Comments

Has been safely held at his past two starts, finishing last behind Schwarz Naga at Urawa and beaten over 14 lengths after making no headway. He had been second last the run prior, again beaten over 14 lengths, so recent form is a genuine concern. The strong 1600m record and prior track-and-trip win are positives, but he must show far more than he has lately.

Comments

Returns from a lengthy spell after five months off and resumes with recent form that reads poorly. He was fourth in a COND at this track when last seen, but beaten out of sight at long odds, after finishing 11th at Kawasaki. A prior win at this venue gives him some background appeal, but four previous 1600m attempts have produced no wins or placings.

Comments

Resumes after five months off having ended the last campaign with a tenth at Kawasaki in C1 company, beaten over 13 lengths at big odds. Her previous fourth at Urawa was more competitive, but she remains a one-time winner from 41 starts and is still chasing a first win at around 1600m after 22 tries. Others bring stronger recent claims.

Comments

Produced the best last-start form in the race when winning at Urawa, running home strongly to beat Yumede Aetara by a length and a half despite being unwanted in the market. That followed a solid third at this track, beaten just over two lengths. She has three wins and six placings at around 1600m, and that recent surge gives her a strong winning profile.

Comments

Recent form is plain, with consecutive seventh placings at Urawa and no clear excuse in either. He was beaten seven lengths last start at big odds and had been beaten over 12 lengths before that after making no headway. The step back to 1600m brings a query, with no wins or placings from nine previous starts around this distance.

Comes off two solid seconds at Urawa and was only run down late by Schwarz Naga last start after starting favourite, beaten a length and a half. He had also worked home evenly behind Beach Girl the run prior. The win record at around 1600m is the knock, but Kenji Okamura has a good record on him and he is clearly racing well enough to win this.

Comments

Was never a winning hope behind Schwarz Naga and Yumede Aetara at Urawa last start, but kept finding to be beaten just under six lengths. His previous fifth at this track was better, beaten just under two lengths after looming up. He has placed twice from four starts at this track and distance, so a sharper closing effort would put him right in this.

Comments

Was well-supported favourite at Urawa last start and had every chance before finishing sixth, beaten three and a half lengths. The run prior was a fair fifth, beaten just over seven lengths. His broader record is stronger than those two efforts, with nine wins overall and four wins around 1600m, so he profiles as a place hope if he rebounds.

Comments

Returns from a five-week freshening after a poor tenth at this track in COND grade, beaten over 17 lengths and unwanted in the market. He was also safely held here the start prior, beaten just over six lengths at big odds. A previous track-and-trip win is in his favour, but the recent figures leave him with considerable ground to make up.

Comments

Back after five weeks and brings a strong local reference, having finished second at this track in COND grade last start when beaten a neck as favourite. That was a clear turnaround from his Niigata Dirt tenth, where he weakened badly over 1800m in a Mdn. Still a maiden after eight starts, but the latest run gives him genuine place claims.

Comments

Finished fourth at Urawa last start, beaten five lengths at big odds, which was a better result than his prior seventh behind Beach Girl over 2000m. He gets weight relief and rates well on last-12-month form, while his overall profile shows enough substance for this grade. The win strike-rate is modest, but he looks one of the better each-way chances.

Comments

Returns from a four-month break after finishing second at this track, beaten two and a half lengths when run down late. The start prior was a ninth here, beaten nine lengths, so consistency is the question. He has won around 1600m and Akira Harita has had success on him before, making him a realistic minor-money hope fresh.

Comments

Has been well held at recent runs, finishing second last at Urawa behind Io Ray and beaten just over nine lengths at big odds. She had been eighth the start prior, beaten over 10 lengths after giving away a big start. Her season record is also poor, with no placings from 15 starts, so she has plenty to turn around.

Comments

Back after a five-week freshening following a fifth at this track in COND grade, beaten nine and a half lengths despite picking up late. His previous fourth here was more encouraging, beaten just under two lengths in an open market. Weight relief and the class drop help, but he looks more a place hope than a clear winning threat.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield
