NUM	TIME	COMMENT
1	09:50	Maiden Race 1200m DOUX AMOUR (2) made an encouraging debut last time out, finishing 2 lengths from the winner in third over 1200m at this track. Should improve sharply and this looks a nice race. CHIGIRI (5) produced a nice effort on debut in better company last start over 1200m at this track when second, beaten 1.5 lengths. Has plenty of upside so a big run is anticipated. RAPID GROWTH (3) debuted two weeks ago when she finished fourth over 1200m at this track, beaten 5 lengths. Expected to be right there at the business end. SUSPENSE QUEEN (4) didn't do a lot on debut two weeks ago, finishing 10 lengths from the winner in sixth over 1200m at this track. Will take a lot from that experience. Anticipating a better performance.
2	10:25	Maiden Race 1000m TAMAMO ALTAIR (12) made progress last time out, finishing 5 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1000m at this track after being prominent at the bend. Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake. MARINO ROUGE (3) is a genuine type with five minor placings from seven starts this prep. Continued the trend at the most recent appearance when third over 1000m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. ROCKET HOME RUN (9) is yet to break through in five runs. Finished sixth at his last appearance over 1400m at Tokyo Dirt on May 25. Cannot be ruled out in this suitable assignment. FORT BOYARD (8) finished 9 lengths away in sixth at his last appearance over 1000m at this track on June 9. Can improve.
3	10:55	Maiden Race 1800m SUN URIEL (13) stuck on well to finish second last start over 1800m at this track, beaten one length when fresh from a spell as favourite. In a suitable race and can find the winner's circle. OMEGA IMPERIAL (9) is a four-start maiden who returned last time and finished fifth at Niigata over 1800m, beaten 3.5 lengths. Improvement to come and this is his chance to break through. ORANGE DANCER (15) returned last time with a solid third at this track over 1800m. Hard to beat in this suitable race. REGINA COELI (5) finished sixth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1800m at this track, beaten 2.5 lengths. Capable of featuring prominently.
4	11:25	Maiden Race 1700m STAR GET (1) finished second last time out over 1700m at this track, making it four career minor placings. Has weighed at both tries over this distance. Should enjoy a good run just off the speed and looks sure to run well. HATENABITO (3) is a maiden with two minor placings to his name. Could not improve on that record when resuming last start, winding up in ninth over 1700m at this track. Was in the placings at his only other second-up run. Fitter and looks sure to play a big role. ECORO BLADE (9) finished third last time over 1700m at this track when resuming from a spell, beaten 9 lengths. In the right race and is one of the big hopes. TETRAD (11) improved last start to finish third over 1700m at this track. Has his share of ability and is a top-three prospect.
5	12:15	Newcomer Race 1200m ENDLESS SUMMER (5) is on debut for the Yuki Uehara stable. Two-year-old colt by Al Ain from Coquerelle. Expected to go well, with betting a key indicator. SHADOW CASTLE (6) is a son of Isla Bonita from the Gr 1 winner Furia Azteca who makes his debut. Profiles nicely for this and bold showing expected. DEKOPIN (8) is on debut for the Issei Murata stable. Two-year-old colt by Tower Of London from Serenata. Must be kept safe, particularly if there is a market lead. MOZU NANA STAR (2) is a two-year-old filly on debut from the Yahagi yard. By Mozu Ascot from Grand Prix Angel. Pay to watch for any positive betting moves.
6	12:45	Newcomer Race 1000m LUX SPEI (1) is a first starter by Best Warrior from Merryweather who has produced a high percentage of winners-to-runners. Should enjoy a nice run from this draw and is ready to make an immediate impact. FLASH POINT (9) is a nicely bred two-year-old filly lining up for the first time. By New Year's Day from Admire Fukky who has produced plenty of winners. Should be thereabouts despite an awkward draw. DIVIN CADEAU (11) is appearing for the first time. By Shanghai Bobby and is out of the Miya stable. Watch for a betting push. SAFFRON KIRARA (10) is facing the starter for the first time. By Four Wheel Drive and hails from the Kitade stable. Worth watching for a betting push.
7	01:15	Allowance Race 2000m STELLA CROWN (4) has sound form this time in and turned in an eye-catching run to finish fourth at this track last time. Tackles the same trip here and looks a top winning chance. MONT BLANC MINORU (2) ran below expectations when fresh from a spell at this track over 2600m last time, finishing fifth and beaten 6 lengths. Faces an easier assignment so he is sure to be prominent. MY NOIR (6) closed last campaign with back-to-back placings, the last of which was at Kokura four-and-a-half months ago. Expected to be competitive. NOBLE SKY (8) finished third last start at the first run back from a spell over 2000m at this track when he worked home well, beaten 1.1 lengths. This is the right race and can find winning form.
8	01:45	Allowance Race 2400m ARMALCOLITE (8) was too good for a maiden field last start over 1900m at Kyoto Dirt, scoring by a neck. Took a while to break the ice but there is no reason he cannot get the job done again. CROSS THE RUBICON (9) resumes. Didn't make an impact at his only run last prep on March 10 finishing tenth and beaten 15 lengths over 2400m at Nakayama Dirt. Should park just off the speed. Expecting a bold showing if near his best. SATONO RAISE (10) ran below expectations when fresh from a spell at Tokyo Dirt over 2100m last time, finishing eighth and beaten 15 lengths. Well placed to bounce back. FRONTAL JEDI (2) lines up for the first time since March 10. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 2400m at Fukushima Dirt. Can make his presence felt.
9	02:15	OSHAMAMBE TOKUBETSU 1200m NAMURA ROSEMARY (9) turned in a fine effort to score by 2.5 lengths at today's track and distance when resuming from a spell last start. Needs to be at her best to beat this field but she deserves plenty of thought. FLYING BLADE (4) resumes today after filling a minor placing at his only appearance last prep at Kokura over 1200m on February 24. Goes well over this trip, filling a placing at all six starts, including a win, and shapes as a key contender. MIDNIGHT LUSTRE (2) is high on confidence after scoring by half a length over 1400m at Tokyo last time out. Has the speed to be prominent. Sure to be competitive. TRAPEZISTE (7) resumes from a spell of 12 weeks. Has filled a minor placing at both first-up runs. Definite top-three chance.
10	02:50	HOKKAI HANDICAP 1800m TAIKI LAUGHTER (2) made a big run from near last on the turn and just missed last Sunday when a long neck away in third at this track over 2000m. Sure to feature again on the quick back-up. ERATO (3) scored an impressive win by 3 lengths when resuming from a spell last time out over 1800m at this track. Has a strong record at the trip and can go on with it. TEIDE (9) resumes. Didn't make an impact at his only run last prep on February 17 finishing sixth and beaten 5 lengths over 1800m at Tokyo. Has found a suitable race and is worth including. WISTERIA RIVER (6) improved last time out, finishing 1.3 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1800m at this track. Has his share of ability and is a top-three prospect.
11	03:25	TVh HAI 1200m Grade 3 placegetter CRI D'AME (6) continues to race well with a win two back at Fukushima Dirt before finishing 0.8 lengths away in third last time over 1000m at Niigata. Drawn to enjoy a nice trail just off the pace. Best form puts him right in this. A SHIN EIGHT (7) lifted strongly but just failed to pick up the winner when fresh from a spell last start over 1200m at this track. Will strip a lot fitter this time around. Anticipating a big run again. ALLURING VIEW (3) returned from a spell two months ago when she was beaten 3 lengths into seventh over 1200m at Kyoto. Has a fair record when second-up, including two top-three finishes. Nicely placed to take this out. DOVER HAWK (10) finished third last time over 1200m at this track when resuming from a spell, beaten one length. Placed to advantage and can run another bold race.
12	04:05	Allowance Race 1700m WAY TO GO (8) didn't do a bad job to finish a neck away in second last start over 1700m at this track, coming from next to last at one stage. That followed a first-up win at Kyoto Dirt. Major player again. EDEL (5) finished third when resuming from a spell last start over 1700m at this track. Sparingly raced filly who is perfectly placed to score. NEVERMORE (11) broke her maiden last start over 1700m at this track when resuming, scoring by 2 lengths. Re-unites with Fujioka who was on board last start. Must be respected now that the penny has dropped. MODEL HUNT (6) returned from a spell two weeks ago when she was in the firing line on the corner before being beaten 6 lengths into sixth over 1700m at this track. Strips fitter and can improve.
