Teikei Holomua, Wide Orden and Taishin to take up the running at a decent tempo. WIDE ORDEN (5) brings the most reliable profile among the main chances, with repeated placings at Sonoda and a strong overall record of three wins and eight places from 15 starts at this track and distance. She was third behind Ai Towa last start and second to Piko Land the run prior, so she sets a solid benchmark rather than arriving as a dominant winner. TEIKEI HOLOMUA (3) has the sharper winning form, having beaten Kanetoshi Clutch by a nose here last time, and two wins from three starts at the course and distance make him a genuine threat again. SWEET FAIRY (9) is harder to read after two plain runs this campaign, but her track-distance record and excellent association with Tomohiro Yoshimura keep her in the winning mix if she improves third-up. ECORO ATHENA (2) must rebound from a safely held sixth, yet her three-length win over Annina two starts ago gives her enough substance to be treated as the next danger.

LA LA TERROIR
SEIJIRO IKARI 6YO DK B HORSE 57.0KG Fujii Kosan Co. Ltd. Drops back from 3yo+ C1 grade, but recent form is difficult to recommend. He was last behind Go Go Tsuyoshi at Sonoda last start, beaten a long way at big odds after fading late, and had been second last behind Eze Village two back, beaten over 19 lengths. Four wins at this track and distance are noted, but he needs a major turnaround to threaten. |

ECORO ATHENA
TSUYOSHI OBARU 4YO BAY FILLY 55.0KG Masatoshi Haramura Had a clear dip last time when sixth behind Hishi Cullinan at Sonoda, beaten just over nine lengths after sitting handy and only battling home. The stronger reference is her previous three-length win over Annina here, when she was near the top of betting and drove hard late. With one win and seven places from 16 starts at this track and distance, she profiles as a realistic place hope if she rebounds. |

TEIKEI HOLOMUA
HIROYUKI YAMAGUCHI 3YO BAY COLT 57.0KG Made it two wins from three starts when beating Kanetoshi Clutch by a nose at Sonoda last start, showing plenty after holding a narrow lead. He was favourite two runs back when fourth behind A Shin Diva, beaten four lengths, so there is a slight query if he is pressured late. Still, his course-and-distance record and two wins from two with Tatsuya Takemura make him a strong winning chance. |
3 TATSUYA TAKEMURA |

TAISHIN
Jun Fujikawa 3YO BAY COLT 56.0KG Needs to put a plain latest run behind him after finishing second last behind Ekvator at Sonoda, beaten eight lengths at generous odds. The run prior was much better, winning here by half a length from Best Maria, and his three wins from seven starts at this track and distance are a genuine positive. With F Komaki back aboard, he has enough local substance to be a place factor rather than a clear top pick. |

WIDE ORDEN
MASASHI ATARASHI 4YO BROWN FILLY 54.0KG Has been consistently around the mark without quite putting them away, most recently third behind Ai Towa at Sonoda and beaten just under five lengths after working home only fairly. Her second to Piko Land two starts ago was stronger, beaten just under two lengths when well found in betting. With three wins and eight places from 15 starts at this track and distance, she brings the most dependable profile in the race. |
5 TEPPEI KOTANI |

VLAMINCK
TAKAO KURODA 7YO BAY HORSE 57.0KG Toru Makiura Comes through two very plain 3yo+ C1 runs, finishing last behind Eze Village at Sonoda last start when beaten out of sight at big odds. He was also last over 820m two runs back behind Le Vent Vert, never competitive and again well beaten. Six wins at this track and distance show past capability, but current form leaves him with too much to repair. |
6 KAZUYUKI WATASE |

| 7 | 46x34 |
Z HIRO
NORIO TANAKA 4YO BAY FILLY 55.0KG Forest Co. Ltd. Closed off better than the result reads when fourth behind Safari over 820m at Sonoda last start, picking up nicely from well back and beaten four and a half lengths. She had earlier been third behind Grand Centre over 1230m, beaten just over two lengths after being well enough fancied. Returning to 1400m helps on her one win and two places from five at this track and distance, so she has minor-money appeal. |
7 KANTA INOUE |
|
| 8 | 36165 |
KURINO ENISHI
TADAAKI HASHIMOTO 4YO BROWN HORSE 57.0KG Yoriko Kurimoto Has been just fair at his past two, finishing fifth behind Hishi Cullinan at Sonoda last start, beaten seven and a half lengths, after a sixth to Piko Land when beaten just over six lengths. He was also beaten by Wide Orden about a month ago, which is relevant against the stronger chances. His track-and-distance record is respectable, but he needs to find a sharper finish. |
8 NAGAO TASUKU |
|
| 9 | 32x56 |
SWEET FAIRY
ISAO NAGAKURA 4YO DK B FILLY 55.0KG Toshio Terada Gets a positive rider profile with Tomohiro Yoshimura, who has won twice from three rides on her, and that helps offset two plain runs this campaign. She was sixth behind Bellagio Rao last start, beaten over 12 lengths, after a fifth to Etre Doue when beaten eight and a half lengths, both times with market respect. One win and two places from five at this track and distance keep her a live improver third-up. |
9 TOMOHIRO YOSHIMURA |

SEI PAREL
MASAMICHI KASHIHARA 5YO GREY MARE 55.0KG Was close enough to do more last start but faded to eighth behind Ai Towa at Sonoda, beaten just over nine lengths at big odds. The start prior offered more, finishing third behind Star Of Adam, though still beaten seven lengths. She has placed twice from ten starts at this track and distance without winning, so others bring stronger credentials unless she improves late. |
