Genuine tempo with Kirameki Dancer leading the way. WALDBADEN (9) ran a bold race over this journey when resuming last start, racing on the pace and sticking on strongly to finish 4 lengths away in second at this track. Nicely placed to go one better. GRACE ROUGE (6) was in a different class last time with a dominant all-the-way win by 4 lengths here over 1500m. Will prove very tough to beat. MEISHO HYUGA (4) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 9 lengths when ninth over 1800m at Hanshin five-and-a-half weeks ago. Finds the right race this time and can turn things around. KIRAMEKI DANCER (5) made progress last time out, finishing 6 lengths from the winner in second over 1400m at this course. Looks to be in the right race so expect another big run.
