Tokyo Race 12 - The Meguro Kinen(G2)

VICTOR VERUS (6) was first up from a spell last start and saluted by a nose at Hanshin over 2600m. Yet to miss the frame in seven runs and loves it here. Expected to measure up. DANON CIMA (11) is having his first run since March 22. Goes very well when fresh with three wins from six starts, the latest over 2000m at this track at the start of last prep. Capable of playing a major role. FEIERN KRANZ (4) resumes today after filling a minor placing at his only appearance last prep in the G3 Diamond Stakes at this track over 3400m on February 21.Goes well fresh and leading rider goes aboard. Look for a bold run. HEARTS CONCERTO (9) ran on from the back fresh and beaten only a length. Years since a win but fitter and is an excellent winning chance.
