Race 1 1000m
DAN STONE FORTE (5) sets the standard after successive Mombetsu placings, the latest a head second behind Dusty Miller as odds-on favourite. She still has to convert that consistency into a win, but her recent 1000m form is the cleanest reference in the race. SANYO TOPPAKO (7) has been beaten in both recent fifths, yet she has enough exposed form to improve in a race lacking depth if the drop in task brings her on. TAISEI ALLURE (1) is better judged on her earlier Mombetsu placings than her latest sixth behind Ba Schnell, with four placings from four tries at this track and distance a strong counterpoint. ZINDABAD (8) is the value danger after a one-length second to Afro Kero at huge odds, though she must prove that spike was no one-off after a five-week break. |

Race 2 1000m
BEST SKY (1) sets the benchmark after missing by just under a length behind Will Matic at Mombetsu when sent out a prohibitive odds-on favourite. The defeat is a small concern, but her broader profile is reliable, with three placings from four attempts at this track and distance. MAKAYENSE (7) is the obvious danger, having placed five times from six starts overall and again found one better last time behind Will Eiger. She has the stronger consistency line, though still has to convert it into a win. HELL EDGE ROAD (4) is harder to trust after finishing seventh, beaten just over nine lengths, but his previous fourth behind Ikor was good enough to keep him in the discussion. FENGMI (5) appeals as the value place-to-win upset chance after getting into third behind Will Matic at long odds, though she needs to prove that was a genuine turning point rather than a one-off spike. |

Race 3 1100m
VIVI CAMELLIA (2) appeals as the runner with the clearest winning platform after going under by only half a length to Light Beans at Mombetsu, despite being sent out at big odds. Her two placings from three starts, and two from two at 1100m, give her the most persuasive profile. MANA UILA (9) is the obvious threat: she was a beaten favourite when third to Light Beans, but had run second by a neck to Oryza Nova the start before and has placed three from three at this track and distance. LADY WARRIOR (5) also has a solid case after closing strongly for second to Alphonsina, beaten two lengths, and her three-start record suggests she is holding form well enough. RUBY GRASS (8) is next in line after making late ground for second to Davay Crystal, though the 1100m record remains a small query. The race looks centred on those four, with Vivi Camellia narrowly preferred over Mana Uila. |

Race 4 1200m
BOVENOP STAAN (8) has the most appealing profile among the main chances, with two placings from three starts and a last-start third behind Full Vogue after being sent out a well-supported favourite. The poor run two back is the blemish, but his Mombetsu 1200m record gives him a solid platform. FLOWER STELLA (11) returns from six weeks off and brings consecutive thirds, though she was beaten as a very short odds-on favourite last time and has the 1200m query to answer. KIND OF YOU (4) has been consistent enough this campaign and already has recent form around Bovenop Staan, but must turn a last-start fourth into something sharper. SEIRAN KUROFUNE (3) was the eye-catcher when second to Full Vogue and is proven at this track and distance, so she appeals as the best closer if the principals leave the door open. |

Race 5 1000m
FLARING BARON (8) looks the right starting point after a fifth to Good Time Ask that was better than the finishing position reads, closing off well after being beaten four and a half lengths. His prior third behind Macalas keeps the form line solid, and two wins at the Mombetsu 1000m give him the most rounded profile. MAX ISLE (12) is the obvious danger, unbeaten after scoring on debut from Sekitei Vivi, and she has already shown she can handle this course and distance under race pressure. SILVER RIDER (11) improved sharply when third to Tiffany Sienne last start and is aided by a stronger recent 12-month record than most of these, though the previous 1200m defeat remains a caution. JACK ROUGE (6) brings consecutive fourths and has been close enough to warrant respect, but the long-standing maiden record makes him a place-leaning winning chance rather than the main pick. |

Race 6 1000m
MOFUBUKI (7) deserves top billing after consecutive Mombetsu seconds, the latest beaten a neck by Excellen Winner over this trip when well found near the top of an open market. Her track-and-distance record gives the profile substance, although she has placed more often than won. AMMIRAZIONE (3) is the cleanest danger on consistency, having finished third at her past two runs, each time beaten a length and a half, and she has repeatedly held her form at this course and distance. ENGEL (8) is harder to read after finishing last behind Steel Amber, but the previous Mombetsu win over Tomoni Miru Hope was strong enough to keep her in the winning mix if she rebounds. MIWAKUNO HOSHO (5) comes through a nose second to Good Time Ask and has the sharpest last-start result of the quartet, though her broader profile still reads more as a genuine place chance than a runner to take short odds about. |

Race 7 1500m
EARTH J SONTE (6) sets the standard despite a mixed recent profile. His sixth over 1200m at Mombetsu had merit because he was beaten just over three lengths after making late ground from an impossible spot, and the return to a suitable distance gives him the clearest winning platform. COOL MAISON (8) is the main danger, having run third to Axis two back before a fifth behind Muscle Chummy when near the top of an open market, though the distance remains the question. TAKESHO KAISER (3) brings a sharper latest figure after finishing third behind Boules De Neige at big odds and notably beating Earth J Sonte home there, but he must prove the rise in trip is within range. SUMMER BRIDE (1) is the reliable place option after a Mombetsu second behind Muscle Chummy, with the query being whether she can turn consistent minor form into a winning performance at 1500m. |

Race 8 1800m
FULL VOGUE (1) sets the standard off a determined 1200m win at Mombetsu, where he gave away a start and still beat Seiran Kurofune by just under a length. The rise to 1800m is the obvious query, but his recent form is the strongest in the race. URANUS RING (8) is harder to line up after dropping out at Niigata when well found in betting, yet her debut fifth behind Zihuatanejo was sound enough to keep her prominent back in this grade. PARIKOTOPANANA (11) brings the most reliable local staying-style form, having placed over 1500m and 1600m at her past two, though she was beaten as a leading market chance last time. REVE DE LUNE (7) arrives off plain Chukyo form, but the class drop gives her a more realistic platform. Full Vogue is the one to beat, with Uranus Ring and Parikotopanana the main threats. |

Race 9 1700m
MINO BELL (1) has the most rounded profile of the main chances, coming off a second to Night Sailing over 1700m at Mombetsu and already proven at this track and distance. The margin was still six lengths, so he is not bombproof, but he has recent matchup edges over Ichi Ryuo and Riko Jupiter. ICHI RYUO (5) brings two straight thirds and closed off strongly last start, though the 19-start maiden record keeps the enthusiasm in check. RIKO JUPITER (6) was doing her best work late behind Night Sailing and has a recent Mombetsu win over 1200m to recommend her, with the 1700m still the key test. SUPERCHARGE (8) has been costly as favourite at recent runs, but three placings from three attempts at the Mombetsu 1700m keep him firmly in the each-way mix. |

Race 10 1000m
GARCON MANQUE (6) sets the standard after winning her past two at Mombetsu, most recently beating Trevena by a length over this trip. Her seven wins and one place from ten starts at this track and distance give her the strongest profile, and the Yuji Iwahashi partnership is well proven. TREVENA (8) is the main danger on consistency, having run third in 3yo+ A2 grade last start after being second to Garcon Manque as the odds-on favourite the run prior. The query is whether she can turn repeated placings into a win. MIDNIGHT GALE (2) brings a very reliable Mombetsu 1000m record and was beaten just under a length last start, so she has the substance to be right in the decision. TAKENO ROULE (4) adds depth, having beaten a neck in 3yo+ A2 grade after a 3yo+ B3 win, and her recent result over Trevena and Midnight Gale keeps her in the winning mix. |

Race 11 1200m
REPRESENT (1) sets the standard after back-to-back Mombetsu wins, the latest over this course when odds-on and too strong for Yamanin Passe. His perfect track-and-distance record makes him the runner the others must reach. KAMIWA MATTEIRU (3) is the logical danger: he was third behind Represent last time, has won three times at the course and distance, and has the profile to keep the favourite honest. LADY PYRO (9) comes through a stronger recent placing than the market expected, running second to Angel, and her long record over this track and trip gives her a genuine claims base. FENG MEILI (12) is harder to line up after a plain Niigata Dirt return, but her narrow 4yo+ ALLOW win two starts back keeps her in the discussion if she rebounds sharply. |

Race 12 1200m
BEST GREEN (7) gets top billing on the strength of a two-length Mombetsu win as odds-on favourite and a faultless three-from-three record at this track and distance. His Urawa run two back was plain, but the return to 1200m at Mombetsu produced the right response and his overall six wins from nine starts is hard to ignore. STREAM (4) is the clear danger, having won his past two here and owning five wins and five placings from 14 starts over this track and distance; the two-month break is the only small pause. KEIAI DORIE (2) brings a different profile, rebounding from a G3 failure at Chukyo Dirt to win a 3yo+ A1 here from Boiler House, and his two-from-two Mombetsu record keeps him right in the race. STEEL PEGASUS (5) has been around the mark behind both Keiai Dorie and Stream, but as beaten favourite last start he needs to find another length to turn placings into a win. |
