Small field but Light Veil, Yoshino Heroine and Vivien Eight can ensure a genuine tempo. POR LA NOCHE (1) was first up from a spell last start and saluted by 6 lengths at this track over 1700m. Has a very good record here including four wins from eight starts. Too good to ignore. SHIMME RUBUS (4) finished off the last campaign with a win over 2000m at Urawa on March 20. Returns from the break for a new yard. Generally runs well when fresh with two wins and one minor placing from four runs. Sure to be competitive. YOSHINO HEROINE (5) showed good early speed over 1000m at this track last time and went on to salute by a nose. Has a strong record here, including three wins. Capable of a big run. LIGHT VEIL (3) raced on the speed from the outset when resuming last start and finished second over 1200m at this track. Meeting a tougher field but on her best form she is right in contention.
