BEST HUMOR (9) managed to find the placings here two starts back before finishing fourth over 1500m at this track last start. Among the leading chances. ALBIS (2) missed the frame last start over 1500m at this track, finishing fourth. Finds a nice race and can figure in the finish. MAURITIUS AROMA (4) finished 13th at her last appearance over 1300m at Tokyo Dirt on May 10 after she got a long way back in the run. This looks a nice race so expect her to finish closer.
2 12:30 Race 2 1500m
TAGANO BEGINNING (6) did a great job to score by a neck over today's course and distance last start in a much improved run. Hard to beat again in this suitable race. LUMINOSO (5) turned in a good effort when narrowly defeated last time at this track over 1500m. Winning chance. BLASON ROYAL (2) was never in contention last start when 12th over 1500m at this track.

3 01:00 Race 3 1500m
TAGANO POSTMAN (1) was a determined maiden winner last time out, scoring by 0.8 lengths over 1500m at this track. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Aided by the rails draw and he is a key runner. METCHA HATTORI (2) finished out of the money when seventh in a 1500m contest at this track a week-and-a-half ago. Well placed and worth another chance. WILL POLIS (5) is on a quick back-up after she was beaten for early speed and safely held in eighth over 1500m at this track. Should be in the mix in this suitable race.

4 01:35 Race 4 1400m
MASAHAYA VOSS (6) has been safely held at his last couple of runs, the latest when 11th over 2400m at Kyoto. Rates on top on best figures and will appreciate this far easier company.

Finds a suitable race and can find the winner's circle. PEACEFUL WORLD (4) is back after a break of three-and-a-half months. Looking to emulate her win at this track at the beginning of last prep.

9 04:20 Race 9 1500m
PRECURSOR (9) met with solid support last start over 1700m at this track when fourth. This trip suits so worth another chance. ABSTRUSE (5) ran below expectations last time at this track, finishing eighth starting at $3.90. Faces an easier assignment and could be hard to beat.

Handy draw will assist and shapes as one to consider. MEISHO AYUKAZE (4) was responsible for a better run last start, finishing fourth over 1500m at this track. Nicely placed to find some form.
10 04:55 Race 10 1700m

SWITCHBLADE (3) produced another moderate effort last start when ninth over 2100m at this track. The engagement of Takahiro Imai is a positive move. Can figure in the finish this time.
11 05:25 Race 11 1500m
JAKO MUSUBI (8) was sent out favourite last time when fourth over 920m at this track. The extra journey should play into his hands. Finds the ideal assignment.

Anticipating a big run this time. IZA ONE (6) was comfortably accounted for when eighth last time out over 1400m after a win at the previous outing. In the mix.

One of the main contenders. ALL ROUNDER (4) started at $2.40 last time but could only manage fourth at this track over 1700m. Expecting a better run today.
