Not a great deal of pressure likely in the small field, with Rapido Fiore a potential leader. YODONO TAIYO (3) is in winning form after scoring as favourite last time out by a neck over 1400m at this track. Yet to miss the frame in three starts over this course and distance. Tomohiro Yoshimura who has scored on him two times retains the mount. Bold showing expected. RAPIDO FIORE (6) is back after a break of six-and-a-half months. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 1400m at Kasamatsu. Expect him to play a major role. LIGHTNING BLUE (2) was in the firing line on the bend and finished third last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 2.25 lengths. Ready to go a couple better. GREEN THEATER (4) turned in another moderate effort last start when sixth over 1400m at this track. Better than recent efforts suggest.
