Race 5 820m Track: |

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

Plenty of pressure primarily from Yubae, Libellula and Techno Express. PURPLE PARAISO (7) returned last time and finished ninth at this track over 1400m. Improvement to come and this is a chance to break through. ELEGANT FLEUR (10) performed well last time at this track, finishing second and only 0.8 lengths from the winner at the end of 820m. Likely improver with strong prospects. TECHNO EXPRESS (1) is racing well including a last start eighth over 1400m at this track. Among the chances again. KURINO KOTEI (8) was sixth over 1400m at this track last time out. No surprise to see him in contention.
