven and a half lengths by Gomez at big odds. She had also worked home fairly without threatening two back behind Schweigen, so the pattern is honest enough for lower exotics rather than a strong winning case. A track-and-trip win is useful, but she still has ground to make up on Gomez and Blue Radical.
