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

Unexplored to take up the running at a moderate tempo. PEPTIDE ELEANOR (2) sets the standard on recent Mombetsu form, with a three-length 3yo+ C4 win two starts back and a fourth as favourite in 3yo+ C3 grade last time. He needs to answer that fair latest finish, but the profile remains strong. CORDIALITY (6) is the main danger after winning his 3yo+ C4 by five lengths and then placing behind Telemachus; his Mombetsu and distance records give him a solid platform. DOCTOR STOP (4) is more a place-based hope after a third two back and a plain sixth last start, while FORTINBRAS (7) brings a different form line from Sapporo Maiden company and may improve back in this grade. The race looks centred on the top pair, with Doctor Stop and Fortinbras needing sharper last-start improvement to turn place claims into a win.

BUCHE DE NOEL
YOSHIMI YANAGIZAWA 8YO CHESTNUT MARE 55.0KG Aoshiba Shoji Co. Ltd. Settled rearward and finished second last in a 3yo+ C3 at Mombetsu last start, beaten over 16 lengths by Telemachus and unwanted in the market. The start prior was only marginally better, last of six behind Averse. A class drop is listed, but being unplaced in seven track-and-distance tries leaves her with too much to find. |

PEPTIDE ELEANOR
JUNJI TANAKA 3YO DK B GELDING 57.0KG Kazuhiko Numakawa Could not justify favouritism when fourth in a 3yo+ C3 at Mombetsu last start, beaten just over four lengths by Yamanin Elama after travelling in touch and only working home fairly. The run prior carries more weight, winning a 3yo+ C4 by three lengths from Musculation. One win from two here and one win from two with Yuji Iwahashi make him a strong rebound candidate. |

MARINO ROMANCE
Fuyuki Igarashi 5YO GREY MARE 55.0KG Mariko Yano Could not make headway when second last in a 3yo+ C3 at Mombetsu last start, beaten just under ten lengths by Yamanin Elama at big odds. Two back was no better, beaten over 14 lengths behind Bel Baron after conceding a big start. She has won at this track, but the current form and an unplaced record from three attempts at the distance are serious knocks. |

DOCTOR STOP
TAKAHIRO MATSUMOTO 4YO BAY FILLY 55.0KG Kentaro Yui Was only fair through the line when sixth in a 3yo+ C3 at Mombetsu last start, beaten six and a half lengths by Telemachus. Her previous third behind Averse was more encouraging, and she has placed twice from three rides with Yuki Miyauchi. She is better framed as a minor-money chance than a dominant winning hope, but her best recent run keeps her in calculations. |

KAMUINO UTAGE
YOSHIMI YANAGIZAWA 4YO BAY HORSE 57.0KG Lifted at long odds when second to Telemachus in a 3yo+ C3 at Mombetsu last start, beaten four lengths after working home evenly, and that also put him ahead of Cordiality. The prior fourth behind Averse was sound without threatening. His one win from 44 starts keeps the winning case in check, but two track-and-distance placings make him a credible place runner. |

CORDIALITY
JUNJI TANAKA 3YO BROWN COLT 57.0KG Yukio Mizukami Put away Berken by five lengths in a 3yo+ C4 at Mombetsu two starts back as an odds-on favourite, then held third behind Telemachus in 3yo+ C3 grade, beaten just over four lengths after getting his chance. That latest run was not brilliant, but one win and one place from two starts here, plus proven distance form, give him a strong platform in this field. |

FORTINBRAS
JUNJI TANAKA 3YO DK B COLT 57.0KG G1 Racing Co. Ltd. Returns from a five-week freshening after finishing sixth in a 3yo Maiden at Sapporo Dirt, beaten just under ten lengths by Argentum after having too much to do. His previous seventh at Sapporo over 2000m was also safely held, and he remains a maiden after six starts. The class drop and a prior distance placing give him some minor-money appeal if he improves third-up. |

UNEXPLORED
KUNIAKI SASAKI 4YO BAY HORSE 57.0KG Hideharu Yano Returns from a six-week freshening after finishing sixth over 1200m at Mombetsu, beaten just over eight lengths by Siamese. The run prior was seventh over the same trip, beaten over 11 lengths by Geist Segen at big odds. A class drop helps only slightly, because the sharp rise to 1800m and a winless 20-start record demand marked improvement. |

BACH
MORIYAMA TAKEHIRO 3YO DK B COLT 54.0KG KAJIMOTO Holdings Co. Ltd Returns from a six-week freshening after being never competitive and beaten out of sight over 1500m at Mombetsu behind Moon Rainbow. The start prior was another last, beaten over 18 lengths by B B Eris. He has won at Mombetsu and drops to 54kg, but four unplaced runs at the distance and two heavy defeats make this a rough each-way case only. |
