Pace strong with Tiger Trail and Bellagio Focus pressing forward and Kanetoshi Clutch kicking up from the inside alley. BELLAGIO FOCUS (7) is backing up 10 days after finishing third over 1400m at this track. Nice run last time and could prove tough to beat. GIOCOSO (10) is an eight-start maiden who was in the placings at her last two starts, finishing second at her latest appearance over 1230m at this track. Tatsuya Takemura stays aboard and although yet to win has been in the money on four occasions. Bold showing expected. ASAMESHIMAE (4) is a nine-start maiden who could only manage to finish seventh at his latest appearance over 1230m at this track. Suited in this lineup and is among the better hopes. STAR OF ADAM (2) resumes from a spell of three-and-a-half months and is having his first outing under new trainer Kosaku Hori. Finished ninth at Nakayama Dirt over 1800m at the opening run last time in work. Should be primed for this.
