Race 1 1400m
GOMEZ (7) is the clear starting point after a four-length Kawasaki win as a well-supported favourite, and she maps to stay within striking range again. BLUE RADICAL (11) has the right recent profile to test her, but he was beaten six lengths by Gomez at Kawasaki three weeks ago and needs to turn that form around from a wide draw. TOSEN MEMORIA (8) resumes off a narrow Urawa second and brings a strong overall record, with her likely early speed important to the shape of the race. LUSCIOUS BALLAD (2) also resumes and has placed at the track and trip, though the maiden record keeps the confidence measured. NONSTOP GIRL (5) is harder to recommend on the win after a heavy defeat, but her broader place record keeps her in the minor mix. |

Race 2 1400m
KYOEI ART (7) brings the clearest winning profile after a Kanazawa 3yo A4 second, beaten a nose by Crimson Burst, following a 3yo B4 win over Dreamers. His distance record is also the best in the field, so he sets the standard. QUALITY CHOCOLAT (2) should give the race its shape from barrier 2 and her debut second at Kawasaki gives her natural improvement claims, though she must find a sharper turn of foot. TROPICAL BREEZE (3) resumes after an eight-month break, but her debut fourth had merit and she finished off in a manner that keeps her in the main discussion. LOVE MESSAGE (9) and IVY HARUICHI (4) have place claims on assessment, yet both need to improve sharply on recent beaten margins. |

Race 3 900m
FUKU BERGIA (2) gets the narrow call in a race made up entirely of debutants, with barrier two and the first-start second of half-sibling Fuku Ambition over 1000m at Funabashi giving her a sound 900m profile. UME CHAUZO (3) has perhaps the strongest stable indicators, with Naoyuki Akiyama showing 2 wins and 3 placings from 4 debut runners and a solid Gold Dream record, so he is a serious threat from barrier three. MINA STAR (4) brings the leading Kawasaki trainer and jockey combination, plus family debut pointers through Star Guts Man and Star President. DIANA SUMMIT (6) has the deepest winning family but must do it from the outside, while KURIGENO LADY (5) looks more a place chance. |

Race 4 900m
LIEN REGALIA (2) gets the first look in a Kawasaki 900m dirt dash built around debut profiles. His inside draw, Yamazaki first-starter place record and a family featuring Seven One Bio, a debut winner over 1000m, give him the clearest starting point. VIVIEN PALACE (4) is the main danger, with Hideo Kubo's 2 wins from 5 listed debutants and Naoki Machida aboard a strong combination, although her siblings were not sharp first time out. TENRYU SAIKO (7) has the deepest pedigree, with Gold Valley producing multiple winners and two city winners, but barrier 7 makes the start important. AKENO HIME (3) has a neat draw and a full sibling who debuted fourth at Kawasaki, while STAR ARCADIA (5) brings an excellent Asia Express/Juichi Tajima record into play. |

Race 5 1400m
ATHANASIA (1) gets the nod in a 1400m Kawasaki two-year-old contest where debut profiles carry the race. She has the inside barrier, Tsubasa Sasagawa booked, and Sakai Shinobu has a strong debut record with 3 wins and 5 placings from 9 starters. LEGENDE BIJOUX (2) is an obvious danger from barrier 2, with Naoki Machida riding and Yuya Yamazaki placing with 14 of 19 debut runners. DAINO EIKO (4) brings the strongest jockey angle through Ryo Novata, the leading track rider, while his family has produced winners around this distance range. GANAR IROHA (5) has a sharp trainer debut strike rate and profiles as a sound top-three hope. AYUTTHAYA (6) also has place appeal with Hiroyuki Mogi placing 4 of 7 debut runners. |

Race 6 1400m
WISE BLAZE (3) has the most compelling recent profile, building from a third to a neck second at Kawasaki and now landing third-up with consistent track-and-distance placings behind him. MEINER MONT BLANC (4) brings the strongest career record and is two from two at 1400m, though he resumes from a two-month break and has to transfer Nagoya form to Kawasaki. MITONO TEIO (6) maps best of the main chances, likely to race on speed after being beaten just under a length here first-up. SARASA CHARMING (11) improved to be beaten two lengths behind Riko Walleye and is a genuine danger if she holds that level. CIEL RISE (7) was well held when backed last time, so the 1400m query keeps him more in the place bracket. |

Race 7 1500m
MURIMURIKATATUMURI (7) sets the standard after turning a short quote into a six-length Kawasaki win, and the way he quickened from a slim advantage suggests he has more to offer third-up. EWALD (5) is the reliable danger, placed in all three starts and close enough behind Lauro Campione and Black Lizard to demand respect, though he still has to convert those placings into a win. BLACK LIZARD (2) returns from a two-month break after leading throughout to beat Ewald here and maps to be prominent again from barrier two. SIENA SHANGRILA (6) won last start and adds further pressure near the speed, while GINGER HOPE (4) has a prior Kawasaki win but must rebound from a plain latest run. |

Race 8 900m
ROCK MY SOUL (11) sets the standard on exposed 900m form, having won here two back before leading again and finishing second to King Sukeyo as an odds-on favourite. The wide draw means he still has work to do early, but his Kawasaki track-and-distance record gives him the most reliable profile. ACTION BRIQUET (10) is the obvious danger after beating No Side Girl by nine lengths here as an odds-on favourite, although she must confirm that spike against stronger pressure. GIGANTOMACHIA (7) keeps finding the money at this course and trip, but his lack of a win from 14 starts is the standing query. MARVELLOUS TIARA (2) was poor first-up over 1500m, yet the drop back to 900m brings her onto a proven winning distance. WHITE FUJI (12) went closest of the closers last start and is a place threat again. |

Race 9 1400m
IMMACULATE (12) has the most reliable recent profile, placing at his past two over 1200m at Funabashi and now arrives race fit, though the rise to 1400m and the wide barrier are the obvious tests. KEY FINE (5) brings the strongest established record, with two wins and eleven placings from 18 starts at the Kawasaki 1400m, and she should be prominent from the outset. LE JOUEUR (1) has not fired at his past two but draws to save ground and gets class relief, so he remains a genuine threat if he finishes off better. HIGH WILLHAYS (2) can use an inside draw and has a recent close fourth here, while MEISHO BONGOCHI (10) is the knockout place hope if he reproduces his narrow Funabashi second. |

Race 10 1600m
MEINER BOSS (5) is the top pick despite arriving off plain 3yo+ ALLOW form, because the class drop, weight relief and fourth-up profile give him his clearest chance for some time. The obvious concern is that he remains winless from 18 starts, so he still has to convert. MIYABI CRY (7) resumes from a spell with stronger local credentials, including two wins and one placing from five starts at Kawasaki and a narrow 2000m second before the break. VOGELWEIDE (8) has been below his best at Urawa, but his past 12-month record and jockey association keep him firmly in calculations. MUCHA SUERTE (3) maps to be positive after a narrow Funabashi second, though the drop from 1800m to 1600m is the query. ANUMATI CHEKO (2) is the place-value runner after closing off well last start and winning here two runs back. |

Race 11 900m
JOYFUL ROCK (12) sets the benchmark after leading and winning by three lengths at Kawasaki last time, beating Tsutsu Uraura and confirming he is effective at this 900m course. The wide barrier is the obvious map issue, especially with FAST ONE (11) also a natural leader drawn out, but both have enough speed to press forward. Fast One arrives in excellent overall form, having beaten Presto Gaudi at Funabashi as a prohibitive odds-on favourite, though she did tire late after controlling the race. KAZU GORTYS (1) brings stronger Open-grade references and the inside draw, but must turn around two plain efforts. MUUMUU (4) is the closer with a genuine chance if the leaders overdo it, while SHIGERU MACH (3) resumes with proven track-and-trip form and minor claims. |

Race 12 2000m
VALENTINE GIFT (4) sets the standard after turning his second-up run into a dominant Kawasaki win, and the fact he can lead from barrier four gives him a clear tactical platform at 2000m. FLUGEL KU (9) is the obvious danger, having fought hard in two recent placings and bringing a proven record at this trip, though he may have to work across from wider out. YUME DREAM (12) is knocking on the door after consecutive Kawasaki thirds over 1600m, but the rise to 2000m is the new test from a wide barrier. HORSE ONE (2) has strong Kawasaki and jockey figures and should be fitter third-up, with the distance rise the query. BREVA (8) has the right track-and-trip record and won by eight lengths before his long break, but race fitness is the unknown. |
