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

Solid tempo likely with Steife Brise, Proud History and Game Upload prominent. HANEGA HAETEMASU (7) was an emphatic winner last time over 1600m at this track with today's rider Ryu Abe engaged. Looks tough to beat again. GAME UPLOAD (1) kicked off this campaign with a win two runs ago but was not as effective last time out when seventh over 1600m at this track. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time. BELLAGIO KENSHIRO (11) progressed nicely last time out at the second run of the campaign and finished just one length from the winner in second over 1600m at this track. Cherry-ripe now and sure to be very competitive. PROUD HISTORY (5) did very well to fill a minor placing when resuming at this track but raced below expectations last time over 1600m at this track, finishing tenth. Has his share of talent and can do a lot better.
