Race 2 1400m Track: |

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

Solid tempo anticipated with Shanghai No Hana leading the way. SHANGHAI NO HANA (10) resumes in a similar race to her last run three months ago when she scored by 1.5 lengths. Rates highly and makes plenty of appeal. KAFUJI UVA (8) showed good early speed and raced on the pace last start before fading to finish sixth, beaten 9 lengths, over 1400m at Himeji. Likely to measure up. TOP TARUMAE (2) returns after a spell of 11 weeks. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1500m at this track. Among the better hopes. LIENJOUX (9) finished 8 lengths from the winner in eighth at his most recent appearance over 1500m at Kawasaki. Expected to feature in the finish this time.
