T M MAGIC (1) did a good job to clock-in second two back in a maiden steeplechase (2860m) at Kokura. Backed that up with a sound second in a maiden steeplechase (2970m) at this track 21 days ago, beaten a neck. Go close. TAMAMO ACE (5) recorded a sound second 35 days back in a maiden steeplechase (2970m) at this track. That result followed a solid second in a maiden steeplechase (2860m) at Kokura two starts ago. Another close to a win. AMERICAN PEACE (3) finished third two back in a maiden steeplechase (2860m) at Kokura. Couldn't match that effort last time out, beaten 9 lengths into fifth in a maiden steeplechase (2970m) at this track. Will be tough to beat. MIRACLE ZINNIA (10) was only a neck from the winner when second two runs ago in a maiden steeplechase (2880m) at Nakayama. Failed to finish last time. Worth another try.
