Moderate pace from Asian Tailor taking it up with Cool Marlowe and Utakata on her back. NIHONPIRO GRIT (3) met with solid support when resuming last start over 920m at this track when second, beaten 6 lengths. Will improve and is worth another chance. OH BRAVO (1) worked home well to grab third at very long odds at his latest appearance at this track over 1400m. Will drift back but wind up late. Leading contender. UTAKATA (12) did little and finished 10 lengths from the winner in seventh over 1500m at this track last start, a less impressive effort than her sixth at this track the run before. Has her share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. KITANO SHORYU (4) resumes from a spell of four-and-a-half months. Could only manage to finish 11th at the latest run over 1500m at this track. Minor claims fresh.
