Race 10 1500m Track: GOOD |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Strong early tempo likely with several going forward, headed by Sarasa One and Der Sturm. SARASA ONE (4) got home by 3 lengths last time out over 1400m at this track. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including a win and two placings. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Leading contender. CLOSE YOUR EYES (12) was well in commission last start over 1500m at Urawa when fifth, beaten 6 lengths. Can bounce back. CARD (11) finished second at Urawa two runs back but was less effective last time over 800m at Urawa, finishing 5 lengths back in tenth. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. YAMAICHI ESPO (2) has been out of the frame at her last couple of runs, last time finishing 6 lengths away in 12th over 1200m. Better placed this time and worth following up.
