Strong pace from Reach A Deal, T O Sparrow and Piston Boy, with Enough Said and Carry Happiness on their heels. ENOUGH SAID (3) returns from a spell of three months and is having his first run for a new yard. Finished 15th at Niigata Dirt over 1200m when first-up last time in work. Winning chance in this much easier assignment. CARRY HAPPINESS (2) was always forward and boxed on to finish second over 1300m at this track last time. Should run well. YUKINO MARIA (4) did a great job to score by 2.5 lengths over this course and distance last start in a far better run. Stepping up a level this time but on her best form she is one of the chief contenders. PISTON BOY (6) finished second two runs back at this track then improved last time out to score by one length over 1300m at this track. Likely to be in the finish again.
