Certain to be a strong tempo with Tagano Mist, Meisho Horen and Muumuu leading the charge. MEISHO HOREN (6) returned from a spell last start with a strong win by 1.3 lengths over 1200m at Hanshin Dirt. Generally runs well second-up so he should hold the form and feature in the finish again. TAGANO MIST (4) was far from disgraced when third last start over 1200m at Hanshin Dirt, beaten 2.75 lengths. That followed a win at this track the start prior. Has her share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. KITANO'S EDGE (16) is a progressive four-year-old entire who resumes from a break of nine weeks, his last appearance being a win over 1200m at Hanshin Dirt. Has won when fresh from a spell in the past. Should settle just off the speed despite the draw. One to consider. CAMILLO (8) struggling to break through and over a year since a win, last start finishing second over 1200m at Hanshin Dirt. Miyuki sticks. Must be respected.
