|---|---|---|---|---|

Strong pace from Tagano Sylphy and Smashing pushing forward, along with Street Queen from out wide. SMASHING (6) started favourite last time out over 1400m at Hanshin Dirt but found one better, making it four minor placings from six starts this campaign. She should be involved in the finish. PRINCESS ATSUKO (10) kept coming only to just miss last start over 1400m at Hanshin Dirt. Placed 3/3 do far and bursting to win. Hard to beat. PICARA (9) is back from a spell of six months. Debuted with a second, beaten 1.3 lengths, over 1400m at this track at her only appearance to date. One of the main contenders. TAGANO SYLPHY (4) resumes today after showing glimpses of ability in her first campaign. Open to improvement and expected to go on with it.
