KAIKO (7) missed the frame two runs ago in a maiden steeplechase (2860m) at Kokura then was a modest fifth last time in a maiden steeplechase (2880m) at Nakayama. Will take stopping if anywhere near his peak. MONZA FLAVOR (13) is struggling to break through but managed to finish third last time out in a maiden steeplechase (2880m) at Nakayama. Best form reads well and cannot be underestimated. HARBOR LIGHT (4) found the frame two back in a maiden steeplechase (2860m) at Kokura. Couldn't match that effort last time out, beaten 13 lengths into tenth in a maiden steeplechase (2880m) at Nakayama. Expect a return to form. MAR D'IRLANDA (10) tackles the jumps for the first time. Last raced when he finished 16th in a over 1400m at Tokyo Dirt on February 15. Anticipating a bright start to the new phase of his career.
