Solid tempo headed by Caramel Chocolat and Fuku Adel. CARAMEL CHOCOLAT (4) is a 16-start maiden who filled a minor placing at Nagoya at the last run before spelling. Expect she has come on over the break. Rates on top and is a great chance to open the campaign with a win. GINREI (9) started at $3.40 last time and ran below expectations, finishing fifth and beaten 3 lengths at this track over 1200m. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. GRANDE DIVA (8) was safely held when eighth last time out over 1200m at this track, beaten 4.5 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Finds a suitable race and can return to winning ways. KOBINAI FOUNTAIN (10) came home strongly last start to finish third, beaten 0.7 lengths, over 1500m at Urawa. Worth including.
