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

Keen tempo with Meisho Kyrgyz and Cool Baby prominent. COWSLIP (8) opened this prep last start with a third, beaten 3 lengths, over 1000m at this track. Not far away in stakes class latest. Fitter and is a winning hope this much easier company. BABY KISS (6) went forward last start over 1200m at Kokura and held on well for third, beaten 2.5 lengths. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. COOL BABY (10) did a great job to score by a neck over this course and distance when first-up from a spell last start. Facing a tougher assignment but she is good enough to figure in the finish. ECORO SIEG (5) has not won for a long while. Last raced on July 4 when beaten 4.5 lengths into 14th at Hakodate over 1200m after being prominent until the final stages. Placed to advantage so expect a bold run.
