Comments

Had too much to do after conceding a big start when sixth at this track last time, beaten just over nine lengths behind Good Romance at big odds. The run prior was far stronger, winning a COND over 1400m at this venue by four lengths from Yamami Wolf and finishing with real authority. She has placed at this track and distance, so a return to that sharper effort would put her in the minor-money picture.

Comments

Produced a boilover at this track last start, settling rearward and arriving late to beat Mjuk Thomas by a nose over 1400m at long odds. That win was a clear lift on her second-last finish behind Drop Of Ray in C6 grade, where she was beaten over 11 lengths. She is unplaced in two tries around 1580m, so this looks a tougher assignment despite the confidence of winning form.

Comments

Lifted sharply last start, coming from back in the field to beat Krichashchii by a length in C5 grade at this track despite being unwanted in the market. That followed a flat seventh behind Yamanin Eidolon, beaten over 10 lengths, so the form has been hard to trust. Her extensive track-and-distance record is a plus, but she still has to reproduce the latest surge against stronger opposition.

Comments

Keeps winning and was again solid at this track last start, beating Hyakuretsuken by just under a length after starting near the top of betting. His previous success was more dominant, spacing Zircon Tesoro by six lengths in a COND on good ground. Three wins from three starts at this venue makes the profile hard to knock, but this shapes more as a strong place claim than a clear top pick.

Comments

Controlled things and extended well to beat Porter Chance by a length and a half over 1400m at this track last time, confirming he is effective at this venue. The concern is the start prior, when odds-on and beaten over 11 lengths by Beast Wars despite trying hard from the front. Around 1580m is new ground, so he has more to prove than the recent win alone suggests.

Comments

Returns from a lengthy spell after finishing fourth at this track behind Bold Hawk in A4 grade, beaten just over four lengths as the odds-on favourite after making late ground. His previous run was a solid A3 third behind Hifumi Bandam, and his past 12 months record reads respectably. The concern is a winless, unplaced track-and-distance record, making him a place hope rather than a runner to lean on.

Comments

Comes in with the strongest winning profile after successive 1400m victories at this track, most recently beating Masticare by a length when near the top of betting. Two back she beat Go Legend by two lengths in a COND, and her broader record this season confirms the consistency. Around 1580m is new territory, but her venue form and current momentum make her the horse they have to beat.

Comments

Took a useful step forward last start, winning a C2 at this track over 1400m by a length and a half from Win Abelia after finishing strongly through the line. The run prior behind Karakuri Spirits was only fair when sixth, beaten four and a half lengths, but the latest result points to genuine upside. He is unplaced in two goes around 1580m, yet the current set-up still gives him a live winning chance.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield

Comments

Finished last at this track most recently, beaten over 11 lengths behind Eye On The Ball after having the job ahead and failing to close the race off. She had won her previous start over 1400m at this venue by a length from Ric Noir, but that form was not carried through. With no placing from six tries around 1580m, she must produce a much sharper performance to threaten.

Expected Settling Position: Off Pace

Comments

Made the right response at this track last start, starting favourite and beating Lady Sofia by a length and a half, with her record now two wins from two starts at this venue. Her previous Sonoda run behind Ecoro Bolt was plain, but she is fitter third-up and already one from one at this distance. With the leading local jockey and trainer combination involved, she profiles as a serious winning threat.
