Race 1 1400m
DANON GRAY (7) resumes from a spell of five months. Could only manage to finish seventh at the latest run over 1400m at this track. Set to return in style. JO PATIO (1) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 4.5 lengths. Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake. VARIO (4) hit the frame two starts ago at this track but ran below par last time when eighth and beaten 12 lengths over 1400m at this track. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. ELUCIDATOR (2) returned from a spell two-and-a-half weeks ago when he was beaten 2.5 lengths into sixth over 820m at this track. Fitter and sure to run well. |

Race 2 1700m
SAKURA VIGUEUR (6) returned from a break last start with a less than impressive seventh over 1400m at this track after travelling back in the field from the outset. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. VOLTEGGIO (2) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 13 lengths into eighth. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. GALBANUM (5) is a four-year-old entire who is still a maiden after 24 starts but has been in the placings seven times. Failed to threaten when fresh from a spell last start, beaten 14 lengths into seventh over 1400m at this track. Sure to be competitive. ORENO SUGOWAZA (3) was beaten 20 lengths into tenth over 1400m at this track a week-and-a-half ago. Has his share of talent and is a top-three prospect. |

Race 3 1400m
GRAND ROSE (3) has not appeared since she finished second over 1400m at this track on July 23. Perfectly placed to score. ITEMAE BUFFALO (9) was out of the money first-up but has since placed two on end and looks close to a win, the latest effort a second over 1400m at this track. Great chance to break through. T O ROBINSON (5) last appeared when he finished seventh over 1700m at this track on July 3. Makes plenty of appeal. HANDEN LAURIER (7) finished eighth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1400m at this track, beaten 6 lengths. Nicely placed to take this out. |

Race 4 1400m
INJECTION (1) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 3.5 lengths. Has been in the money at each second up start. Tomohiro Yoshimura is a key engagement. Strips fitter and can find winning ways. ONE OF US (5) turned in an eye-catching run over 1400m at this track last time, ridden back before coming home with a powerful run to finish third. Will drift back but is expected to be in the finish again. TRAVOLGENTE (8) settled well back from a wide draw last time then wound up strongly to finish fourth over 1400m at this track. Well placed and is among the chances. YOSSHA (4) is close to a win after a string of minor placings, the latest when third over 1400m at this track. Best figures measure up and is sure to run well. |

Race 5 820m
AOYU STAR (7) won last start over 820m at this track, making it two victories from three appearances this campaign. Yoshiki Kamomiya who has two wins when partnering stays on. Sure to run well. ASCENDIA (9) was well supported last time out but after being in the firing line on the bend disappointed in finishing fifth over 1230m at this track, beaten 6 lengths. Among the top chances in what looks a most suitable race. IT'S MY BUSINESS (6) got home by 3.5 lengths last time out over 820m at this track. Has started two times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Kanta Inoue who has three wins when partnering stays on. One of the contenders. KAMBAR ATA (11) wound up strongly last time out to finish 1.3 lengths adrift in second over 820m at this track. Worth including. |

Race 6 1400m
FEEL HAPPINESS (4) turned in a fine effort to win by a neck at today's track and distance last start to maintain his good form of late. It doesn't get any easier but on his best form he is one of the chief contenders. MEIYU (8) is back after a break of 11 weeks. At the last run before the layoff he finished seventh over 1700m at Sapporo Dirt. Rates highly and is a strong chance to break through. T O PERSONAL (5) was comfortably accounted for when fifth last time out over 1400m at this track, beaten 5 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Finds a suitable race and can return to the winner's circle. NISHINO WIND (2) proved too strong two runs ago but couldn't follow that up last time out when eighth over 1230m at this track, beaten 16 lengths. Worth another chance. |

Race 7 1400m
BELLAGIO HARUKA (2) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing third when resuming last time out over 1400m at this track. Nicely placed to figure in the outcome. FLEURIR (5) has not appeared since she scored over 1230m at this track on July 17. Should be hard to stop. COCO CHAMPAGNE (9) was out of the money when resuming two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 1.75 lengths into sixth. Likely improver with strong prospects. DERMA SATURN (1) has been safely held at his last couple of runs, the latest when seventh over 2000m at Nakayama. Worth another chance in this easier assignment. |

Race 8 1230m
A SHIN JASPER (10) was flying with two wins in a row before being sent out favourite last time and finishing second over 1230m at this track. Expected to be in the finish again. MOZU REIRA COCONA (8) was comfortably accounted for when fourth last time out over 1400m at this track, beaten 6 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Meets some better types this time but another win is not out of the question. AKKESHI (4) started at $4.60 last time on the back of a win at this track two starts ago but was below his best, finishing fifth over 1400m at this track after being prominent at the corner. Hard to beat in this suitable race. LUX COLOGNE (6) lines up on the back of a 5 length fourth over 1400m at this track as favourite. Solid top-three hope. |

Race 9 1230m
EIFER MOBILE (3) has really found form lately, easily winning again last start over 1230m at this track. Should be involved in the finish. GIYU (2) resumed four weeks ago over 1230m at this track and was only beaten 1.75 lengths into sixth. The engagement of Yoshiki Kamomiya is a positive move. Fitter so expect a better run this time. DORITARU (11) finished third at this track two runs back but didn't measure up last time over 1230m at this track, finishing 2.5 lengths back in sixth after being prominent at the corner. Taking on a better line-up this time but he is up to the challenge. GOLD MIRE (5) turned in a fine effort to score by a nose at this track and distance last time out to continue his outstanding recent form. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. |

Race 10 1870m
ZIGGURAT (2) is a talented type who recently returned from a break and made it three straight wins, scoring by 7 lengths over 1700m at this track. Comfortable winner last time and expected to be in the finish again. PLAISIR MINORU (3) has been in great form with two placings in succession, most recently when beaten a neck into second over 1700m at this track when he was prominent throughout. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. BLACK BUTLER (4) turned in a modest performance when fifth last time out over 2000m at Saga, beaten 9 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Has started two times at this course and distance and is yet to miss the placings. Perfectly placed and is sure to be there at the finish. DENTAL FLOSS (6) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1700m at this track, beaten 7 lengths into fourth. Well placed to bounce back. |

Race 11 1400m
FUSENO AURORA (1) scored at this track last time out with a neck to spare over today's journey. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including three wins and four placings. Can go on with it. PINK MARGARITA (10) is closing in on a win, the latest a narrow third at this track but starting to prove costly. Solid run again last time and among the leading chances. KIICHI AUTUMN (6) finished 10 lengths back in fifth over 1700m at this track last time out after a gutsy win the start prior. Wataru Hirose who has scored on him seven times retains the mount. One of the contenders. MEISHO KOHOKU (11) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 46 lengths into sixth. No surprise to see him in the frame. |

SMILE MONT BLANC (5) finished fourth last time out as favourite over 1230m at this track, beaten 1.5 lengths. Has a solid record here including two wins and three minor placings from six outings. Key runner. COPA KATSU (2) started at $6 last time and ran below expectations, finishing sixth and beaten 5 lengths at this track over 1400m. Best figures measure up nicely. Sure to run well. KOHILO (11) was well beaten in better company two back then tackled an easier race last time when a 1.5 lengths winner over 1400m at this track. In winning form and expected to run well again. SCALLYWAG (8) proved too strong two runs ago but was not as effective last time out when fourth over 1400m at this track, beaten 5.5 lengths. Should be thereabouts. |
