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

Genuine pace with Setsunasa finding the front but it won't be a picnic with a few other speedy types engaged. Very moderate race wheee RAIKA (11) gets chance. Nine-start maiden who finished second over 1400m at this track last time out. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. REPUNIT (5) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 4.5 lengths when seventh in a 1600m contest at Nakayama seven weeks ago. Mixing form but has the ability. Worth another chance. SETSUNASA (12) finished 12 lengths adrift in tenth last time at Nakayama after being in the firing line on the bend in a disappointing performance. Best figures measure up nicely. Can atone. MEINER THEODROS (14) was beaten 10 lengths into tenth in a 1200m contest at Nakayama Dirt at his latest appearance. Best efforts measure up so worth another chance.
