BALTIC AMBER (3) Flashed home late into 3rd last start at the track and having second career run. Back to a shorter trip. Worth an investment. YUI RENOVATION (9) Closed off nicely when 4th last start at Hanshin. Capable of forward showing and can be competitive. REAL KHAN (7) Made some ground when 5th last start around here and having second career run. Exotics and place chance. VERVIERS (2) Fresh today after a break. Didn't find the line when 6th last time at Chukyo but can find a nice position from the draw. Looks to have a good chance of placing.

Comments

Worked home from a long way back when fifth at this track last start, beaten nine lengths by Pair Star Road after starting at big odds. His debut at Hanshin Dirt was also from well off them, finishing seventh in a NEWCOMER over 1200m behind Philippeville. Now third-up and fitter, he has a case for the minors if he can stay in touch earlier.

Comments

Returns from a three-month break after finishing sixth at Chukyo, beaten just under four lengths by Sant'Angelo when unwanted in the market. His debut fourth at Kokura Dirt was sound enough, beaten three lengths after racing handy before weakening late. He resumes with some form depth for this field, but has to turn even efforts into a sharper finish.

Comments

Placed on debut at this track in a NEWCOMER over 1800m, but the result needs caution because he was never competitive and was beaten out of sight after starting favourite. The class drop helps and he is a ¥39.6m yearling purchase, yet he has not raced at around 1400m before. He can improve, but the win case is far from settled.

Comments

Comes back on a one-week turnaround after finishing seventh at this track over 1800m, beaten over 12 lengths by Leviathan after settling just off the lead. His debut eighth at Hanshin Dirt was also plain, but he is now third-up and race fit. The first go around 1400m is a query, though this is the point in the campaign where he can improve sharply.

Comments

Returns from a two-month freshening after finishing last on debut at Sapporo Dirt, where he had the run of the race early but gave nothing and dropped out to finish well held. The class drop is some help, yet he has not raced at around 1400m before. A far stronger closing effort is required.

Returns from a three-month break after finishing last of eight on debut at Kokura, beaten just over nine lengths by U W One when at long odds. He did keep going when the job was beyond him, but there was no real winning threat in the run. First go around 1400m leaves him with a fair bit to prove.

Made a fair debut at this track when fifth in a NEWCOMER, beaten just under six lengths by Miho Maru after settling rearward and starting at big odds. That gives him a solid base for a second-up improver, and the stable profile adds weight to the case. With natural progression from that first outing, he looks one of the main winning chances.

Comments

Has been well beaten at all three starts, most recently ninth at Hanshin Dirt when beaten over 16 lengths by Sky Meteor after conceding a huge start. The start prior at Chukyo was similar, beaten over 13 lengths and never in the picture. Race fitness is there, but the form leaves him with a steep task.

Kept working to the line when fourth at Hanshin Dirt last start, beaten over 11 lengths by Sky Meteor despite being unwanted in the market. His earlier Kokura run was fair enough in context, beaten just over five lengths by Curren Hau. Second-up now and rated strongly on recent form, he brings the most convincing winning profile in this line-up.

Comments

Finished 13th on debut at Hanshin Dirt over 1800m, settling rearward and never making an impact as Yamanin Galbe won. He was at long odds and finished well held, so the form needs a major turnaround. The ¥3.9m yearling has not raced around 1400m before and others look much further advanced.

Expected Settling Position: Off Midfield
