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

Strong tempo assured from Wisteria Bell and Ho O Pursuit leading the charge. LOVUSHKA (9) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest coming when second over 1400m at this track. Awkwardly drawn and might need a little luck early but has his share of ability and can feature. HO O PURSUIT (4) was racing well without winning, finishing in the money on two consecutive occasions, before finishing fourth last time out over 1400m at this track. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position and can give a sight. NIHONPIRO VESPER (1) showed good early muster and fought on to finish second last start over 1400m at this track. Strong prospects. ASAGA KURU (2) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid third at this track over 1400m. Likely improver.
