Maiden Race 1400m
AMP IT UP (12) was well fancied on debut last start and was not far off the mark, finishing second and beaten 1.3 lengths over 1200m at Nakayama Dirt. Gave a sight when tried to lead throughout but found one better. Likely improver who should go well. HERITAGE BLOOM (10) returned last time with a solid third at Nakayama Dirt over 1200m. Has hit the line well at both runs and looks suited by the extra ground. Ready to go a couple better. DONA SCHON (5) has not raced since she finished third on debut over 1400m at this track on June 21. Got home late on debut then put away again. Has definite claims. COPANO EIDAN (1) did a fair job on debut last time out, finishing 3.5 lengths from the winner in third over 1200m at Nakayama Dirt. Can figure in the finish. |

Maiden Race 1800m
LAUGHTERLINES (9) was well supported on debut last start and turned in a strong effort to finish second over 1800m at Niigata. Got back but charged late and just missed. Improver who can get off the mark. COSMO CLASSIC (2) missed the frame on debut then progressed nicely at his second outing when in contention on the bend, finishing a neck from the winner in second at the end of 1800m at Nakayama. Drawn to give a sight again. MOON GRAIL (3) ran fourth at his latest appearance over 1800m at Nakayama, clocking in 0.9 lengths from the winner as favourite. Should run very well. RED GERBEROY (7) did a fair job on debut last time out, finishing 2.5 lengths from the winner in fifth over 1600m at Nakayama. That was in a Newcomer and in maiden grade here. Improver worth including. |

Maiden Race 1400m
Very moderate maiden. ADMI (14) started at $7.10 last time and ran below expectations, finishing tenth and beaten 12 lengths at Nakayama over 1600m after being in contention on the turn. Had to jump from a wide gate and was first try at the mile. Best figures measure up nicely and worth another chance back to 1400m. COLOR OF SUCCESS (9) also ran below expectations last time at Nakayama Dirt, finishing 12th and beaten 13 lengths starting at $3.90. The debut figures was far better. Another who can atone. DAISHIN LEICESTER (7) was solid on debut last start when beaten 8 lengths into seventh over 1800m at Nakayama on September 7. Will go forward and shapes as one to consider. REVENDAL (12) stepped out for her debut over 1400m at Niigata back on July 26 and finished seventh, beaten 8 lengths. Will take a lot from that last run and is worth following up. |

Maiden Race 3000m
PLATINA TREASURE (3) returns from a 120-day spell. Concluded the last prep with a minor placing in a maiden steeplechase (3000m) at this track, beaten a nose. Has run well in both jumps starts. Expected to go close. FABER (14) followed up a poor run at jumps debut two starts back with a much improved second in a maiden steeplechase (2880m) at Nakayama last start. Heading there right way and one of the main contenders. FESTIVE BEAM (5) missed the frame two runs ago in a maiden steeplechase (2770m) at Fukushima. Did a better job last time when he finished second in a maiden steeplechase (2880m) at Nakayama. In the mix. Has improved each of three jumps starts. Can get off the mark here. NATURE SHIP (9) returns from a 120-day spell. Concluded the last campaign finishing fifth in a maiden steeplechase (3000m) at this track, beaten 9 lengths. Yet to win over the obstacles from four tries. Sure to be primed and expected to be thereabouts. |

Allowance Race 1400m
SHIHORIN (13) didn't make an impact at her last run before a break, finishing seventh over 1800m at Hakodate. Hasn't scored when fresh from a break but generally races well with two minor placings. Leading rider aboard and looks hard to beat. LAKE CRESCENT (1) did a good job when returning from a break last time at Nakayama, finishing second and only 2.5 lengths from the winner at the end of 1600m after being in contention on the turn. Best figures measure up and drawn much better. Sure to run well. LOVELY GIRL (16) missed the placings two starts back when resuming then ran a better race and finished 1.2 lengths away in fifth last time out over 1400m at Niigata after being prominent at the turn. Yet to miss the frame in two starts over this course and distance. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. BUMBLEBEE (6) turned in a fair effort at this track over 1600m at his last run three-and-a-half months ago, finishing sixth. Will take catching here. |

Allowance Race 1800m
JAZZALDIA (9) is a progressive three-year-old filly who resumes from a break of three-and-a-half months, her last appearance being a win over 1600m at this track. Off the mark with a strong win last time and expect a bold showing fresh. BEST SCENE (2) returns from a layoff of ten weeks. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1800m at Fukushima. Sure to make his presence felt. GARAKU (4) booted up from the inside draw to lead last start and was there on straightening before being claimed and finishing a head away in third over 1800m at Nakayama. Speedy type drawn well and will give a bold sight again. KAZANLAK (8) is a promising type who hasn't raced since finishing 7 lengths away in eighth over 1600m at Niigata on August 2 which was the only run of that prep. Has scored first-up from a spell before. Resuming in easier company and is not to be underestimated. |

TVK SHO 1400m
CULAVAMSA (5) is a promising galloper who saluted at her only run last prep four months ago over 1400m at Hanshin. This toughest test but has upside and drawn well. Expect a bold showing. POWER SNATCH (12) returned from a break last start with a modest fifth over 1400m at Niigata, beaten 2.5 lengths. Has a terrific record here with two wins and one minor placings from three starts. Should park just off the speed. Will give a great sight. SUCCESS CALLA (7) made a strong late bid only to just miss when first-up last start over 1400m at Niigata. Should tighten right up following that outing. In the right race and is a winning hope. FOOD MAN (13) is a promising type who hasn't raced since finishing 2.5 lengths away in eighth over 1400m in Listed grade at Kyoto on May 11 which was the only run of that prep. Has a strong fresh record including a win and one minor placings. Should camp just off the leaders. One of the better hopes. |

TERRIFIC PLAN (2) is back at the races for the first time since July 13. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1800m at Kyoto Dirt. Has a win and three minors from four tries fresh. Strong chance to kick the campaign off on the right note. ARGO NAVIS (6) ran below expectations when fresh from a spell at Chukyo Dirt over 1800m last time, finishing seventh and beaten 3 lengths. Second-up winner and won only try course and distance. Well placed and expected to do better. VENDOME (5) returns after a spell of four months. Looking to emulate his win at this track at the beginning of last prep.

THE MAINICHI OKAN 1800m
SATONO SHINING (10) is a promising type who was fourth over 2400m in the G1 Tokyo Yushun (Japanese Derby) at this track on June 1. Has a very strong record first-up including two wins. Resumes in easier and is the one to beat in this. LEBENSSTIL (9) resumes. Didn't make an impact at his only run last prep, finishing seventh over 1600m at Hanshin. Record here is impressive with two wins from four starts. Has two wins fresh and likely to feature on best figures. CERVINIA (6) is back from a spell of three-and-a-half months.

Was runner-up in this last year. Has a consistent second-up record and worth another chance. |

Allowance Race 1600m
FARIZA (14) scored a dominant victory at Niigata Dirt over 1800m at her latest appearance on August 2. Promising filly who will be better for the break. Sure to make her presence felt. ARGENT (1) is a promising galloper who saluted at his only run last prep five months ago over 1600m at this track. Was unplaced on debut but unbeaten in three runs since. Drawn to go forward. Expecting a bold showing. GRACE THE CROWN (9) turned in a modest performance when fourth last time out over 1800m at Niigata Dirt, beaten 5.5 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Has the class to return to the winner's list. SMART SPEAR (2) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1600m at Chukyo, beaten 4 lengths. Fitter so expect a better run this time. |
