Reasonable tempo with Kenshi Yuki probably leading but a few others should keep him honest. KENSHI YUKI (10) is backing up just 10 days after he was strongly fancied and finished second over 1400m at Urawa. Tricky draw to overcome but will be hard to beat. MINO BELL (4) hasn't made an impression lately despite market confidence. Last start could only manage sixth over 1500m at Urawa. Among the leading chances. RHIPSALIS (6) has been thereabouts since getting off the mark five runs back, the latest effort a third over 1200m at this track. Expected to run well again. BUBBLY HERO (9) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when second over 1200m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects.
