Just a moderate speed anticipated given the absence of on-pace gallopers. TAISEI LE CIEL (13) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at Funabashi, finishing second and only 1.5 lengths from the winner at the end of 1800m after being prominent at the corner. Going up a level this time but he cannot be underestimated. KURUME MITCHI (6) improved last start to finish second over 2000m at Urawa after being in contention on the bend. Looks well placed so expect another big run. YAMABUKI (14) made progress last time out, finishing 2 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 2000m at Urawa after being in the firing line on the bend. Must raise the bar but another big run is on the cards. MISTRA (3) ran below expectations last time at Urawa, finishing eighth and beaten 7 lengths. Nicely placed to make amends.
