|---|---|---|---|---|

Reasonable tempo with a few going forward, headed by Kinjito. MEISHO OJIMA (6) turned in a fine effort to score by 5 lengths at today's course and distance last start in a much-improved run. Can go on with it. MAHEALANI (8) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1400m here. The engagement of Ryuichiro Kuratomi is noteworthy. Fitter so expect a better run this time. HAMABENO YUWAKU (4) improved last start but found a couple better over 1400m at this track. Well-placed and in the mix. LEI LEHUA (7) was 13th over 1200m at Fukushima at her latest appearance. Well-placed and can figure in the finish in this suitable race.
