Comments

Returns from a lengthy spell after finishing sixth over 1600m at Kochi, beaten over 10 lengths by Win Liberale after settling just off the lead. His previous run was also plain when eighth over 1400m, beaten over 11 lengths, so the recent form leaves a query. The class drop and strong 12-month profile help, and barrier 1 can suit his handy style if he returns in order.

Expected Settling Position: Off Pace

1400m - 1800m

Comments

Had little impact at Kawasaki last start when ninth over 1400m, beaten over 11 lengths at long odds after giving away too much ground. The run prior is the key counterpoint: she was second in a 3yo+ C3 over 1600m at Funabashi, beaten half a length by Final Wonder when near the top of betting. The rise to 1800m remains a query, but she has enough local placing form to be considered for minor money.

Comments

Improved at Urawa last week when sixth over 1500m, beaten a length and a half by Infanta at long odds after settling rearward. That was a clear lift on his Funabashi run prior, where he was second last and beaten over 15 lengths by Yuomaishin. The distance remains unproven and he has a thin recent winning profile, but the quick return gives him a place chance if the latest effort holds.

Comments

Has put together a reliable sequence at Kawasaki, running third over 2000m in a 3yo+ C2C3 last start when beaten three lengths by Crow Song after working home evenly. That followed a second to Sandy Beach at the same trip, beaten two and a half lengths at generous odds. The back in trip is the only real query, but his recent form is clearly among the strongest in this field.

Comments

Dropped away sharply in the same Kawasaki 3yo+ C2C3 as Watzmann last start, finishing second last and well held behind Crow Song after sitting close enough to matter. He had been sixth over 2000m before that, beaten eight and a half lengths when the final effort was only moderate. The shorter trip may help, but he needs a far stronger finish before he is a serious factor.

Comments

Returns from a two-month break after finishing fifth at Urawa over 1500m, beaten just over seven lengths by L'Oiseaubleu Chinu when unable to quicken. He had been fourth there at big odds the run prior, beaten just under four lengths, but his past year reads poorly with no placings from twelve starts. Previous track-and-trip success is noted, yet he needs to find old form quickly.

Comments

Was again safely held at Kawasaki last start, finishing seventh over 1400m and beaten just over seven lengths by Oriko Paradise after being swamped late. Her Funabashi run prior was weaker, tenth over 1200m and beaten over 11 lengths at long odds. The place record here is respectable, with nine placings from 24 track starts, but the rise to 1800m asks a fair question.

Comments

Returns from a five-week freshening after a better sixth at Funabashi, beaten five lengths by Yuomaishin at big odds after making up ground in eye-catching style. The start prior was a heavy defeat here behind Balance The Books, beaten over 14 lengths, so one improved run is not enough to declare him. He has placed once from seven tries at this track and distance, but others bring firmer claims.

Comments

Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing sixth over 1200m at Funabashi, beaten just under seven lengths by Just Kingdom despite picking up nicely in the straight. She was fourth in a small field here two back, again beaten more than six lengths. The rise to 1800m is a genuine test, and with only one placing from 14 starts she needs more substance late.

Comments

Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing ninth at Funabashi, beaten six and a half lengths by Yuomaishin when making late ground from well back without threatening. His previous run is the stronger guide, having won a 3yo+ C3 here by a neck from King Bullseyes. With a track-and-distance win already on the record, he remains a live chance if he recaptures that sharper effort.

Comments

Resumes after six weeks following an eighth at Kawasaki over 1400m, beaten over 12 lengths by Vip Jesse at long odds after settling rearward and making no impression. The start prior was no better, second last over 1500m and beaten over 14 lengths after dropping out sharply. The class drop is some assistance, but the recent form leaves her with a sizeable task.

Comments

Has been unable to make an impact in two runs this campaign, latest when eighth at Kawasaki over 1400m, beaten seven and a half lengths by Oriko Paradise after only a fair finish. She was 12th at Funabashi two back over 1600m, beaten a long way when fading late. A prior track win offers some grounding, but the 1800m test looks a stretch on current evidence.

Comments

Returns from a five-week freshening after a much better third at Funabashi over 1500m, beaten just under four lengths by Satono Oriental despite being unwanted in the market. He had tired badly here the run prior when tenth behind Jesco, so the latest effort was a meaningful rebound. The move to 1800m is the new question, but his track placing record gives him a solid each-way profile.

Comments

Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing seventh at Funabashi, beaten five and a half lengths by Yuomaishin at generous odds when working home fairly from well back. She was never involved here two back, beaten over 14 lengths by Kitasan Riser over 1600m. Her career record is strong overall, but six unplaced runs at the distance temper the winning case.
