Peisha Curren, Eranthis and Magic Touch to match motors but there will be plenty of pressure from other quarters. SHIRAKINU (8) returns after a spell of 12 weeks. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1200m at Kyoto Dirt. Boasts a first-up record of two wins and three placings from six starts. Rates highly and makes plenty of appeal. ERANTHIS (5) is back at the races for the first time since March 9. Worth noting she filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1400m at Hanshin Dirt. One of the genuine hopes in the race. PASCALI (1) returns from a layoff of nine weeks. Worth noting she filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1200m at Kyoto Dirt. Right in this while fresh. HIRUNO PYRENEES (14) turned in a fine effort to win by 4 lengths at today's course and distance last start in a nice progression on the first-up run. Meeting a deeper field this time but he can get the job done.
