Prize Money: $9,872

TSUKIYONO NEGAI (3) Tidy run when 2nd last start at this venue and showing consistent performance in races. Jockey Manato Hida and trainer Mitsunori Koga form a formidable team. Should go well. DAVAY HO O (5) Left nothing to chance when winning by 1 1/2L last run at the track. Open to improvement and is a strong chance again. QUINTET HOPE (6) Was very impressive when winning by a margin of 3L last start at Monbetsu. Added confidence jockey with Isao Yamaguchi doing the steering. In the mix. DAIMEI SANSHI (7) Tidy effort when 2nd last start at this venue and putting a tidy record together so far. Should muster plenty of early speed. Well placed and has solid claims.

Comments

Was never a threat when eighth at this track last start, beaten just over seven lengths behind Kashino Hood Star after giving away too much ground and attracting little market interest. The start prior was better, closing into fourth behind Miyano Goodly when beaten a length and a half. His track-and-distance record gives him some footing, but he profiles as a rough each-way chance rather than a primary winning hope.

Comments

Resumed with a very plain last at this track, well beaten by 20 lengths behind Kashino Hood Star after weakening through the line. She was also safely held in Open grade at Kokura two runs back, finishing 16th at big odds. A previous placing around this distance is the small positive, but her latest form leaves her with a lot to find.

Comments

Has been admirably consistent, finishing second at this track last start when beaten just under a length by Prayer Bond after being caught right on the line. He had also led and been run down late when third behind Moon Of The Gorous. Four placings from four starts underline his reliability, but he has had market support without winning and looks more an each-way player than a clear top seed.

Comments

Worked home from well back for seventh at this track last start, beaten just under six lengths by Kashino Hood Star after starting at big odds. That was a clear improvement on her second-last placing behind Miyano Goodly two runs prior, when beaten over 12 lengths. She has placed three times from six at this track and distance, so a minor placing is within reach if she sustains the finish.

Broke through strongly at this venue last start, beating Daimei Saga by a length and a half after looming up and finding enough late. That was a major step forward from his fifth behind Timbre Tesoro, where he was beaten a long way at long odds. One win from two tries at the distance adds substance, and if he holds that latest level he is a genuine place chance with winning upside.

Produced the best last-start win in the race when scoring by three lengths at Mombetsu, beating Big Hope Roof after settling handy and drawing away in the run home. He was only fair behind Kaseno Eagle the run prior, but that latest performance came with market confidence and gives him the clearest recent peak. With Isao Yamaguchi aboard, he sets the standard and looks the horse they have to beat.

Comments

Turned in a solid on-speed effort when second at this track last start, beaten two lengths by Magissa Kirke after staying right in the contest. Two back he was fifth behind Esken Sniper but still closed off from an awkward spot. Three placings from five starts show he is holding his form, and while he is yet to win, his current level makes him one of the stronger threats.
