MADISON GIRL (8) First up today. Performed below standard when 7th last run at Chukyo. Capable of bouncing back and suited at this trip historically. Warrants a bet.

LES AILES FORTES (1) Romped home to win last time around here and good career start. Has minimal work to do from the gate. Has the ability to figure. LUX ZINNIA (3) Racing fresh after a break. Came in 4th last run at Sapporo. Kenichi Ikezoe takes the reins today. Has to be included.

Returns from a five-week let-up after working home over the top to win at this track over 2000m, beating Elegancia by a length and a half while near the top of betting. She had earlier won a Mdn at Niigata from Laptop as favourite, so the form profile is building quickly. The first try around 1800m is the only query, but two wins and one place from four starts gives her a strong winning platform.

Finished second last at this track last start, beaten over 12 lengths by Come Up Roses after giving away a big start and never getting into the race. The start prior was similar at Niigata, where she was eighth and beaten over 12 lengths at big odds. With six previous starts around 1800m for no wins and no placings, she has a lot to turn around.

Resumes after three months off having last seen racing at Sapporo, where she was fourth as a well-supported favourite and beaten just over a length by Million Crown. Her previous fourth at Sapporo was also sound, and she has one win and one placing from six tries around 1800m. K Ikezoe has a solid record on her, which keeps her among the realistic place chances.

Returns from a lengthy spell after finishing fourth in a FM ALLOW at Nakayama, beaten just over three lengths by Lovely Jubbly. She had also run fourth at Tokyo the start prior, beaten two lengths by Teleos Sarah while near the top of betting. One win and two places from seven starts around 1800m is useful, though first-up after eight months she profiles more as a place hope.

Improved at Tokyo last start when second to Kreisleriana, beaten two and a half lengths after working home evenly at long odds. That was a much better effort than her second-last at Hanshin, where she gave away too much start and was never in the race. Third-up now and with two wins and two placings from eight tries around 1800m, she has genuine place appeal.

Resumes after five months off following a ninth at Fukushima, where she held a narrow lead before being swamped and beaten three and a half lengths by Clochette Noel. Her previous run in a FM ALLOW at Kokura was weaker, finishing last and beaten just under ten lengths. The 1800m record is respectable, but recent form leaves her with plenty to prove.

Ran second at this track first-up, beaten three and a half lengths by Olibanum after being sent out an odds-on favourite and only holding on fairly late. She had earlier been fourth at Chukyo, beaten a length and a half as favourite after leading and working home evenly. Her one win and one place from two starts at this venue keeps her right in the minor-money mix.

Resumes after four months off with the strongest track-and-distance profile in the field, boasting two wins and two places from four starts under these conditions. She was only fair when seventh at Chukyo before the break, but the run prior was an ALLOW win at this track, where she beat Win Lauda by a nose as odds-on favourite. With Yuga Kawada back aboard, she is a major threat fresh.
