Ukiyono Yume has good early speed and can set a decent tempo. UKIYONO YUME (5) is in great form, lifting strongly to score last start over 1300m at this track to make it two on the bounce. Reunites with jockey H Yoshihara who knows her well, including two wins while aboard. Leading contender. NOW'S THE TIME (9) built on a nice second two starts back at this track with a win as favourite over 1300m at this track two weeks ago, getting home by 3 lengths. This looks a sterner test than last time but on current form she is capable of another big performance. MONONOFU GOLD (3) improved sharply with a win as favourite over 1300m at this track two weeks ago, getting home by 5 lengths. Look for another big run. FUKUNO LUKKA (2) is a last-start winner eight weeks ago, scoring by 3 lengths over 1300m at this track. Right in the contest.
