Worked home evenly for third at this track last start in a 3yo+ B8C2, beaten four lengths after being well-supported favourite. That was a more stable effort after she led and dropped out sharply when sent out favourite in 3yo+ C1 company the run prior. Drawn to race handy from barrier one, and her record with Junki Mochizuki gives her a strong platform to bounce back as a key winning chance.

Went close when third at this track last start in a 3yo COND, beaten just under a length after being near the top of betting and only pipped late. That was a clear step forward on his Chukyo tenth over 2200m, where he was beaten nine lengths at long odds. Still a maiden after ten starts, so he profiles more as an each-way hope than a horse to take short odds about.

Failed to make an impact when sixth at this track last start in 3yo+ C1 grade, beaten over 10 lengths after starting an outside chance in the betting. He had won a 3yo+ C5 here the start prior, beating Masahaya Mauve by a neck after leading and fighting on, but the rise in standard exposed him. A return to that winning effort would help, yet others bring stronger current claims.

Ran better than seventh suggests at this track last start, beaten four and a half lengths after looking out of play before finishing strongly. Two back he was sixth in 3yo+ B5 company, beaten just over eight lengths, but again worked home with purpose from a long way back. Proven at this track and distance and gets weight relief, so he is a genuine place prospect if he gets clear air.

Has been well held at both recent runs, finishing last at this track in 3yo+ B7 grade last start when beaten over 16 lengths and unwanted in the market. She was also sixth here the run prior, beaten over 13 lengths after settling rearward. The class drop is some help, but her record at this venue is poor and she has a fair bit to find on recent evidence.

Returns from a two-month break after an eighth at Sapporo Dirt in a 3yo Maiden, beaten over 11 lengths at long odds when unable to make headway. She was also eighth at Sapporo the run prior, but her overall profile is stronger than those two runs, with three placings from eight starts and a favourable class drop into this. If she settles into local grade, she has the right profile to justify top billing.

Worked home evenly for third at this track last start in 3yo+ C1 grade, beaten four lengths as an outside chance in the betting. The concern is his previous run, when last at this venue and beaten over 20 lengths after fading late despite market respect. His career and track-distance records are sound, but the gap between his best and worst recent efforts makes him hard to trust as a winning play.

Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing 11th at Chukyo in a 3yo Maiden, beaten six and a half lengths when unwanted in the market and never really involved. Her previous fifth at Kokura was more encouraging, beaten three and a half lengths over 1200m. The class drop helps, though she is unplaced from three attempts around this distance, making her a place chance with a query.

Tried hard when third at this track last start in 3yo+ B7 company, although she was beaten eight and a half lengths after starting at long odds. The run prior was plain when seventh and beaten over 11 lengths, but her broader record at this track and distance is reliable, with five placings from eight attempts. That consistency keeps her firmly among the stronger chances despite a modest win strike-rate.

Continued a solid run of form when second at this track last start in 3yo+ COND company, beaten five lengths after settling rearward. She had earlier run fourth in 3yo+ C1 grade at this venue, beaten three and a half lengths at big odds, so the recent efforts stack up well enough for this. A previous track-and-trip win adds substance, and she looks a reliable place hope again.
