Very keen early battle as Key Signal and Yume Taizan match motors but there are a few others that can keep them busy. KEY SIGNAL (1) is in top form and has put together five straight wins, the latest here over 1500m. This looks his optimum trip with four wins from four starts and should be hard to top. CLEE (2) has put back to back wins together, the latest here at the same trip by 3 lengths. Same rider has been aboard at his last two successes. Rates a leading contender. SEVEN MILE (10) made a nice return to find the frame when beaten only half a length this course and distance. Regular rider Toyokazu Tano back aboard again. Has claims if runs up to his mark. MEISHO MOCHIZUKI (11) scored a good win on his final run last campaign at Sonoda over 1400m. Good record at this journey with three wins and two placings from seven starts and best figures have him right around the mark.
