KING MINISTER (7) Finished 2nd last start here. Good prospects. LUXE LEON (2) Tidy run when 2nd last run around here and gets a favourable draw. Finishes off strongly. Ticks plenty of boxes and looks like value . FEEL MY WAY (5) Ran 4th last run around here. Has the talent to rebound quickly. Right in this. HIRONO RAFALE (1) Nice run when 2nd last run at the track and drawn beautifully. Likely to be well placed early. Demonstrating upward trajectory in recent races. Can threaten if right today.

Comments

Worked home evenly for second in an A3 at this track last start, beaten seven lengths by Maruka Rapid after sitting near the top of betting. His previous fourth behind Star Sand Beach over 1580m was more competitive, beaten just under three lengths in an open market. The strong track-and-trip record keeps him high in calculations, and barrier one gives him every chance to turn that consistency into a winning challenge.

Comments

Followed a narrow A5B2 win with a solid second in an A4 at this track, beaten three lengths by Moon Warrior and again respected in betting. The win came at long odds when he held off Home Run Batter by a nose, so the current form is genuine even if not dominant. Two wins and one placing from four starts at this track and distance give him a reliable profile, making him a realistic place hope with some upside.

Comments

Closed from a hopeless position to run fourth over 1580m at this track last start, beaten six lengths by Windmuhle at big odds. That was a better effort than his A1 sixth behind Cash Blitz two back, when beaten over 16 lengths and never likely. The weight relief helps and he has placed seven times at around 1400m, but the veteran still looks reliant on the race falling his way.

Comments

Came from well back to finish third over 1580m at this track last start, beaten five lengths by Windmuhle at generous odds. The run prior was only fair in an A3, finishing sixth behind Star Sand Beach after failing to quicken. Her 1400m record shows plenty of placings, but she was beaten by Hirono Rafale recently and will have to produce a sharper winning blow.

Comments

Picked up in the straight last start, but the end result was still a fourth in A3 company at this track, beaten over 14 lengths by Maruka Rapid. He had run third in an A4 before that, beaten five lengths by Hawaiian Icon at big odds. His five wins at this track and distance are respected, and the rider record is sound, but current margins leave him with a fair bit to find.

Comments

Ran third in an A3 at this track last start, but the margin was over 11 lengths behind Maruka Rapid after settling rearward. The run prior was a sixth behind Gustar, beaten eight and a half lengths when unwanted in the market. He has a win and two placings from seven at this track and distance and comes from a strong local stable, so a minor cheque is more realistic than a win.

Comments

Came from an unlikely position to run second in an A4 at this track last start, beaten four lengths by Hawaiian Icon as a prohibitive odds-on favourite. Two back he justified the same short quote in an A3, beating Nanyo Violet by three lengths on good ground. His track-and-trip record is faultless for the placings, and the partnership with Soichi Kato has produced two wins and four placings from six rides. Clearly the runner to beat.

Comments

Returns from a two-month break after finishing fifth at this track, beaten eight and a half lengths by Chuwa Spring when he worked home fairly without threatening. He had also finished fifth behind Gold Bond two starts back, with a much wider margin. The positive is his 1400m record, with three wins and four placings from 13 attempts, while Hiroshi Ohara knows him well. A place result appeals more than a win.

Comments

Finished seventh in an A3 at this track last start, beaten over 18 lengths by Maruka Rapid after being unwanted in the market. The start prior was no better, coming in last behind Hawaiian Icon and again beaten over 18 lengths. He has won at this track and distance, but the current form has gone badly off and a major turnaround is required to make an impact.
