Starts his career from barrier 1 with Ryo Novata, the top-ranked jockey for wins at this track, so there is one clear positive around the debut set-up. The wider profile is more measured, with Hiromi Yamazaki's debut runners winning 1 from 16 and the trainer-sire record sitting at 2 from 22. Half-siblings have won races, but he still shapes as one who has to show more than the main chances at his first race start.

Draws barrier 2 for his first start and has Tsubasa Sasagawa booked, a positive given his standing among the leading jockeys at this track. The Moanin colt is out of Red Hawk, with full sibling Earth Friendly having started over 1400m on debut at Ohi. There is enough in the draw and rider booking to give him a genuine place shape, though he still has to prove the winning edge first time out.

Makes his debut with the right blend of draw, weight and family depth, beginning from barrier 3 with 53kg for Hironori Sato. Full sibling Nagata Ace is a five-time winner, while several close relatives have raced well early, including Gold Cat winning on debut at Kawasaki and both Nagata Ace and Spirit Up fourth over 1400m at the same venue. That profile gives him the strongest winning platform.

Opens his career with some depth on the dam side, including several winning half-siblings and city winner Zuiun Gosai. Sakai Shinobu has produced 1 winner and 4 placings from 9 debut runners, which is respectable, but this colt lacks the sharper jockey or draw angles held by others. He can run a sound race, but the leading chances present stronger first-up profiles.

Begins for Hiroyuki Mogi and the stable's debut record gives him a solid foundation, with 1 winner and 5 placings from 8 first starters. The K T Brave colt has no exposed sibling evidence supplied, so the stable pattern carries most of the assessment. From barrier 5 under 55kg, he looks capable of making an immediate impact and rates among the better place chances.

Debuts for Yuya Yamazaki, whose first-starter record is a strong point with 6 wins and 15 placings from 23 runners. The Satono Aladdin filly also has winning relations in Optics and Kuriiro, and the trainer-sire figures show 7 placings from 16 starts. Barrier 6 asks her to do things cleanly, but her stable profile keeps her right in the minor-money mix.
