Plenty of speed from Suns and Ningente Iina. ALVAREZ (4) was successful last start over 1400m at this track, getting home by 3 lengths to make it three wins in a row. Winning rider Aoi Shinoya retains the mount. It doesn't get any easier but on current form he is right in contention. STOIC NOAH (7) has put together a couple of wins at this circuit, the latest on May 29 over 1500m when he got home by half a length. Winning rider Wada Joji retains the mount. Finds a suitable race and can figure in the finish. SUNS (10) lines up for the first time since April 23. Looking to emulate his win at this track when returning from a spell last prep. Among the better hopes. NINGENTE IINA (8) turned in a fine effort to win by 0.8 lengths at this track and distance last start in a far better run. Taking on a better line-up this time but he can get the job done.
