The pace looks even at best given a lack of early speed. HAKUSAN ANTARES (7) is a progressive four-year-old entire who resumes from a break of 11 weeks, his last appearance being a win over 1500m at this track at his only run of that campaign. Has won when fresh from a spell in the past. Winning rider Taiga Kurihara sticks. Leading contender. KITOKITO (3) is back after a break of 11 weeks. Went close to a maiden win before the layoff, finishing second at her latest appearance over 1500m at this track. Ready to find winning form. MAR DORADO (4) returns after 11 weeks in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a fourth over 1400m at this track. One of the leading chances. VERRINE (1) resumes from a spell of 11 weeks and looked close to a win before that break, finishing off with a minor placing over 1400m at this track. Re-unites with Kunihisa Hirase. Rates highly on best form and a bright return wouldn't surprise.
