Comments

Finished eighth at Sonoda last start in a 3yo+ C3, beaten seven and a half lengths after racing close enough before coming under pressure late. The run prior was another eighth here, beaten just over six lengths by Promettre, so the recent profile is plain. With no wins from 18 starts and no placing from four tries at this track and distance, he needs a sizeable lift.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield

Comments

Second-up after an even eighth at Sonoda, beaten eight and a half lengths by Nordia when near the top of betting. Her previous fifth in a 4yo+ C2 here was better, beaten just over two lengths by Meisho Onite after having the run of the race but not finishing it off. The 51kg helps and she has won with this jockey, but she must turn market respect into stronger late work.

Comments

Was unwanted in the market and ran second last in a 3yo+ C2 at Sonoda last start, beaten over 13 lengths by Safari with no clear excuse. Two back she led and was only beaten just over a length by Nishino Mignonne, which is the run that keeps her in the mix. A four-time track-and-distance winner, she can bounce back into minor money if that prior effort is repeated.

Expected Settling Position: Leader

Improved sharply at Sonoda last start when fifth behind Madam Ladybug, beaten a length and a half after being unwanted in the market. That followed a third here behind Les Ailes Noires, albeit beaten seven lengths when better fancied. She is still a maiden after 19 starts, but four placings from nine at this track and distance make her a genuine winning chance in a modest race.

Ran fourth at Sonoda last start but was still beaten just over seven lengths by Nordia after looming near the turn and proving only fair late. The start prior was weaker, finishing second last behind Promettre and beaten nine and a half lengths. A maiden with just one placing from 20 starts, she needs more than a favourable weight to trouble the main chances.

Settled well back and made little impact when tenth at Sonoda last start, beaten nine and a half lengths by Madam Ladybug after being unwanted in the market. The run prior was considerably stronger, leading and only being run down late when third to Tiara Azul, beaten half a length. That peak run gives her a place case, though one win from 45 starts keeps the ceiling limited.

Worked into a suitable position at Sonoda last start but could not go on with it, finishing fourth behind Nishino Galante and beaten just under five lengths. Before that she was seventh behind Trance Run, beaten over 11 lengths, so the form lacks a strong closing edge. She has placed at this track and distance, but the maiden record remains the major stumbling block.

Comments

Drops back from recent 1230m runs after finishing tenth behind Haste at Sonoda, beaten just over eight lengths at big odds. The previous run was worse, finishing last behind Techno Express and beaten a long way after starting favourite. She has won once at this track, but the current form is well short of what is required over this sharper trip.

Expected Settling Position: Off Pace

Comments

Placed at Sonoda last start but was still beaten six and a half lengths by Nordia after pressing forward and working home evenly. Her previous fifth behind Hokuzan Chouchou came from further back and left her beaten nine lengths. The track-and-distance record is solid, and she combines well enough with Kanta Inoue, but recent margins say she needs to lift to threaten.

Comments

Has strung together two fourths at Sonoda, the latest a length-and-a-half defeat by Madam Ladybug after sitting just behind the leaders and battling on fairly. Two back she made good ground from midfield at long odds, suggesting her form is trending the right way. With two wins at this track and distance and 52kg again, she profiles as a sound place chance.

Went desperately close at Sonoda first-up, beaten a head by Five Reyna after travelling well and being pipped on the post as an odds-on favourite. That followed a 4yo+ C2 win at Himeji where she beat Shirozukinchan by two lengths, again with market confidence. Her season form is excellent and the leading trainer-jockey profile strengthens the case, making her the runner to beat.

Closed in on another win when third behind Madam Ladybug at Sonoda, beaten just over a length after travelling within striking range but lacking the final punch. Her previous fifth behind Trance Run was sound enough in context, and she has already won at this track and distance. The record with Osamu Shimohara is a clear plus, so she deserves strong respect again.
