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

Strong tempo with Keiai Antares, Radiant Horse and T M Daitaka leading the way. RADIANT HORSE (3) led throughout last start to score an effortless 4 lengths win over 1750m at this track. Has never missed the frame at this venue, including five wins. Among the leading chances. COSMO MEIGETSU (1) won at this track and distance at his last outing three-and-a-half months ago. Strong chance to kick the campaign off on the right note. AMALFI (2) is ready to win after he just missed last time, beaten a head into second over 1400m at this track after being in contention all the way. Has the speed to be prominent from the outset. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. KEIAI ANTARES (7) went forward over 1400m at this track last time but found one better. Manato Hida who has seven wins when partnering stays on. Solid claims on best form.
