Worked into his debut nicely at this track and finished third in a NEWCOMER over 1800m, beaten just under two lengths by Malkia after being sent out an odds-on favourite. The step to 2000m is new, but he drops into Mdn grade, draws barrier 1 and has Mirai Iwata aboard as the top-ranked jockey for wins at this track. That gives him the right profile to go close second-up.

Finished 12th on debut in a NEWCOMER at this track over 1600m, beaten nine and a half lengths by Rasgueado after being unwanted in the market. He was only fair through the line and now tackles 2000m for the first time. The class drop offers some help, but he will have to show far more second-up to trouble the main chances.

Race fitness is on his side third-up, but the race form remains plain. He was second last at this track last start, beaten five lengths by Arcane Trail after failing to quicken, and had been ninth on debut behind Gold Krieger when unwanted in the market. Unplaced in two starts at this distance, he has plenty to find despite the stronger time-rating pointers.

Improved second time out when fifth at this track, beaten two and a half lengths by Arcane Trail after picking up well late. That was a clear step forward from his Chukyo debut, where he finished last and was beaten over 15 lengths in NEWCOMER company. He meets Narita Top Light again off that latest run, so a minor placing looks more realistic than a dominant winning case.

Has been sound rather than threatening in two starts, finishing fourth on debut at Hanshin before running sixth at this track last start, beaten six and a half lengths by Etoile Hammer. The latest run lacked a change of gear, but he is race fit third-up and has shown enough early-season substance to remain in the mix for a placing if he finds a stronger finish.

Produced the key last-start improvement when second at this track, beaten a length and a half by Arcane Trail after starting at big odds and giving a brave account. His debut effort behind Red Seeker was plain, but the latest run gives him a genuine platform third-up. Already placed at this distance and with this jockey, he has earned a strong winning chance.

Was well held on debut in a NEWCOMER at this track over 1600m, finishing 14th of 17 and beaten over 12 lengths by Rasgueado after starting at long odds. She settled rearward and made no impression late, so there was no obvious excuse. The class drop is a small positive, but the move to 2000m is untried and she has a lot to make up.

Resumed with a fair fourth at Tokyo, beaten four and a half lengths by Scia Lunare after leading and working home evenly. His debut at Tokyo was much weaker when last and beaten over 15 lengths, though he was near the top of an open market that day. A ¥159.5m purchase with time-rating support, he can hold place claims if he builds on the latest run.

Has produced two honest runs to begin his career, placing at this track over 1800m on debut before finishing fourth at Tokyo, beaten three lengths by Initial Point. The 2000m is new, but he was near the top of betting first time out and has already shown he handles this venue. Third-up, with Ryusei Sakai riding, he has the form base to press hard for a maiden win.

Was safely held at Niigata last start, finishing seventh and beaten just over nine lengths by Sunrise Eight after giving away a big start and never getting into the race. His debut sixth at this track behind Reign In The Sky was more competitive, but he has now been unplaced in both starts and was behind Ho O Beast in that earlier meeting. Others bring stronger recent form.
