Hot tempo expected from Hakusan Iris and Band Ace. GOLDEN KITE (6) returns from a break of ten weeks. Was going well at the back end of last prep with placings at his last two starts, the latest at this course and distance. Winning rider Yuga Kawada sticks. Expecting a bold showing. VRTRAHAN (10) continues to race well with a win two back at this track before finishing a head away in second last time over 1400m at Kyoto Dirt. Best form puts him right in this. HOSHO MARIS (15) finished fourth over 1400m at Kyoto Dirt when resuming last start, beaten only 2 lengths. Nicely placed to take this out. GEMITO (9) closed off strongly last start to get up for third, beaten half a length, over 1400m at Kyoto Dirt. Will drift back but wind up late. Can run on into the finish.
