Plenty of pace from the outset with Nishino Endeavor and Kashino Menkochan leading the charge. MEINER DANK (1) has strung together a couple of wins at this track, the latest on February 25 over 1300m when he scored by 2 lengths. Winning rider Ren Hasegawa retains the mount. Finds a suitable race and can build on recent success. KASHINO MENKOCHAN (8) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 1.5 lengths from the winner in third over 1400m at this track after being prominent at the corner. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role. NISHINO ENDEAVOR (10) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a nice race last time out, finishing second and beaten only 1.3 lengths over 1400m at this track after being in contention on the corner. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. TIPSY WORLD (2) has put together back-to-back placings after scoring three back at this track, most recently beaten 3 lengths into third over 1400m at this track. Nicely placed to play a big role.
