Genuine tempo from Kurino Awesome leading Kakogan. WEISSKLEE (6) was sent out favourite last time when third over 800m at Himeji after she was always up in the leading division. The extra journey should play into her hands. Capable of taking this out. KAKOGAN (3) finished seventh at his last appearance over 1500m at Himeji on February 27. Likely to be in the finish in this suitable assignment. KURINO AWESOME (8) resumes after a break of four months. Won on debut to launch the last campaign over 1400m at this track. Expect her to pose a serious challenge. KOKOLEKA (10) is a 12-start maiden who filled a minor placing at this track at the last run before spelling. Jumps from a wide alley but has ability and is worth including.
