SEIFU SATSUKI (7) has returned in sound form this prep over the jumps. Placed when resuming in a maiden steeplechase (2860m) at Kokura then finished third last time, beaten 2.5 lengths, in a maiden steeplechase (2860m) at Kokura. Looks very hard to beat in this sort of form. FOR DEAR LIFE (3) has gone a long time since a win and has shown ability over the jumps. Fitter and look for better showing here. MEISHO KOGASHIRA (10) was unplaced two starts back in a maiden steeplechase (2910m) at Kyoto then improved last time when he finished fifth, beaten 8 lengths, in a maiden steeplechase (2860m) at Kokura. No surprise to see him back in form. VALENCAY KAZUMA (14) finished third two back in a maiden steeplechase (2860m) at Kokura. Couldn't match that effort last time out, beaten 15 lengths into seventh in a maiden steeplechase (2860m) at Kokura. Course and distance placed. Can give a sight despite the wide gate.
