Loads of pressure, primarily from Invincible Papa, Myriad Love and June Blair. NAMURA CLAIR (7) resumes today after filling a minor placing at her only appearance last prep in the G1 Takamatsunomiya Kinen at Chukyo over 1200m on March 30. Sound record at this distance with five wins and six minor placings from 13 runs. Grand mare who looks the one to beat. JUNE BLAIR (1) is back from a break of three-and-a-half months. Raced once last prep and scored comfortably at Nakayama over 1200m. Tackles a much tougher assignment but she is expected to run well. KA PILINA (4) is back from a spell of 12 weeks. Closed last campaign with a minor placing over 1400m in the G3 Aichi Hai at Chukyo. Definite top-three chance. MYRIAD LOVE (8) is a progressive galloper who is first-up since finishing seventh over 1600m in Group 3 grade at Riyadh Dirt four months ago which was the only run of that prep. Has won when fresh from a spell in the past. Solid claims on best form.
