Tagano Mist should lead but there are a few other speedy types who can keep her honest. IN YOUR PALACE (3) brings the cleanest recent profile, having run second to Matenro Command at Saga after a sound fourth in the G3 Tokai Tv Hai Tokai Stakes. He is third-up, well proven around this distance, and has the right blend of current form and class depth, with the distance query the only real note of caution. HAPPY MAN (8) was behind him at Saga but improved into third there and also drops away from stronger G3 company, so he remains a genuine danger if he can take another step. K'S REVE (7) has been well held in two G3 runs, yet his overall record and distance statistics read strongly for this level. TAGANO MIST (4) resumes off consecutive wins, including the Listed Ritto Stakes, and her 1400m record keeps her firmly in the mix despite the break.

DANON FIGO
Y TOMOMICHI 4YO BAY HORSE 55.0KG Danox Co. Ltd. Returns after two months following a plain tenth in the G3 Tokai Tv Hai Tokai Stakes at Chukyo Dirt, where he was beaten over 10 lengths and made no headway behind Matenro Command. His Kochi second as favourite two runs back reads better, and six wins from 13 starts with Yuga Kawada back aboard gives him some substance. Still, he needs to rebound sharply to turn that class drop into a winning chance. |

KARLSBAD
SATOSHI SAITO 8YO CHESTNUT HORSE 54.0KG Returns after two months having finished seventh over 1000m at Funabashi, beaten five and a half lengths at big odds after being well back on the turn. His previous fifth over 1200m was more encouraging, as he picked up nicely despite again starting at long odds. The return to a proven track-and-trip setup helps, though recent winning form is thin and he appeals more for minor money. |

IN YOUR PALACE
NAOSUKE SUGAI 5YO DK B HORSE 54.0KG Kobayashi Eiichi Holdings LLC. Improved second-up when second at Saga, beaten a length and a half by Matenro Command after working home evenly and being kept safe near the top of betting. That followed a sound fourth in the G3 Tokai Tv Hai Tokai Stakes at Chukyo Dirt, beaten four lengths. Third-up now with a solid 1400m record, he sets the standard if the distance query does not bite late. |

TAGANO MIST
KAORU WATANABE 5YO BAY MARE 53.0KG Ryoji Yagi Resumes after three months in winning form, having beaten Tamamo Freesia by a length and a half at Kawasaki after looming up and fighting on as the short odds-on favourite. She had earlier won the Listed Ritto Stakes at Kyoto Dirt, so the class line is genuine. The break and first look at Urawa are considerations, but her distance record keeps her a realistic each-way player. |

EXULT
KATSUNORI ARAYAMA 7YO DK B HORSE 54.0KG Yoichi Aoyama Resumes after three months following a third at Urawa, beaten three lengths behind Lord Fons after working home evenly at big odds. The start prior, he beat Austro by a neck at this track on a fast surface, which gives him a useful local reference. He has placed in all three track-and-distance runs, but the distance query keeps the assessment cautious against deeper opposition. |

AUSTRO
HIROTSUGU OZAWA 6YO BAY HORSE 54.0KG Resumes after three months off a decisive Urawa win, beating Alula by three lengths after strong market support into very short odds-on territory. That was a clear improvement on his sixth behind Lord Fons, when he was never a factor at big odds. His track-and-distance record is excellent, yet the overall profile still demands another high-end effort in this stronger contest. |

K'S REVE
ENOKIYA MITSURU 4YO BAY HORSE 54.0KG Ken Ito Returns after five weeks from a G3 Chukyo Kinen 12th behind Lavanda, beaten just over six lengths after conceding a huge start and never getting into the race. He had produced a similar pattern in the G3 Kokura Kinen over 2000m. The class drop and 1400m record are positives, but he will need to settle close enough to use them as a genuine place chance. |
7 H YOSHIHARA |
|
| 8 | 97x83 |
HAPPY MAN
RYO TERASHIMA 4YO DK B HORSE 55.0KG Shigehisa Tanabe Built fitness when third at Saga, beaten three and a half lengths behind Matenro Command after tracking the speed and working home evenly. The prior G3 Tokai Tv Hai Tokai Stakes run was plain, but this is a more suitable assignment and he has three wins at the distance. He must turn the tables on In Your Palace from Saga, though his third-up profile keeps him firmly in the winning discussion. |

GEORGE TESORO
SATOSHI KOKUBO 5YO CHESTNUT HORSE 54.0KG Ryotokuji Kenji Holdings Co. Ltd. Returns after five weeks since a disappointing fourth at Kawasaki, beaten eight lengths as favourite after settling rearward over 1600m. His previous Urawa run was also plain, finishing seventh behind Lord Fons after never looking likely. The back in trip and one prior track-and-distance win are positives, but recent form says he must find a sharper finish. |
