Race 1 1400m
PICTURE CARD (7) raced on the speed from the outset last start and finished second, beaten 9 lengths, over 1300m at this track. Nicely placed to play a major role. MISS KATHARINE (9) did little and finished 11 lengths from the winner in ninth over 1300m at this track last start, a less impressive effort than her sixth at this track the run before. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. GOD IMPULSE (4) missed the placings two runs back then was always well out of his ground last start when 7 lengths away in fifth over 1300m at this track. Nicely placed to get the prize. SCHLEIFE (8) has been out of the winner's list for a long time but suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. |

Race 2 1400m
MIRACLE DREAM (7) is ready to win after another minor placing last start, finishing third over 1600m at this track. Has the ability to take this out. TOA NATALIE (10) didn't do a bad job when second last start after being in the firing line on the turn over 1300m at this track, beaten half a length. That followed a win at this track the start prior. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot make amends. QUELLE (5) finished 8 lengths from the winner in seventh last start over 1900m at Chukyo Dirt, an improvement on his tenth at Hanshin Dirt the run before. Perfectly placed and is sure to give this a mighty shake. SHIRONO KUMIKYOKU (3) is experiencing a long win drought, extended last start when sixth over 1300m at this track after she was well back on straightening. In the right race and should be about the mark. |

Race 3 1400m
BOLD STATE (7) stuck on okay last time over 1300m at this track last start after being prominent at the turn. Liked his first-up fourth at this track the run before. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. MUJIKO MUIHAN (1) made progress last time out, finishing 5 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1300m at this track after being prominent at the turn. Looks well placed so expect another big run. YES GO ON (2) finished eighth at this track and distance at her last appearance three months ago. Has found the right race and is worth including. TAIKI HONORED (4) ran below expectations last time at this track. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. |

Race 4 1400m
NAIMAMA (7) got the prize two runs ago at this track. Couldn't follow that up last time out when fourth over 1600m at this track, beaten 6 lengths. Has started two times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Enjoys a drop in grade so he is a major player. MIDNIGHT BIRD (2) is building towards a win with placings at his last two runs, the latest effort a second over 1300m at this track when beaten 5 lengths. Hard to beat once again. KURINO ORION (8) was safely held when eighth last time out over 1300m at this track, beaten 7 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. BAI YULAN (3) is coming off a last-start fifth, beaten 3.5 lengths, over 1300m at this track. Has a good record at this journey with three wins from eight starts. Hard to knock. |

Race 5 1400m
SHOW VALENCE (3) was safely held on the JRA circuit two back then appreciated the easier company last time when second over 1300m at this track. Well placed again and expected to feature in the finish. GREAT HIEN (12) has 12 wins and 12 minor placings from 28 races this campaign. Found a couple better last start at this track over 1400m after being prominent upon straightening. Needs to be at her best to beat this field but she is up to the challenge. AMAMITSUTSUKI (4) made progress last time out, finishing 2 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 1400m at this track. It doesn't get any easier but on her best form she is one of the chief contenders. IN HIS EYES (6) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a fourth over 1400m at this track after being up on the pace until straightening. Best figures measure up nicely. In the mix. |

Race 6 1400m
GHOST BUSTER (2) bounced back last start and landed the prize by 2 lengths as favourite over 1300m at this track. Finds a tougher race but another big run will not surprise. ARDORE (6) is a distance specialist who is ready to win after another minor placing last start, finishing third over 1600m at this track when he was always up in the leading division. Worth noting Shuji Akaoka goes aboard. Beautifully placed and is sure to be there at the finish. SUNRISE TITAN (9) pushed forward and was a determined winner by 0.8 lengths over 1300m at this track last time out. Will be in this for a long way. MATSURIDA CHOPIN (5) finished third last start over 1400m at Mizusawa, beaten 2.75 lengths. Will benefit from that outing. Capable of another bold effort. |

Race 7 1400m
FULL OF PRAISE (2) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by 30 lengths over 1400m at this track. Drawn to stalk the leaders. Taking on a better line-up this time but he deserves plenty of thought. PRIME LINE (6) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break but has further improvement to come and is a key runner. D'S MATE (4) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race and finished 6 lengths away in sixth last time out over 1000m at Funabashi. This is a nice drop in grade so she is perfectly placed to score. HAKKYOI (8) is capable of featuring prominently. |

Race 8 1400m
POINT FORWARD (11) is a four-time winner who has been at the top of his game of late, scoring by one length last time out over 1400m at this track. Races well here and is likely to run another big race. HANDEN KAISER (6) is resuming from a break of four-and-a-half months for a new stable after finishing 11th over 2500m at Nakayama Dirt at his latest outing. Goes well when fresh with a win and one minor placings from four starts. Among the winning hopes. OLD BLUFF (7) turned in a moderate run over this journey last time out, settling in a rearwards position and failing to come on when tenth over 1400m at this track. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. EEL TESORO (9) showed early speed from an outside draw last time then tired over the final stages. Should give a bold sight. |

Race 9 1400m
REWARD MERLIN (12) showed good early speed from the inside draw last time and led into the straight before faded out of it, finishing fourth over 1400m at this track. Expected to go close. AMMINO LEMON (11) was in the money two starts back at this track but couldn't back it up last time when seventh at this track over 1400m. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. A SHIN GEAR UP (10) was okay in sixth over 1400m at this track last start. Good fourth at this track the run before. Finds a nice race and can play a significant role. GHOST (2) was in the money two starts back at this track but was unable to repeat the effort last time when ninth. Can make amends. |

Race 10 1400m
METUS (12) has Taichi Nagamori going aboard after he was well held last time out in fifth over 1400m at this track. Should be prominent from the outset. Best form puts him right in this. MOZU LIFE SAVER (9) finished fifth, beaten 5.5 lengths, last time out over this course and distance after coming from an outside draw. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Will play a major role. NAVARONE (7) has not won for a long while. Last raced on April 5 when beaten 8 lengths into ninth at this track over 1400m. Finds a nice race and can get the job done. BRAVE TRY (4) was beaten 9 lengths into tenth in a 1400m contest at this track two weeks ago. Has his share of talent and is a top-three prospect. |

Race 11 1600m
GRAY STORM (2) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by 30 lengths over 1400m at this track. Will take advantage of the good draw. Meets some better types this time but another big run is on the cards. BOB'S YER UNCLE (9) is in top form, most recently recording a win by half a length over 1400m at this track to make it two in a row. Should park just off the speed despite the draw. Likely to feature. WIN YOUR SONG (7) has put together a couple of wins at this track, the latest on April 5 over 1400m when he got home by one length. Meeting a deeper field this time but he has the ability to mix it with them. MAIDO OKINI (6) knuckled down strongly to get within 1.5 lengths of the winner in third last start over 1400m at this track. Should be winding up late again. |

SOMETHING GREAT (4) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race in fifth last time out over 1300m at this track. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. SUGINO MAJESTY (9) was always well out of his ground at this track last start but easy to forgive and liked his fifth at this track the run before. Best figures measure up nicely. NEUER TAG (1) was in the money two starts back at this track but couldn't back it up last time when eighth, beaten 9 lengths, at this track over 1400m. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. TROLLTUNGA (6) finished third at this track two runs back but didn't measure up last time. Has his share of talent and can do a lot better. |
