Moderate tempo headed by Two Piece. A SHIN TEMUJIN (3) comes here off a break of four months and showed good form last time in. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1400m at this track. Capable of playing a major role. ZENDAN SKY (8) finished second two runs back at this track then improved last time out to score by a neck over 1870m at this track. Could go back-to-back. TWO PIECE (2) has missed the frame at her last couple of outings at JRA level, the latest when eighth over 1800m at Hanshin Dirt. Big class drop today and draws well. LOVE ME NASSAU (7) returns from a spell of four-and-a-half months. Was safely held at the only appearance last prep when seventh over 1400m at Chukyo Dirt. Better placed.
