Keen tempo with Chase The Way and Furaha prominent. INNOCENT CAT (7) found the line nicely last start to get up for third over 1200m at Nakayama Dirt. That followed an easy first-up win at this circuit. Should be winding up late again. STEELBLUE (2) finished seventh over 1400m at Tokyo at her most recent appearance on February 23. Now under the care of new trainer Katsuharu Tanaka. Has ability and should be right in the finish. MAJOR DEBUT (14) was prominent at the turn and finished second last start over 1200m at Nakayama Dirt, beaten 2.5 lengths. Ready to go one better. FURAHA (1) was beaten 4 lengths into fifth at the second run back from a break in a 1400m contest at Chukyo Dirt last time out. Fitter and can turn things around.
