Expecting a strong tempo with Fernanda, Azukichan and Grazie going forward ahead of Ravi's Dream and Sahara Flavor. ODENTA (10) built on a nice third when fresh from a spell two starts back at Funabashi with success as public elect over 1200m at Funabashi three-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by half a length. Masashige Honda scored on him last time and retains the ride. This looks a sterner test than last time but on current form he is good enough to take this out. FERNANDA (4) did a good job last time, finishing in the money when second over 1500m at this track. Should be poised just off the lead. Will give a great sight. GRAZIE (9) couldn't have been more impressive first up last start when she scored by 3 lengths over 1500m at this track. Was a winner at the only previous second-up run and is expected to run well again. AZUKICHAN (5) was in a different class last time with a dominant all-the-way win by 2.5 lengths at this track over 1400m. Sure to be thereabouts.
