Without a recognised leader, Tiger Dragon and Jun Two Point will likely set the pace. SHIRAYURI (5) disappointed last start when out of the placings over 1400m at this track, beaten 6 lengths. Goes up a rung or two but she is up to the task. TIGER DRAGON (7) is returning from a spell of ten weeks. Finished 14th at Nakayama over 1600m at the first run last prep. Now with a new trainer Shinichi Hatakeyama. Expect him to pose a serious challenge. BELIEVE SUNRISE (3) finished out of the money two starts back then she settled well back and was beaten 5.5 lengths when seventh in a 1600m contest at this track five weeks ago. Finds a nice race and can feature in the finish. POWER MOVE (2) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 5.5 lengths into sixth. Nicely placed to find some form.
