AOI GATE (6) Didn't threaten when 7th last start at Sapporo. Happy to overlook that run. Expected to be flashing home. Expect to go close. ATOMIC LIZHI (8) Fresh today after a break. Made ground when closing off to finish 4th last run at Niigata and was a debutant last start. Respect. GRAND STORY (2) Resuming after a break. Picked up late ground when 3rd beaten by 1 1/2L last time at Niigata and fitter for debut run. Should jump out and bowl along. Needs some luck and is an each way suggestion. SARASA CYNTHIA'S (7) Picked up some late ground when 4th last start at this venue and was a debutant last start. Will be around the mark at odds.

Comments

Worked home evenly when sixth in a NEWCOMER over 1800m at this track on debut, beaten three and a half lengths behind So Robust after being unwanted in the market. She is fitter second-up and does get some class relief into a Mdn, but 2000m is new territory and that debut did not contain a clear excuse. Barrier one helps her conserve ground, yet she still has to find sharper closing speed to threaten the main hopes.

Comments

Resumes after three months off following a sound debut third at Niigata, beaten a length and a half by Taivas despite being unwanted in the market. She tracked the speed and worked home evenly, which reads well for a filly with only one run behind her. Already placed at this distance and drawn to get every chance, she brings one of the more reliable profiles and should take a power of beating if forward enough.

Has been safely held in two starts, finishing eighth at this track last start when beaten seven and a half lengths by Interlagos after being close enough to do more. His debut at Nakayama was also plain, beaten over 13 lengths behind Vetro Tempesta, and he was unwanted in the market both times. Third-up fitness and a leading track jockey are positives, but the race form has to lift markedly.

Comments

Debuted with a fifth in a NEWCOMER over 1800m at this track, beaten just over five lengths by Satono Kagura after starting at long odds. He can roll forward and that gives him a practical racing pattern, while the move into a Mdn is a more suitable assignment. The 2000m trip is still untried, so he profiles as a realistic place contender rather than a runner to declare as a clear winning chance.

Comments

Returns from a four-month break after finishing 11th on debut at Fukushima, beaten five and a half lengths by Escuadra as favourite. He failed to finish it off there, so the market confidence is more encouraging than the finishing position. Fresh improvement is possible from a colt who was clearly expected to show ability, but he has to convert that expectation into stronger late work to be a serious threat.

Returns from a two-month freshening after a disappointing Sapporo seventh, beaten just over nine lengths by Meiner Ricordi when near the top of betting and entitled to do more. Her debut third at Sapporo behind Vent De L'Est was better, and she has placed once from two starts overall, including with this jockey. A rebound to that first run puts her in the minor-money picture.

Picked up nicely in the straight on debut at this track, but still finished fourth in a NEWCOMER over 1800m and was beaten over 11 lengths by Val Camonica. That margin makes the form hard to overrate, even allowing for natural second-up improvement and the booking of one of the leading jockeys at this track. The new 2000m test is another question, so she looks a place hope at best.

Resumes after three months off following a debut fourth at Niigata, where he was a well-supported favourite and finished just over four lengths behind Korallion. He was in touch before working home fairly, so there is improvement to come rather than a finished article. With Christophe Lemaire aboard and a leading track stable behind him, he gets the right platform to justify top billing.
