Solid tempo with Quattro Jack leading from Mozu Bandit and Shoken. QUATTRO JACK (11) has two minor placings from three starts this time in work, the latest as favourite over 1700m at Fukushima Dirt. The one to beat in a race lacking in depth and quality. MON CHERI (2) finished second over 1400m at Chukyo Dirt at her most recent appearance on March 15. Capable of playing a major role. BALMY WEATHER (10) was below his best last time, finishing sixth and beaten 5.5 lengths over 1400m at Chukyo Dirt. Best figures measure up nicely. Can improve sharply. WATER LEADER (9) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing fourth at Hanshin Dirt over 1400m. Can turn things around.
