Genuine tempo with the speedy Ifritia leading the way. MAHANA (3) dropped out from the rails draw before closing late to finish fourth over 1800m at Kyoto Dirt last start. Long overdue for a win. Will be tough to hold out. EYE BLINK (4) resumed last time out and finished second over 1800m at Kyoto Dirt, beaten 5 lengths. Ticks all the right boxes. O K ANGEL (5) returns from a layoff of three-and-a-half months. Scored over 1800m at Chukyo Dirt at the start of last prep. Comes here with definite top-three claims. AROMA FELIZ (12) returns after three-and-a-half months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a fourth over 2000m at Sapporo. Opened last prep with a minor placing at Fukushima Dirt over 1700m. Has ability so don't underestimate.
