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

Genuine pace with Chaser, Rococo and Win Beginning leading the way. WIN BEGINNING (12) made a strong late bid but just failed to pick up the winner as favourite last start over 1600m at Tokyo Dirt. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run again. ITOSHISA (5) finished 5.5 lengths away in ninth last time out over 1400m at Tokyo when fresh from a spell. Tackles a longer journey this time. Kosei Miura has registered three minor placings when on board. Should be hard to stop. KASHIMA RAIFU (13) ran below expectations last time at Tokyo Dirt, finishing sixth and beaten 6 lengths starting at $6.10. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot find winning ways. ASHITABA SPIRITS (10) is a three-year-old filly on debut from the stable of Yuichiro Nishida. By Makfi from Not Formal. Top-three chance.
