Strong tempo primarily from Boiler Maker, Epic Night and Diamo Minoru over Marutoku Laurel and Manno Lightning. BOILER MAKER (8) showed good early dash last time out and led for most of the way before being claimed and finishing 3 lengths away in third over 1400m at this track. Will take catching. DIAMO MINORU (3) is a distance specialist who has been in the placings at his last two starts, finishing third last time when he was handy all the way over 1400m at this track. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. MANNO LIGHTNING (7) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell on 10/01/2025, finishing fourth and beaten 4.5 lengths over 1400m at Kasamatsu. Definite top-three chance. EPIC NIGHT (4) did a great job to score by 2.5 lengths over today's course and distance last time out to continue his outstanding recent form. Likely to be there at the finish again.
