Silflay to push forward on the fence and lead a race lacking pace. ASAKUSA GRACE (7) is yet to break through but has been in the money seven times including last start when second over 1200m at this track. Has weighed in at all three tries over this distance. Among the top chances. KITANO LIVELY (5) finished second last time over 1200m at this track to make it four minor placings from seven career runs. Has a solid record at this journey, finishing in the money on four occasions. Top chance to break through. SILFLAY (1) finished 3 lengths adrift in seventh last time at Kokura after being in contention on the bend in a disappointing performance. Likely improver with strong prospects. URUS CHROME (14) was prominent at the turn and finished second last time over 1500m at Kanazawa when resuming from a spell, beaten 3 lengths. Steps up a level but he is up to the task.
