Race 5 1500m Track: |

|---|---|---|---|---|

Reasonable tempo with a few going forward, headed by Win Ares. PURPLE TIARA (5) resumes from a spell of seven months and is having her first outing under new trainer Masato Yokoi. Finished sixth at Niigata over 2000m at the opening run last time in work. Well-placed and looks ready to fire. REIWA EPOCH (11) was in the firing line all the way and fought on well for second last start over 1500m at this track, making it two minor placings in a row. Generally takes a sit but the draw makes it tricky. Likely improver with strong prospects. CERULEAN DROP (1) raced on the speed last start over this course and distance and stuck on well to finish second, beaten a head. Hard to beat in this suitable race. SMILE DAYS (4) made progress last time out, finishing third over 920m at this track. Can give this a shake.
