From the inside gate Vertugadin has enough dash to lead, joined by Satono Beats and Ralph Tesoro pressing on from wider out. MISTY MOUNTAIN (14) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1600m at this track, beaten 2.5 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can find the winner's circle. VERTUGADIN (1) resumes. Raced just once last prep and wasn't far away over 1700m at Fukushima. Big chance with the help of the inside gate and Lane to steer. SATONO BEATS (6) went fast early and went on to score by 5 lengths last time out over 1600m at Ohi. Drawn to go forward again. Taking on a better field but he is good enough to play a key role. SMOKY GOD (5) settled well back from a wide draw last time then wound up strongly to finish fourth over 1800m at Nakayama Dirt. One to watch for late in proceedings.
