Anticipating a strong tempo with plenty of speed engaged. KURINO HERO (8) made it back-to-back wins when successful last start over 1400m at this track, getting home by 3 lengths. Winning rider F Komaki retains the mount. Finds a suitable race and can add to the picket fence. SUN NERINE (6) finds it hard to win but left a good impression last time out when beaten a neck into second over 1400m at this track. Has good early toe so she should be handy in the run. Expected to be in the finish. VENICE QUEEN (1) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a strong race last time out, finishing fourth and beaten only 1.5 lengths over 1400m at this track after being prominent at the bend. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. SMART SCOPE (3) finished third over 1230m at Sonoda two back then missed the frame last time out over 1400m at this track. Should be parked just off the speed. Chance on best figures and worth including.
