NUM TIME COMMENT
1 02:40 Race 1 1000m
SARASA GO SIGN (8) is an eight-start maiden who finished fourth at his most recent appearance over 1000m at this track. Among the top chances in what looks a most suitable race. EIKICHI (10) made progress last time out, finishing second at the end of 1000m at this track. Nicely placed to play a pivotal role. BELLAGIO KAMUY (3) finished 12th when resuming two runs back then did a good job last start but found one better over 1000m at this track, beaten only one length. Looks well placed so expect another big run. HYPER FINE (1) is a two-start maiden who finished seventh when resuming from a spell last start over 1000m at this track. Will derive great benefit from that outing and deserves consideration.
2 03:10 Race 2 1100m

CAREER LADDER (2) was prominent from the outset on debut last start and held on well for third over 1000m at this track. Improver worth including.
4 04:20 Race 4 1000m
RIPE TRAUM (6) settled well off the pace last start then made steady ground to finish sixth over 1000m at this track. Nicely placed and is capable of taking this out.

6 05:30 Race 6 1600m
PHALANGE RING (5) finished third at this track two runs back but didn't measure up last time over 1600m at this track, finishing back in seventh.

GREAT STICK (2) sat on the pace last start until tiring to finish sixth over 1700m at this circuit. Must be included among the main hopes.

8 06:35 Race 8 1000m
PAI RATANA (1) recorded another minor placing last time out, finishing a head away in second over 1000m at this track when she was in the firing line all the way.

Hard to beat in this suitable race. LONGING DOLCE (9) is a five-start maiden who returned last time and finished fourth at this track over 1000m, beaten 1.75 lengths. Bold showing expected with added fitness this time. SHIYU BLACK (2) was in the money two starts back but couldn't back it up last time when seventh here over 1000m.

9 07:05 Race 9 1000m
NISHINO ENDEAVOR (5) had been racing well with two consecutive placings before last start managing only sixth over 1000m at this track. Better than the last effort - appeals this time.

CROWN JEWEL (7) showed good early dash last time out and led for most of the way before being claimed and finishing 4 lengths away in third over 1200m at this track. Sure to go well. DIA NO GOTOKU (4) was unplaced on turf over 1200m at Hakodate two back then again couldn't find the top-three on the same surface last time out, finishing ninth over 1500m at Sapporo. Worth following up back on dirt. VITORIA REZA (1) had been in sound form but last start she was safely held when seventh over 1200m at this track. Today's rider Masaaki Kuwamura has a decent record aboard this three-year-old filly so she should be given another chance. HABIBI (6) performed above expectations last time over 1200m at this track, finishing 1.0 lengths from the winner in third after starting at huge odds. Among the fringe chances.
11 08:10 Race 11 1600m
AGILE BLACK (9) recorded another success last time over 1700m at this track making it five straight wins this campaign. Strongly fancied last time and looks tough to beat again. STEEL DREAM (2) returns after a break of 12 weeks. Excels when fresh with three wins from as many starts including a win over 1700m at this track at the start of last prep. Likely to take beating. LILABAD (4) raced on the speed and kept going to score by half a length last time out over 1800m at this track. Drawn to enjoy a nice run just off the speed. Taking on a better line-up this time but he is up to the challenge. ALEXA (10) missed the placings two runs back then didn't do any better last start when 10 lengths away in ninth over 1800m at this track. Nicely placed to find some form.
