Returns from a three-month break after a Sapporo Dirt debut sixth in a NEWCOMER over good ground, beaten four and a half lengths behind Euphoknight after settling rearward. He was at long odds there, so the market gave him little expectation, but the run had enough substance for a one-start colt. Barrier 1 and Mirai Iwata help his case, and he profiles as a genuine place chance fresh.

Placed on debut at this track, finishing third behind Hamed Style after working home and picking off tired runners late. That gives him the clearest exposed platform in the race, with a placing already recorded at both this venue and the 1800m. Kohei Matsuyama is the top-ranked jockey for wins at this track, and second-up he has the right profile to take the next step.

Returns from a two-month freshening after finishing fourth on debut at Hanshin Dirt, beaten eight and a half lengths by Yamanin Galbe after failing to finish the race off. That margin keeps the assessment measured, but he was at generous odds and still produced a respectable first outing. From barrier 3 for Ryo Terashima, the top-ranked trainer for wins at this track, he has clear winning claims.

Has the benefit of three runs behind him and comes off a fourth at Niigata Dirt, beaten six and a half lengths by Ecoro Wald after settling rearward. His better piece of form came the start prior at this track when third behind Hoshio Mite Runna, beaten just over four lengths despite only battling into the minor money. Fourth-up fitness gives him a solid place profile.

Finished fifth at this track last start over 1400m, beaten just over nine lengths by Maru Mori My Best after conceding a huge start and never really getting into the race. His debut at Chukyo was also plain when second last, beaten just over nine lengths at long odds. Third-up fitness helps, but 1800m is new and he must find sharper late work.

Has been well held in all three starts and was ninth at this track last start, beaten over 17 lengths by Lord Grail after failing to muster in the straight. The start prior was no better, with a well-beaten seventh after giving ground late. His 1800m record reads three starts for no wins or placings, so he has plenty to turn around.

Finished 11th on debut at this track in a NEWCOMER, beaten over 20 lengths by Nishino Masamune after having plenty of ground to make up and proving unable to do so. He was at long odds there, so improvement was always likely to be required from his first race experience. The class drop is some help, but he has to show a lot more substance.

Has been well beaten in both starts at this track, most recently sixth of eight behind Naomiga Saikyo when beaten over 15 lengths after coming under pressure late. Her debut was similarly heavy, finishing 11th behind Himehakka despite being near the top of an open market. Third-up fitness is a positive, but the form has to lift markedly.

Was well beaten on debut at this track in a NEWCOMER won by Chuwa Arch, finishing tenth after being in the right spot but dropping out sharply in the straight. That exposed finish is an obvious concern, though he does come here second-up with a class drop and a pedigree page that includes city-winning siblings. He is more a minor-money proposition than a win play.
