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

Strong tempo from Passion Diva, Meisho Hodawara and Kitano Lively. Passion Diva, Meisho Hodawara and Kitano Lively can set a strong tempo. KITANO LIVELY (7) has recorded three minor placings from three runs this campaign. Was prominent throughout and finished 1.3 lengths from the winner in second last start over 1200m at Nakayama Dirt. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. OSUMI LIGHT (2) resumes from a spell of 12 weeks after closing off last preparation with three consecutive minor placings. Has a good association with Shota Kato with that run of top-three results. Among the leading chances. KO OLINA LAGOON (6) returned last time with a solid second at Nakayama Dirt over 1200m after being prominent at the bend. Placed to advantage and can take this out. MEISHO HODAWARA (4) was close to breaking through last time, beaten just a neck over 1150m at Fukushima Dirt after being in the firing line on the bend. Nicely placed to find winning ways.
