Race 1 1300m
RIKEA BOLERO (2) is a well-related two-year-old gelding making his first appearance at the races. By Mischevious Alex from Cross The Rachel who has produced some fine gallopers, including winners at black type level. Sure to be well-educated, being from the Mamoru Tanaka stable. Promising type who is ready to make an immediate impact. TOSANO SHUNRAI (5) is on debut for the Shinji Kudo stable. Two-year-old filly by Real Impact from One Of Queens. Serious contender, particularly if solid in the market. SMITH BAROWS (3) is facing the starter for the first time. By Kiseki and comes from the S Beppu stable. Watch for a betting push. DYNA VEIL (4) is on debut. By Novellist and comes from the Yoichi Miyaji stable. Worth watching for a betting push. |

Race 2 1400m
MEINER VISION (1) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing second last time out over 1400m at this track. Drawn to take a nice trail just off the speed. Enjoys a drop in grade so he is one of the main contenders. THREE ROSE (7) turned in a better run last time to finish third over 1600m at this track after being in the firing line on the corner. Looks well placed so expect another big run. BELLE VIOLETTE (10) lifted strongly but just failed to pick up the winner last start over 1400m at this track. Going up a level this time but she is good enough to play a major role. HOKULEA (4) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a fifth over 1400m at this track after being handy for much of the way. Likely improver who should be in the mix. |

Race 3 1400m
TESORINO (4) is a distance specialist who improved sharply on his sixth two starts back at this track with success over 1400m at this track two weeks ago, getting home by a nose. Goes up a rung or two but he is up to the task. NITTO RAIJIN (3) showed good early dash and raced on the speed last start before fading to finish 1.75 lengths back in fourth over 1600m at this track. Will be handy in the run and should prove hard to run down. TIGER WAGON (5) showed early speed from a good draw last time and led until they straightened, eventually finishing fifth and beaten 4 lengths over 1600m at this track. Another bold showing is expected. HIDENO BLUE SKY (8) missed the placings two runs back then didn't do any better last start when 76 lengths away in 11th over 1600m at this track. Better than recent efforts suggest. |

Race 4 1400m
AMBITIEUX (5) has put together a couple of wins at this circuit, the latest on June 14 over 1400m when she got home by 3 lengths. This doesn't look as hard so she is sure to prove hard to beat again. SUPER KITTY (7) showed good early muster and fought on to finish third last start over 1600m at this track. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. MISTERIO (9) returns from a spell. Finished second at this track and distance at his only appearance last prep three-and-a-half months ago. Commendable record at this trip with a win and five minor placings and is one of the prime contenders. SPICE UP (1) settled at the rear then stoked up nicely in the straight to finish fourth over 1600m here last time. Among the chances. |

Race 5 1300m
SPRINGER (1) is yet to fill a placing in two runs since resuming from a spell, the latest when tenth over 2400m at Kyoto after he was prominent at the corner. Should be peaking now and looks set to find best form. SHISHI (6) finished sixth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1400m at this track, beaten 2.75 lengths after being prominent at the bend. Nicely placed to find winning ways. BRICK BARN (4) looks close to a win, finishing in the placings at his last couple of runs including a third most recently over 1400m at this track when beaten 2 lengths. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Will give backers a great sight. PETAL BIJOU (8) ran well below her best last time over 1400m at this track, beaten 8 lengths into seventh at $4.70. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Not to be discounted. |

Race 6 1300m
COPANO HAMPTON (4) was an impressive winner last time over 1300m at this track, stalking the pace before lengthening nicely to score by 6 lengths. Going well and should give a bold sight again. WAKINO QUEEN (1) turned in a modest performance when third last time out over 1400m at this track, beaten 4 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake. MEISHO FUJITAKA (5) scored last start at this track to make it four wins from seven starts this campaign. Has a very good record here with four wins from five starts. Strong claims on his best form. WINDBLOWN (2) was in contention on the corner and finished second last start over 1400m at this track, beaten one length. Fitter for that run. Sure to be thereabouts. |

Race 7 1600m
WONDERFUL TODAY (9) has been racing well this preparation, scoring last start over 1400m at this track to make it three wins from four runs this time in. Has never missed the frame at this venue, including three wins. Bold showing expected. DIAMOND FUJI (7) showed good early speed and raced on the pace last start before fading to finish fourth, beaten 2.75 lengths, over 1400m at this track. Expected to be in this for a long way. VIADUCT (1) strode forward early last start from his wide draw and was never headed, scoring by a nose at this track over 1400m. One of the main contenders. SIEG SCHWERT (4) made progress last time out, finishing 2.75 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1400m at this track. Likely to hold the form and is a strong top-three prospect. |

Race 8 1600m
GLANZ ATEM (1) impressed last time with a 4 length win at this track over this journey. Has never missed the frame at this venue, including five wins. Will be hard to stop. BIG SHOW TIME (4) had been in great form winning two on end before missing the frame last time when eighth over 1400m at this track. Reunites with Shuji Akaoka who has a win when partnering. Expecting a bold showing. MEISHO SHIROGANE (6) wasn't far away last time out, finishing third over 1400m at this track. Won't be bothered by this longer journey. Poses a serious threat. KURINO DRAGON (11) produced a good run two starts back to finish second but disappointed last time when out of the placings at this track over 1900m after he had settled well back. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including two wins. Has the class to take this out. |

Race 9 1600m
MAGIC TOUCH (6) is ready to win after another minor placing last start, finishing second over 1400m at this track when he was in the firing line all the way. Has the ability to figure prominently. DEAR THEORY (10) showed early speed from a good draw and led until entering the straight last start, eventually holding on for third and beaten 2 lengths over 1900m at this track. Well-placed and will take running down. STORM VANGUARD (2) doesn't win very often but ran a nice race last time out over 1400m at this track, finishing third and beaten 1.75 lengths. Has the class to build on that encouraging effort last start. WAKUWAKU DREAM (7) was in contention on the bend and finished second last time over 1600m at this track when resuming from a spell, beaten 2 lengths. Will trim down second-up. Placed to advantage so expect another forward showing. |

Race 10 1600m
GALAPAGOS (2) started favourite when resuming but went under narrowly over 1400m at this track. Will appreciate the extra ground. Winning chance. DAORADAORA (7) has been in great form recently, the latest effort a dominant win by 4 lengths over 1600m at this track to make it six victories in a row. Steps up a level but he is capable of running another bold race. MEISHO KAZUSA (3) went fast early and went on to score by 2.5 lengths last time out over 1400m at this track. Will be up on the speed from the low draw. Goes up a rung or two but he is up to the task. CROWN SIHR (10) pushed forward from a wide draw last time and sat just off the lead, eventually drawing away to score by a head over 1600m at this track. Form at this distance is strong with four wins from six starts and has solid claims. |

Race 11 1300m
REAL CITY (3) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 4 lengths into fifth. Nicely placed to take this out. CUENCA (6) ran a strong second over 1300m at this track two runs back then was below his best last time over 1400m when sixth, beaten 6 lengths. Appeals back in trip this time so can atone. MARCHEN RISE (8) started at $7.10 last time and ran below expectations, finishing ninth and beaten 9 lengths at this track over 1400m. Likely improver with strong prospects. TODOIWA WIND (4) was in the money two starts back at this track but was unable to repeat the effort last time when 12th, beaten 42 lengths, at this track over 1400m. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. |
