Race 1 1200m
HENNY IRIS (8) has the clearest winning profile after scoring as favourite at this track three weeks ago, beating Tsukushi by a neck after racing right in the contest. Her previous fourth to Red Floga reads solid enough in this line-up, and two wins plus a placing from eight runs at around 1200m gives her the most reliable course-and-distance credentials. CHUO THOROUGH (3) is the main danger, especially third-up with a win and a placing from ten attempts at this track and trip, though she was only fair late when fourth behind Henny Iris last start. SOLITARIO KAZU (6) has been consistent without breaking through, finishing fifth at his past two and getting within two and a half lengths last time, so he remains a genuine winning chance if he can produce a sharper last 200m. TERUKEN YUMIKABUTO (1) has the class-drop and 51kg set-up in her favour, but her recent 1200m record leaves her looking more a place hope than a likely winner. |

Race 2 1400m
FRENEMY (3) makes most appeal on debut for Masahiro Fukuda, whose first-starter record is solid and whose stable has placed 10 of 16 debutants. The pedigree adds depth, with half-sister Visage winning on debut at Kyoto over 2000m, so she has enough profile strength to be treated as the one to beat. UNIFY (1) is the main danger from barrier one for Naoyuki Matoba, with a useful Bamboo Ere cross and full-brother Longing Nice a seven-time winner. LINDO SOMBRERO (7) has the deepest family page, with several siblings who performed well first time out, while LIENS REVE (2) brings the strong Terunobu Fujita and Tsubasa Sasagawa combination and profiles as a genuine placing hope. |

Race 3 1200m
PIERRE MESSIAH (2) appeals as the one to beat on debut, getting barrier 2 and 51kg for Naoyuki Matoba, whose stable sits fourth for wins at this track and has a fair first-starter profile with 2 wins and 5 placings from 13. The Smart Falcon filly also has a workable trainer-sire record behind her. IIDE TWILIGHT (3) is the main danger, helped by Takayuki Yano taking the ride and a Takakazu Saso debut record of 2 wins and 5 placings from 6 starters. SOUND ATTRAIT (5) has a solid Keiyuki Suzuki debut base, while KEN WIND (1) draws the inside and profiles as a place hope for Chiaki Hori, with Keita Nishi bringing useful local experience. |

Race 4 1600m
IRON BIBLE (4) is the horse to beat with proven form at this track and distance, a solid 1600m profile and the scope to improve second-up after finishing fifth behind Mon Ami at this venue. His second to M T King before a break reads well for this assignment and the class drop strengthens the case. LOGI MAGGIE (10) brings a different angle, coming from 3yo Maiden company for a new stable with Tsubasa Sasagawa booked, and while her last two runs were plain, she is lightly raced and has enough upside to be a real danger. TOSEN DEEN (7) has not been winning, but his track-and-distance place record keeps him in the mix, especially third-up. POLYLOOP (5) was costly as odds-on favourite last start, yet his earlier third and overall three-start profile give him a sound place-to-winning chance if he rebounds. |

Race 5 1200m
G T URARA (4) earns top billing after two solid 3yo+ C3 runs here, finishing fourth to Cat Day just under two lengths back and working evenly for third behind Delizia. While her 1200m record is more about placing, her recent form is solid, and class relief enhances her chances. THE GOAT (6) has better track-and-distance stats, with three wins and seven places from 29 runs, and the light weight keeps her competitive despite a plain sixth behind Kreisler. KAZUNO MARIA (8) boasts the sharpest form, winning by a neck as a heavy favourite after losing to Delizia by the same margin, with two wins and a place from three starts at this track and distance. RUBY GALAXY (1) has a favorable draw and a past win here, with a close C3 second adding depth to her chances. However, her fourth behind Kreisler fell short of market expectations, making her a stronger place chance than a reliable winning option. |

Race 6 1800m
DUNI (10) has the strongest current profile, having won by five lengths at this track two starts back before finishing third to Cosmos Flavor in a 3yo COND, beaten just under three lengths. He has already beaten Justin Levin recently and his two-run record at this venue gives him the right base to go close again. JUSTIN LEVIN (2) is still a maiden, but he draws well, is fourth-up and has placed at today's distance, so the class drop keeps him firmly in play. EROS (3) brings the most reliable overall record, with four wins and five placings from 13 starts at this track, and his last-start third keeps the form line strong despite the 1800m being less proven. FUTABA SUCCESS (12) comes back from a freshening with weight relief and two track-and-distance placings, making him a realistic place hope if he rebounds from the last run. |

Race 7 1400m
SMILE MAMBO (4) sets the standard after returning with a neck win over 1600m at this track, where he beat Bless Word and had both Mut Kurve and Perseverante behind him. His record at this venue and his outstanding association with Takayuki Yano give him the clearest winning profile, even with one unplaced prior try around 1400m. MUT KURVE (8) is the main danger on consistency and venue strength, having closed into third behind Smile Mambo last start after conceding ground and holding a strong overall record at this track. PERSEVERANTE (6) has the deeper career profile, excellent track figures and a win and placing from two runs at this distance, so his recent plain finishes are the main reservation rather than a reason to dismiss him. KAZU GORTYS (2) is fitter third-up, has two wins and two placings from eight starts at this distance, and his Kawasaki fifth was sound enough to give him a realistic place-to-win platform if he lifts off that run. |

Race 8 1200m
YUMEGOTEN (1) brings the clearest winning profile after two dominant 3yo+ C1 wins at this track, scoring by five lengths then four lengths while starting odds-on on both occasions. Her overall and track-distance records are outstanding, and Takayuki Yano has been aboard for strong results. RICKI FAITH (4) is the obvious danger after returning with a two-length second to Shonan Kachidoki at this venue, and her proven 1200m record keeps her firmly in the winning mix. MONTAUK (10) has been building through a fourth and third, both close enough to rate, though she was behind Ricki Faith in the recent clash. A SHIN LA SEINE (5) has not won this campaign but comes back to a more suitable 1200m profile and has the track-and-trip record to push into the placings if she sharpens from the latest sixth. |
