Katsuno Tokimeki, Kongo and Stella Boulogne can set the pace. SASAKIN TOMOJIRO (4) turned in a fine effort to win by a nose at this track and distance when resuming from a layoff last time out. This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is one of the chief contenders. KONGO (6) is back at the races for the first time since September 24. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1000m at this track. Capable of playing a major role. KATSUNO TOKIMEKI (9) showed good early speed over 1000m at this track on debut last start and went on to salute by 1.5 lengths. One of the main contenders. ARMY LOOK (5) is coming along nicely this prep, scoring by 0.8 lengths last start over 1000m at this track. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role again.
