Expecting a solid tempo set up by Meisho Sachidake crossing from the outside stall. MEISHO SACHIDAKE (16) has been in the money at his last couple of runs, the latest when second over 1400m at Kyoto. Makes his own luck up on the pace. Ready to find winning form. DAISY (11) finished fifth at her second-up appearance over 1400m at this track but it is worth noting she won at the only third-up run. Fitter and deserves another chance. KITASAN D'AMOUR (13) didn't make an impact at her last run before going for a spell on 16 February, finishing tenth and beaten 4 lengths over 1600m at Kyoto. Hasn't scored when fresh from a break but generally races well with three minor placings. Comes here with definite top-three claims. SEIUN DESEO (8) followed an unplaced effort two starts back with a third last start over 1200m at Fukushima. Looks to be in the right race so expect another big run.
