Expecting Prasentier to find the lead but there will be plenty of pressure over the sprint trip. ANZU AME (6) is putting together a good record. Finished second at this track two starts back then scored by 1.3 lengths last time out over 1200m at Kyoto Dirt. Super consistent type with a good record here. Drawn for a soft run and will be tough to stop again. CONQUISTA (15) made a strong late bid but just failed to pick up the winner as favourite last start over 1200m in Listed grade at Nakayama Dirt. Ready to go one better. SUNRISE AMOUR (14) lines up for the first time since December 14. Looking to emulate his win at Morioka Dirt at the beginning of last prep. Has a solid first-up record of four wins and two placings from 12 runs. Sure to make his presence felt. PRASENTIER (3) scored last start at Fukushima Dirt to make it two wins from three starts this campaign. Drawn to enjoy a good run on the speed. Hard to fault recent form and has winning prospects again.
