Genuine tempo from Arlequin leading Hanano Uta. HAPPY DANCE (7) finds it hard to win with just one success from 18 starts. Was again denied last start when she found a couple better over 1400m at this track. Finds a nice race and can find the winner's circle. ARLEQUIN (3) has switched yards since finishing third six weeks ago over 1300m at Kochi. In the mix despite the unknowns. HANANO UTA (10) was below her best last time, finishing seventh over 1400m at this track. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a pivotal role. MEINER TIMELY (4) made progress last time out, finishing 2.75 lengths from the winner in third over 1400m at this track. Nicely placed to play a pivotal role.
