Strong pace from Izlude, Gale Rider and Epoca Spiga, with Lux Spei and Wanderer on their heels. BERGERONNETTE (10) looks to kick off this prep the way he ended the last 11 weeks ago when he scored over 1400m at Kyoto Dirt. Has the right profile. GALE RIDER (5) recorded a strong maiden win over 1400m at Chukyo Dirt last time, getting there by 3 lengths. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Shaping up nicely and he is a great chance to go back-to-back. STOP YEARNING (3) wasted no time getting off the mark on debut over 1400m at Kyoto Dirt four months ago and has not been produced since. Sure to play a major role. SHONAN YO HO (2) registered his first win last start over 1400m at this track, getting home by 3.5 lengths. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. This is tougher but he is capable of another big run.
