Race 1 1400m
NEUNG RUTILE (11) doesn't win very often but ran a nice race last time out over 1500m at this track, finishing second and beaten half a length after being in contention on the turn. Likely improver with strong prospects. COSMO NASHVILLE (3) was well fancied last start over 1400m at this track when third. Winning rider Takahiro Imai sticks. Expecting a bold showing. K'S HERMY (8) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing fourth at this track. Will enjoy a drop in class so she is a major player. TABEZAKARI (12) broke his maiden six starts back and has not been far away since. Should park just off the speed. Solid claims on best form. |

Race 2 1500m
MEISHO SUEHIRO (4) finished just half a length from the winner in second last start over this track and trip, after racing in the leading division. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot salute. MANNO DUET (7) turned in a decent effort last start to finish second . Likely improver with strong prospects. SURVIVAL NINE (11) battled on well to hold second last start, beaten a length. Nicely placed to find winning form. YAMORI ATSUMARE (8) made progress last time out. Nicely placed to feature in the placings. |

Race 3 1500m
A SHIN GAUDI (2) is a genuine type with three minor placings from three starts this campaign. Produced another good performance at his most recent run when second. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. LOVE LEGAL (6) last appeared five weeks ago over 1800m at Monbetsu when he finished fifth. This is his first run for the Akiko Okita stable. Solid chance for the new barn. HAGIBIS (9) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago at this track. Safely held last time out when fourth. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. Z THUNDER (7) has been in the market at his last couple of starts since resuming but hasn't made an impression. Expecting improvement. |

Race 4 1500m
TAIKI VIER LIEBE (3) raced on the speed last start and battled on well but found one better here. Katsuto Maruno stays aboard. Among the leading chances. LAZHWARD LAPIS (12) finished fourth at her last appearance over 1500m at this track on November 26. Rates highly in this field and can turn things around. SWEEP REGINA (10) is yet to fill a placing in two runs since resuming from a spell be should be nearing a peak effort now and is capable of sharp improvement. KASUMIZUKI (1) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third here. Is another who is in the mix. |

Race 5 1500m
LOGI SCREEN (7) finished fifth last time out over this track and trip. Lines up well here and a big run expected. TERUKEN REN JOY (2) opened this prep last start with a second here. Ideally placed and can play a major role. SOUND JACKAL (8) ran well below expectations last time when fifth. Can do much better this time. SKILL HUNTER (9) is back after a break of six months. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings here. Makes appeal. |

Race 6 1500m
SATONO PATHOS (1) travelled just behind the leader before taking over and scoring a determined win here last time. Going well and should give a bold sight again. COSMO QUEEN BEE (9) recorded a strong on-pace win here last time. In great form and is well-placed to feature again. MEISHO FUSO (11) did a great job to score by a length over this course and distance last start in a far better run. Nicely placed to play a pivotal role. GAURA THUNDER (4) pushed forward from a wide draw last time and sat just off the lead, eventually drawing away to score here. Commendable record at this trip with a win and three minor placings and is among the main hopes. |

Race 7 1400m
TEREVAKA (11) was prominent on the corner and battled on well to finish third last start here as favourite. Has her share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. BRILLO DORADO (4) has progressed nicely in his last couple of runs. Finished third at this track two starts back then landed the prize by a neck last time out here. Masaaki Ohata scored on him last time and retains the ride. Meets a stronger field but he is up to the task. T O EMERALD (7) could only manage seventh two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better at Kochi after being in the firing line on the bend. Has her share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. PARTIDA (9) hasn't been far away lately, last time out finishing just 2 lengths back in fourth over 1500m at this track. Deserves to break through and is too good to ignore. |

Race 8 1500m
VERY PROUD (4) recorded a strong maiden win over this track and trip last time, getting there by 3 lengths. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Shaping up nicely and a bold showing is expected. LOVE KRASE (3) is a last-start winner two weeks ago, scoring by half a length over 920m at this track. Sharp rise in trip but is worth following up. PADO (2) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at this track, finishing second and only a head. Finds a tougher race but he has the ability to test this field. NANGOKU DREAM (11) turned in a decent effort last start to finish second. Likely improver who looks sure to play a big role. |

Race 9 1500m
EARL OF KENT (9) was in a different class last time with a dominant all-the-way win at this track over 1400m. Has a strong record here, including four wins. Right in this. RABION AZUL (11) doesn't win out of turn but ran a nice race last time, finishing third and beaten 1.5 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. MEIKUN (10) is back after a break of eight months. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1000m at Monbetsu. Worth thought. MOZU MASANYAN (4) returned from a spell two weeks ago when seventh here. Fitter this time and deserves safe keeping in the placings. |

Race 10 1700m
HUNKSTER (5) has put together a couple of wins at this course, the latest on November 21. Goes up a rung or two but he is worth serious consideration. KAFUJI JAVA (8) went forward last start and proved too strong, getting home comfortably. Finds a tougher race but a win is not out of the question. UP SHOGUN (9) was sent out favourite last time and scored. Has three wins here. Seigo Tsukamoto who has two wins when partnering stays on. Certainly one to consider. J L HARBOR (6) brings the right form to the table and generally goes well here with a win and three minor placings from four tries. Must be respected. |

Race 11 1700m
YOSARI (9) is a talented galloper who scored at Kasamatsu last time and is unbeaten after four runs. Extra trip suits and on recent form will go close again. MIMOSA NO KISETSU (10) is in top form, most recently recording a win by a nose over 1500m at this track to make it two on the bounce. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Best figures should see him run well. ASTRA BIANCO (11) showed good early speed over 1500m at this track last time and went on to salute comfortably. Should be prominent in the run again despite the awkward gate. Will be in this for a long way. FLEUR DE LUNE (8) comes here following a win over two weeks ago, getting home by 3 lengths. Well placed and likely to feature. |

Race 12 920m
MIKANO VENUS (2) turned in a fine effort to score dominantly at this track and distance when first-up from a break last start. Facing a tougher assignment but she is worth serious consideration. BEAR SHOT (8) was a determined maiden winner last time out, scoring by a head here. Looks well placed and she cannot be discounted. TAKE NOTICE (3) doesn't win out of turn but ran a strong race last time out, finishing a narrow second. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. HEMEL (4) got the prize two runs ago but was less impressive last time out when sixth. Likely improver with top-three prospects. |
