Genuine tempo from Angel Star leading Fukurai Kirishima. KASHINO ASAP (3) has put together a couple of wins at this course, the latest on April 25 over 1400m when he got home by a neck. Can score again. IHOJIN (9) is close to a win after a string of minor placings, the latest when third over 1400m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. KASHINO MERCURY (2) finished out of the money when fourth in a 1400m contest at this track two weeks ago. Has her share of talent and finds a suitable race. FUKURAI KIRISHIMA (4) was responsible for a better run last start when fourth over 1400m at this track. Capable of featuring prominently.
