Returns from a three-month break after finishing fourth in a Mdn at Hanshin, beaten just over two lengths after racing in touch and only working home fairly. That was better than the Chukyo run prior, where he was 12th and beaten over 12 lengths. Still unplaced from six starts, with no placing from four goes around 1800m, so he has plenty to prove in this company.

Returns from a lengthy eight-month spell with proven track-and-distance form, including one win and two placings from six attempts at this course and trip. The concern is that his two most recent runs at this venue were a sixth behind Meiner Turpan and an eighth behind Makana, both at big odds. His best figures give him some hope, but recent evidence leaves him with a fair bit to find.

Returns from a six-week let-up in good order after finishing second at this track, beaten six lengths by Femme Courageuse but very strong through the closing stages. He was only a length and a half away at Sapporo before that, and his record around 1800m is solid, with one win and four placings from six starts. Race fitness and reliable distance form keep him high among the winning chances.

Returns from a six-week let-up after a plain tenth at this track, beaten over 14 lengths behind Femme Courageuse when he failed to finish off. The prior ALLOW win at this venue over Edel Krone shows he is not without ability, and he has won at the distance, but the latest run was too poor to ignore. He has to recapture that earlier form quickly.

Returns from a three-month break with the best exposed form in the race. He was third in the G3 Radio Nikkei Sho at Fukushima, beaten two lengths after leading and only being run down late, then finished tenth but only four lengths from Justin Chicago in the G2 Asahi Hai St Lite Kinen (Japanese St Leger Trial). Two wins and one placing from three starts around 1800m, plus strong track form, make him the one to beat.

Back after a two-month freshening with place claims on the strength of his latest Nakayama seventh, where he was beaten just under five lengths but made an eye-catching late effort from a long way back. The run prior over 2500m was only fair, and he remains unplaced from eleven starts in the past 12 months. Capable of filling a minor placing, but the winning edge is harder to find.

Returns from a three-month break after a solid fourth at Sapporo, beaten a length and a half by Hayabusa Sakichan and having Dogwood behind him there. The Hakodate run prior was a complete forgive only in result, as he was beaten a long way as a well-supported favourite after conceding a huge start. His overall record is sound enough to be included for the minors.

Third-up now and ready to give this a shake after two fourths at Niigata, most recently beaten two lengths over 2000m on soft ground when near the top of an open market. He has placed at both runs at this track and owns one win and three placings from six starts around 1800m. With that fitness base and reliable distance profile, he sits among the main dangers.

Back after two months following a very poor tenth at Nakayama Dirt, where he was never competitive and was beaten out of sight at big odds. His Fukushima run before that was also a rearward tenth, beaten just over six lengths after making no impression late. One win from six starts around 1800m is some consolation, but his recent form is well short of what is required.

Returns from a three-month break after an 11th at Sapporo, beaten just over six lengths when he was poised to strike but offered little. The start prior was much better, leading throughout to beat Grand Saison by a length at Sapporo, and his distance record is respectable with one win and three placings from six starts. A return to that winning form would put him in the minor mix.

Back after a two-month let-up in winning form, having scored at Nakayama over 2000m as an odds-on favourite and beaten Cathedral Quartz by just under two lengths. His Niigata fourth before that was also solid, with Kishidancho only just under two lengths ahead. The return to 1800m is the query, but a two-win, one-place record from four starts keeps him firmly in the finish.

Third-up with weight relief, but the form says he has to lift sharply. He was last at this track over 1600m, beaten just over nine lengths at long odds, and had also finished last at Nakayama when beaten over 15 lengths. Unplaced in nine starts at this track and in 13 turf runs, he appears up against it despite the kinder weight.
