Jinsei should lead but there are a few other speedy types who can keep him honest. JINSEI (8) is racing well, scoring two back at this track before finishing a neck from the winner in second last time over 1800m at Hanshin Dirt. Yuga Kawada who has scored on him twice, retains the mount. Likely to feature. HAGINO SUSTAINABLE (5) returns from a layoff of nine weeks. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1900m at Chukyo Dirt. Strong chance to kick the campaign off on the right note. PATIENT SIEN (9) did very well to fill a minor placing when resuming at this track but raced below expectations last time over 1800m at Nakayama Dirt, finishing seventh and beaten 8 lengths. Has raced five times here and has never missed the frame. Should bounce back. PENNA VELOCE (7) was well fancied when resuming last start and proved too strong, scoring by 0.8 lengths over 1800m at Hanshin Dirt. Can go on with the job.
