The pace looks even at best without a noted on-pacer engaged. IDAMANTE (7) has not appeared since he finished third over 900m at Kawasaki on April 6 2023. Has switched to the Tomokazu Tachibana stable and has found a suitable race. This is easier than what he's been racing in and he can shed the maiden tag today. NEO LIES (11) is backing up quickly after finishing in the money at Mizusawa over 1300m just seven days ago. Good effort last start and should prove tough to beat. ROCKY TITAN (8) was well fancied when resuming last start over 1300m at Mizusawa when third, beaten 6 lengths. Expected to improve and gets his chance. LOG HOUSE (1) has not won for a long while. Last raced on April 21 when fifth at Mizusawa over 1300m. Likely improver with strong prospects.
