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

Strong tempo likely with several going forward, headed by Harmony Hokuto and Blue Glitter. HARMONY HOKUTO (3) scored by 2.5 lengths when resuming last start at this track over this distance after he was prominent at the turn. Has a very good record over today's journey with eight wins from 12 starts. Masashige Honda who has scored on him four times retains the mount. Sure to run well. ORTU SOLIS (4) is back at the races for the first time since June 6. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1200m at this track. Rates highly and makes plenty of appeal. PRINCESS DARK (6) is backing up quickly after finishing in the money at Urawa over 1500m just eight days ago. Good effort last start and she can sneak into the finish. BLUE GLITTER (11) was last at the races when he finished third over 800m at Urawa on July 24. Has found the right race and is worth including.
