|---|---|---|---|---|

Solid pace from Plati Clair with Best Returner and Sanono Tarumae also pressuring. BEST RETURNER (8) was ridden positively and led throughout to score over 1400m at this track last time. Same winning combination here and is right in this. DYNATO SELENE (5) returned from a spell three weeks ago when she was beaten 12 lengths into sixth over 1600m at Funabashi. Strips fitter and can find winning ways. PLATI CLAIR (1) resumes from a spell of 11 weeks and is having her first outing under new trainer Takashi Mizuno. Finished tenth at Nakayama Dirt over 1200m at the opening run last time in work. Worth plenty of thought on an each-way basis. PHRONESIS (13) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 1200m at Funabashi. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role.
