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

Plenty of pressure from Garcon Manque, Katsuno Tokimeki and Steel Bright battling for the lead over Midnight Gale. KATSUNO TOKIMEKI (8) resumes after a break of six months. Did win at her only other first-up run when on debut, scoring over 1000m at this track. Expected to feature. GARCON MANQUE (5) returns from a break of eight months. Consistent performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a win over 1000m at this track. Nicely placed to kick off another successful campaign. MANO LEA (2) is a distance specialist who missed the frame last start when she settled well back over 800m at Himeji, finishing 11th. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including five wins and can produce a better result. STEEL BRIGHT (7) won at this track and distance at her last outing five months ago. Has found a suitable race to kick off the campaign and is worth including.
