Genuine tempo from Token Shun leading Daita Valkyrie. STAR EYES (1) last appeared seven weeks ago over 1000m at Kokura Dirt when she finished ninth. This is her first run for the Gen Hayashi stable. Looks to have been found a suitable race today back to NAR level and can turn her form around. TOKEN SHUN (5) showed good early speed and raced on the pace last start before fading to finish fourth, beaten 4.5 lengths, over 1200m at this track. Well placed and should be tough to rein in. ECORO LUCINA (3) returns from a spell of nine weeks and is having her first run for a new yard. Finished 11th at Tokyo Dirt over 1400m when first-up last time in work. Back to NAR level today is a big tick and she can put her best foot forward.. CHEAP IMPACT (9) ran below expectations last time at this track, finishing eighth. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time.
