Solid tempo likely from Miyagi Emperor and Little Something. KING MINEO (1) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing second last time out over 1500m at this track. Drawn to enjoy a nice run just off the speed. Facing a tougher assignment but he is up to the task. LITTLE SOMETHING (7) resumes. Didn't make an impact at his only run last prep on 13/01/2025, finishing 12th and beaten 19 lengths over 1400m at Chukyo Dirt. Should be prominent from the outset. Will prove tough to beat. MOJIMOJI (8) ran below expectations last time after being in contention on the turn at this track, finishing fifth and beaten 3.5 lengths starting at $2.70. Likely improver with strong prospects. MITSUKANE SCORPIO (14) returned from a spell a month ago when he was in contention on the turn before being beaten 17 lengths into 12th over 1700m at Fukushima Dirt. Strips fitter and can improve.
