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

Fast tempo likely from Alain Barows going forward from out wide, with Scharfsinn joining in. ALAIN BAROWS (10) returns from a spell of five months after back-to-back wins to close last campaign, the latest over 1600m at Kawasaki. Has a terrific record here with three wins and two minor placings from five starts. Bold showing expected. PLACEBO (12) finished seventh two runs back at this track then improved last time out to score by half a length after being prominent at the corner over 1600m at this track. Meeting a deeper field this time but he is good enough to play a major role. HENNY TYPHOON (7) returned from a spell six weeks ago when she was beaten 2.5 lengths into sixth over 1400m at Urawa. Finds a more suitable contest and can get the job done. KINGSTON BOY (14) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell on March 31, finishing fifth and beaten 6 lengths over 1600m at this track. Definite top-three chance.
