The speedy Kfir should find the front with A Shin Dueler and Osumi Mirai on his heels. A SHIN DUELER (2) was safely held when fifth last time out over 1400m here after a win at Himeji at the previous outing. Can bounce back to winning form here. KFIR (9) scored by 5 lengths last time out over 1700m at this track. Has a strong record this course, scoring at two of four starts. Major player. KEYWORD (3) has been in the placings at his last two starts, finishing second last time when he was always up in the leading division over 1700m at this track. Meeting a deeper field this time but he can win if at his best. HOKUZAN GOLD (5) has been in the market at his last couple of runs since resuming but failed to threaten, the latest effort a modest fifth at this track over 1870m. Expecting improvement here.
