AKI TOKUBETSU 1200m Track: |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Solid tempo anticipated with Otomena Shacho leading the way. T O GLASER (13) is back at the races for the first time since April 5. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1400m at Chukyo Dirt. Strong chance to kick the campaign off on the right note. SOUL ON FIRE (16) returned from a break last start and led throughout to score by 1.75 lengths over 1400m at Kyoto Dirt. Expected to take some stopping again. VRTRAHAN (14) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when fourth, beaten 1.5 lengths, over 1400m at Kyoto Dirt after he was in contention on the bend. Should be peaking now and looks a definite danger. SAMMARU NOVEL (15) resumes in a similar race to his last run three-and-a-half months ago when he scored by 2.5 lengths. Worth including.
