Keen battle for the lead with Angler, Regeneration and Meisho Bonheur in advance of Crucifer and Fly With Me. ICHIBAMBOSHI (10) is poised to win after placing at his last three outings, most recently when second over 1400m at this track when he was handy all the way. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. EXSPERION (11) gave away a considerable start over 1400m at this track last time before hitting the line well to finish fourth. Sure to be tough to hold out. MEISHO BONHEUR (3) showed good early dash at the first run after a spell last time out and led for most of the way before being claimed and finishing 1.5 lengths away in second over 1230m at this track. Solid run last start and is among the chances again. NATURAL (8) has been racing well without winning. Last start finished third, beaten 12 lengths, over 1230m at this track. Has a win and eight minor placings at this trip from 19 starts so she is sure to be in the mix again.
