NUM TIME COMMENT
1 12:00 Race 1 1500m
LOULOUDI (4) pushed forward from a wide draw last time out and found the front, holding the lead for most of the way and sticking on well to finish second over 1500m at this track. Will go forward again and looks tough to beat. HEIMLICH KAISER (9) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a strong race last time out, finishing fourth and beaten only 2 lengths over 1400m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. MAONO BREEZY (3) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 3 lengths when fifth over 1400m at this track two weeks ago after being prominent at the turn. Likely improver with strong prospects. TOUCH THE CEILING (10) ran below expectations last time at this track, finishing seventh and beaten 8 lengths. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including two wins. Nicely placed to bounce back.
2 12:35 Race 2 1500m
HATTO MERRILY (4) scored two back at this track but was below her best last time when fifth over 1400m at this track after being in contention on the bend. Has a good record at this course and distance, including a win and three minor placings. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. NOEL (2) got the prize two runs ago at this track. Safely held last time out when fourth over 1400m at this track, beaten 5 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can return to the winner's circle. BEYOND THE SCENE (1) fought on well for third last start over 1400m at this track, making it two minor placings in a row. Has a solid record here at the distance with four wins and three placings from nine tries. One to consider. FIERE GIRL (8) ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 1400m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Best efforts measure up so capable of another big run.
3 01:15 Race 3 1400m
GREAT MOON (4) has been in great form recently, the latest effort a dominant win by 7 lengths over 1400m at this track. Likely to be in the finish again. HAKUSAN ANTARES (7) showed good early pace over 1400m at this track last time and kept going to score by a neck. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. DAPHNIS (5) turned in a strong run two starts ago at this track then failed to back it up over 1500m at this track last time, beaten 4 lengths into fifth. Looks better placed over this shorter trip so worth forgiving. CRAPE MYRTLE (9) progressed nicely last time out to finish just half a length from the winner in second over 1400m at this track. Another forward showing is anticipated.
4 01:50 Race 4 900m
OR MIRABELLE (4) is yet to fill a placing in two runs since resuming from a spell, the latest when fourth over 1500m at Nagoya. Should be peaking now and is ready to win. T O TORNADO (6) resumes in a similar race to his last run nine weeks ago when he scored by 0.8 lengths. Should be hard to stop. VIOLA DANCER (10) is racing well including a last start fourth over 1400m at this track. Good chance to break through.

5 02:30 Race 5 900m

7 04:30 Race 7 1400m
OKOJU (10) hasn't featured at her last two runs, the latest when 8 lengths away in 13th at Fukushima Dirt. Forgive the last couple in tougher company. Hard to beat this time. SANONO SALVADOR (8) started at $4.20 last time and ran below expectations, finishing sixth and beaten 5.5 lengths at this track over 1500m. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. TOA KAFU (3) doesn't win out of turn, scoring just two times from 23 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when fifth over 1500m at this track, beaten 4.5 lengths. Placed to advantage so expect a big run. SERAPHINITE (2) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 4 lengths into seventh. The engagement of Taiga Kurihara is a positive move. Better than recent efforts suggest.
8 05:05 Race 8 1400m
BE MYSELF (7) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing third last time out over 1500m at this track. In a suitable race and can figure in the finish. MY LOVE JACK (3) was always forward and boxed on to finish third over 1500m at this track last time. Should be poised just off the lead. Best figures should see him run well.

HAKUSAN TSUKIMITEI (5) is a distance specialist who has been in great form with two placings in succession, most recently when beaten 3 lengths into second over 1500m at this track when he was prominent throughout. Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake. JUNE NO LOOK (2) proved too strong two runs ago at this track. Couldn't follow that up last time out when fourth over 1500m at this track, beaten 6 lengths after being in contention on the corner. Finds a more suitable contest and can rediscover winning form. ROSE PERIOD (6) displayed plenty of early toe over 1700m at this track last time and went on to score by 2 lengths. Finds a tougher race but another big run will not surprise. ONUSHI NANIMONO (4) was in contention on the bend and finished third last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 5 lengths. Nicely placed to play a major role.
10 06:15 Race 10 2100m
TABLAO (3) went forward last start and proved too strong, getting home by 5 lengths over 1400m at this track. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he cannot be underestimated. RYUNO BREAK (11) is racing well, scoring two back at this track before finishing 2.5 lengths from the winner in second last time over 1700m at this track. Has a strong record here, including five wins. Likely to feature. NAMIDANO KISS (8) was well in commission last start over 2000m at this track when third, beaten 2.5 lengths.

MEISHO GORUSHI (10) finished out of the money two starts back then he got a long way back and was beaten 12 lengths when tenth in a 1500m contest at this track a week-and-a-half ago.
