SHIGERU TANUKI (8) was expected to run well but could only manage third last start, beaten 4.5 lengths, in a maiden steeplechase (2910m) at Kyoto. Rates highly on best form and can open his account this time. DANON JACKAL (4) was fresh from a spell last time out and making his first appearance over the obstacles. In the market but safely held 30 lengths away in tenth on that occasion in a maiden steeplechase (3000m) at Tokyo. Fitter and much improved. Poses a major threat. LITTLE CLEVER (7) was making his jumps debut last start when fresh from a spell. Could only manage seventh on that occasion, beaten 14 lengths, in a maiden steeplechase (2910m) at Kyoto. Can make his presence felt. NESSUM DORMA (9) returns after a spell. Last appeared when fourth in a 2750m maiden steeplechase at Fukushima. Can make a bright return to racing.
