NUM TIME COMMENT
1 02:45 Race 1 1400m
AFRO GAL (2) was well supported on debut last start and turned in a strong effort to finish third over this track and trip. Likely improver who is expected to be in the finish. SNOWY SKY (3) met with solid support last start over 1400m at this track when fourth. Worth another chance. MIYABI ANTHEM (4) finished seventh at this track and distance at his last appearance three-and-a-half months ago. One to consider. G T KELLY (1) was in a rearwards position on the turn last time out before finishing down the track over 1200m at Ohi. Worth including in this suitable contest.
2 03:15 Race 2 1400m
SHINING LUKIA (8) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid second at this track over this track and trip after being in contention all the way. Will be handy in running despite the tricky draw. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. KITAKARA KITA DIA (4) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start at Urawa. Better placed this time and is one of the main hopes. BENINO RAVE (2) was in the money two starts back at this track but was unable to repeat the effort last time.

Meeting a deeper field this time but he is up to the challenge. FUERTE CORAZON (8) was well in the market on debut last time out and ran well but found a couple better. Leading player with plenty of improvement in store. WHITE FUJI (3) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell on October 7, finishing fifth over 1200m at Ohi. Now under the care of new trainer Sunao Yamada. One to consider. IASON (1) is back after a break of four-and-a-half months and looks best of the rest.

AIZUMI SAKURA (1) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third here after being in the firing line on the bend. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. BOLD POLICY (12) hit the frame two starts ago at this track but ran below par last time when seventh but only beaten 2.75 lengths. Can do a lot better.
7 05:45 Race 7 1400m

Likely improver with strong prospects. LEMON GRASS (2) went forward and proved too strong when resuming last time out. Drawn to take a nice trail just off the speed. Meeting a tougher field but on her best form she is one of the chief contenders. LALA ROIDESANIMAUX (10) has been a regular in the winners' stall of late including last start in dominant fashion over 900m at this track. Going up a level this time but he is up to the challenge. PARKOUR CHEKO (5) was prominent at the corner and finished second last start. Has the ability to mix it with them.
