Good pace from Top Ranker, Eye Leads and Bear Asumui. TOP RANKER (6) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by 6 lengths over 1200m at Funabashi. Facing a tougher assignment but he is capable of running a bold race. ROAD RAISING (2) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell on April 7, finishing ninth and beaten 13 lengths over 1600m at this track. Capable of playing a major role. ORIKO EL DORADO (1) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell on April 7, finishing seventh and beaten 6 lengths over 1600m at this track. Looks one of the genuine hopes in the race. EYE LEADS (14) raced on the pace over 2000m at Urawa last time and went on to win by half a length. Ryo Novata who has three wins when partnering stays on. Big chance again.
