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

From their low gates Chou Cream and Las Vegas Sign should vie for the lead. ECORO HEART (3) ran another good race last time when second over 1200m at this track, beaten 2 lengths. Drawn to enjoy a good run and looks a big threat. HAPPY LUCKY (5) could only manage sixth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1200m at this track, beaten only 0.6 lengths. Facing a tougher assignment but he is up to the task. MICHAEL BAROWS (15) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1200m at Hakodate, beaten 5 lengths into eighth. Steps up a level but he is good enough to take this out. LEVI (16) drifted back from his wide draw last start then hit the line hard to score by a nose at Kokura over 1200m. In form and worth including.
