Lovely View should lead but there are a few other speedy types who can keep him honest. LIVI FACE (1) scored at his last run over 1500m at Kawasaki on May 9 2024. Has switched stables during a break. Generally runs well when fresh with two wins and three minor placings from five runs. One of the main contenders. TONOPAH (5) last appeared when he scored over 1400m at this track on January 8. Rates highly and should take some beating. LOVE AND HAPPINESS (3) is struggling to break through but hasn't been far away, the latest offering a second, beaten one length, over 2000m at Kawasaki. Yoshimi Hanzawa who has scored on her six times retains the mount. Likely improver with strong claims. EDONO BANZAI (9) did a great job to score by a neck over this course and distance last start in a much improved run. Looks well placed so expect another big run.
