|---|---|---|---|---|

Solid tempo with Kastrom Pepe leading from Digest and Come Back. BOLD CHAR (1) is struggling for a win and proving costly lately but does go well this venue. Going well without winning and expected to prove a top chance. COAL BLACK (4) has been in the placings at his last two starts, finishing third last time over 1500m at this track. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. KASTROM PEPE (9) finished eighth over 1800m at Nakayama Dirt at his most recent appearance on March 22. Has switched to the Manabu Yamamoto yard. Comes here with definite top-three claims. LAPLAND (8) turned in a much better effort last time out to score by one length over 2200m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run.
