Genuine tempo from Orpheus leading Mariana Jazz. ORPHEUS (8) did a great job to score by 6 lengths over today's course and distance last time out to make it two-for-two this prep. Looks well placed so expect another big run. KURA JUNK (6) landed his maiden success over this course and distance last time, scoring by 1.5 lengths. Can go on with the job now. MARIANA JAZZ (1) is finding the breakthrough elusive, beaten 12 lengths into sixth at his latest appearance over 1500m at this track. Should be poised just off the lead. One of the main contenders. SHINANO YOSHI KYU (2) raced below his best last time when 11th over 1500m at Urawa, beaten 18 lengths. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time.
