Pace genuine with Otokoiki and Nihonpiro Custer pressing hard closely followed by Cosmo En En and B B Primero. OTOKOIKI (3) scored two back then sat on the pace last time when second over 1300m at this track. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Expected to be in the finish. YUINO MAHOJIN (10) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1200m at Nakayama Dirt. Tackling a more suitable race and can take this out. NIHONPIRO CUSTER (7) wasn't far off maiden success before a break of three-and-a-half months, finishing the campaign with a minor placing over 1800m at Kyoto Dirt. One of the leading chances. MANA LANAKILA (9) made progress last time out, finishing third over 1750m at this track. Nicely placed and rates highly off that run.
