Hakusan Selene to take charge ahead of Chicago Fountain at a good tempo. ROSE PIE (11) went to the paddock after scoring at her last appearance four months ago over 1200m at this track. Has ability and should be right in the finish. RAINBOW POLARIS (4) raced below his best last time when sixth over 1200m at this track, beaten 4 lengths. Nicely placed to make amends. SANONO TARUMAE (6) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1200m at this track, beaten 3 lengths after being in the firing line on the bend. Has her share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. HAWAIIAN JEWEL (2) showed good early dash and stalked the pace last start before drawing clear to score by 1.5 lengths over 800m at Urawa. Keita Nishi who has two wins when partnering stays on. Among the top-three hopes.
