RELATIONSHIP (10) was fresh from a spell last time out and making his first appearance over the obstacles. Only 5.5 lengths away in sixth on that occasion in a maiden steeplechase (2750m) at Fukushima. Handy flat performer who looks to have sound prospects this time. PEARLY BLACK (7) has had just two just jumps starts, the latest when fresh-up last time in. Not far away and sure to be improved. Looks well placed here. SHIGERU TANUKI (13) returned from a layoff last time out in a maiden steeplechase (2750m) at Fukushima, finishing fifth when partnered by today's rider T Kosaka. Before that first-up run he transferred to the N Fujisawa yard. Leading contender with that run under the belt. VATRENI (6) is a handy flat performer who has placed to Grade 3 level. Not raced since he finished tenth at his first jumps appearance in a maiden steeplechase (2860m) at Kokura on February 18. Sure to be improved and looks one of the genuine hopes in the race.
