Info	OR	Days since last run	Age	Jockey
3rd (12) Do Force	2	Kota Fujioka	Yasuo Tomomichi	Was $6.5 and couldn't stay in touch when 11th last start at Chukyo on a good surface and resumes from a spell. Does take a while to get into stride. Tough ask.
1st (5) Gun Wolf	2	Yusuke Fujioka	Kenichi Fujioka	Kept boxing on when 3rd last start at Kokura on a good surface and fresh today. Should enjoy a cosy run off the pace. One of the main chances. Respect.
2nd (15) A Shin Resume	2	Hayato Yoshida	Hidemasa Nakao	Nice effort to run into 2nd last start at Kyoto but has very good finishing speed. Tracking very well this preparation. Great chance.
(1) Botanical Garden	2	Mirai Iwata	Hirofumi Shii	Managed to finish 2nd last run but will appreciate a good draw. Represents significant value.
(2) Tagano Duri	2	Ryuji Wada	Shota Nishizono	Started at $17 and hit the line well when 5th last run at Kyoto and can find a nice position from the draw. Having second run back from a spell. Not threatening these.
(3) Windsor Roar	2	Yuji Hishida	Yoshito Yahagi	Finished with intent when 3rd last time at Kyoto. Third run back from a spell. Look for a better price late if pondering a wager on this.
(4) Strasse	2	Kanta Taguchi	Haruki Sugiyama	Started $66 and performed below standard when 11th last run at Chukyo. First up today. Very unlikely to cause an upset.
(6) Land Titan	2	Hideaki Miyuki	Akio Adachi	Caught the eye when 3rd last start at Kyoto on a good surface. Gets back and needs luck. Watch the betting.
(7) Real Edge	2	Fuma Matsuwaka	Hidetaka Otonashi	Jumped at $5 and clearly outclassed when 6th last start at Chukyo. Resuming. Best to watch and see.
(8) Kurino Falcon	2	Kota Washizu	Masahiro Matsunaga	Odds of $120 and moderate showing when 12th last time at this track. Had a break from racing and returns to competition. Prefer others.
(9) Mystic Power	2	Norihiro Yokoyama	Koichi Shintani	Odds of $20 and showed promise while moving through the field when 4th last start at Tokyo on a good track but still a maiden after 8 runs. Might have to make up considerable ground. Not the worst.
(10) Chile Serrano	2	Takashi Fujikake	Osamu Hirata	At $9 faded away to finish 7th last run at Chukyo on a good rated track but fitter for debut run. Back after a spell. Most likely not today.
(11) Meisho Taiju	2	Ken Tanaka	Kunihiko Watanabe	At $34 finished 8th last run at Kokura but coming to a new trainer. Racing fresh after a break. Hard to see this being competitive today.
(13) Eugenie	2	Kohei Matsuyama	Yoshiaki Sugiyama	Yoshiaki Sugiyama 3yo runner on debut by Le Havre. Betting is the best guide.
(14) Various	2	Ryusei Sakai	Hisashi Shimizu	Hisashi Shimizu trained 3yo by Drefong having first race appearance. Watch the market.
(16) Dominate City	2	Taisei Danno	Yutaka Okumura	Resumes from a break. Started at $31 and chased strongly when 5th last time around here. Can't have today.

2nd (9) Miyaji Charmant	2	Kohei Matsuyama	Yoshihiko Kawamura	Started at $6.5 and hit the line well when 4th last run at Chukyo but first run back from a break. Gets a nice run behind the speed. Definite contender.
3rd (3) Porte D'or	2	Mirai Iwata	Yasutoshi Ikee	Odds of $11 and finished 4th last start at Kyoto but should jump out and bowl along. Having second run back from a break. Value play.
1st (12) Waterhouse	2	Katsuma Sameshima	Tomokazu Takano	Despite being overrun still placed 2nd last run here. Fresh after a spell. Solid chance to come away with the spoils.
(1) T M Typhoon	2	Ken Tanaka	Hidenori Take	At $76 faded to finish 12th last start at Kyoto but third up. Expected to settle towards the rear. Will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Very unlikely.
(2) Meisho Suikei	2	Kaito Kawabata	Yoshiyuki Arakawa	Odds of $436 and only fair when 13th last time at Niigata and yet to fire this campaign. Likely to settle back in the field. Drawn nicely. Prefer a return to something a lot easier.
(4) Meisho Ranzan	2	Yoshihiro Furukawa	Mikio Matsunaga	Started at $11 and lost ground in the run home when 10th last run at Kyoto on a good rated track. Need a lot of luck to be close to winning this.

(6) Meisho Ojima	2	Yamato Tsunoda	Mamoru Ishibashi	Started $59 and unsatisfactory performance when 10th last start here. Had a break from racing and returns to competition. Could sneak a place.

(10) Get A Million	2	Hideaki Miyuki	Koichi Shintani	Showed a good turn of foot when 2nd last time at Niigata. Second run back from a spell. Stronger amount the place bet advised.
(11) Bateau Bonheur	2	Atsuya Nishimura	Yasushi Shono	Odds of $75 and average at best when 14th last time at this venue. Would not recommend.
(13) Kurino Condor	2	Yuya Mizuguchi	Norio Fujisawa	Started $691 and weakened to finish 13th last start at Kyoto on a good rated track. Gets back and needs luck. Pass.
(14) Ken Weissach	2	Kota Washizu	Hiroyuki Oneda	Honest race when 3rd last run at Sonoda. Second run this preparation. Better to look elsewhere.
(15) Toho Glanz	2	Ryoya Kozaki	Yoshihiko Kawamura	At $331 didn't find the line when 11th last start at Kyoto but third up from a spell. Does take a while to get into stride. Very weak selection.

3rd (11) Eranthis	2	Fuma Matsuwaka	Haruki Sugiyama	Couldn't maintain the momentum throughout when 3rd last time at Kyoto on a good rated track. Looks too good.
(1) Rapide Belle	2	Mirai Iwata	Mitsunori Makiura	Jumped at $4.2 and faded to finish 12th last start at this venue on a good rated track but will appreciate a good gate. First up from a spell. Would be more keen on the chance of others.
(2) Primo Cavallo	2	Yamato Tsunoda	Yuji Iida	At $18 lost ground in the run home when 10th last start at Chukyo but can find a nice position from the draw. Resuming. Can't back with any confidence.

(6) B I Black	2	Koji Nishizuka	Kazuya Makita	Started at $125 and didn't find the line when 16th last time at Chukyo on a good surface but fitter for debut run. Fresh after a spell. Won't find this easy.
(7) Shiawaseno Ashioto	2	Takashi Fujikake	Osamu Hirata	Odds of $62 and below expectations when 13th last run at this track and resumes after a break. Likely to get back. Best to watch only.
(8) Aoi Dahlia	2	Ryoya Kozaki	Yasuyuki Takahashi	Started $483 and average at best when 12th last run around here. Does take a while to get into stride. Not likely to be troubling the more fancied runners today.

(14) Key Margaret	2	Kaito Kawabata	Norio Fujisawa	Norio Fujisawa 3yo debutant by Nero. Betting is the best guide.
(15) Meisho Ballad	2	Ryuji Wada	Kodai Hasegawa	At $67 performed below standard when 4th last run at Kyoto. Second run this preparation. Needs a lot of luck to figure in the finish.
(16) Needless To Say	2	Ryusei Sakai	Keiji Yoshimura	Having second run back from a spell. Applied plenty of pressure when 3rd last run at Kyoto. Significant each way value and can go close at a decent price.

(13) Navarone	3	Kiwamu Ogino	Yoshiaki Sugiyama	Shot clear to win last time at Fukushima. Look for a better price late if pondering a wager on this.
(14) Sylpheed Reve	2	Manabu Sakai	Masato Nishizono	Reeled them in to win last time at Kyoto. Does take a while to get into stride. Has a slight chance.
(15) Billecart	2	Akira Sugawara	Takahiro Mizuno	Secured the win by a slim margin last time at Nakayama. Back from a spell. Not the worst.

3rd (9) Admire Hadar	4	Mirai Iwata	Ryuji Okubo	Did well to place 2nd last run but having third run back from a spell. Expected to settle towards the tail. Ideal trip as proven previously. Chance at odds.
1st (12) Boccherini	6	Suguru Hamanaka	Yasutoshi Ikee	Put in a competitive run when placing 2nd last start at Nakayama and returning to a shorter trip. Had a break from racing and returns to competition. Price in this race is tempting to get involved.
2nd (4) Feengrotten	3	Fuma Matsuwaka	Hiroshi Miyamoto	Overrun late when 2nd last time at Chukyo. Fresh from a break. Each way claims in this race.
(1) Gratias	4	Yuichi Kitamura	Keisuke Miyata	Odds of $35 and unsatisfactory performance when 12th last time at Kyoto but third up from a break. Prefers to settle towards the rear. Suited at this distance in the past. Suggest watching.
(2) Karate	6	Akira Sugawara	Yasuyuki Tsujino	Second run back from a spell. Finished with purpose when winning last start at Niigata but gets a favourable draw. Good each way prospects.
(3) Diamant Minoru	5	Kota Fujioka	Masaru Honda	At $53 sub-standard effort when 14th last run at Tokyo but third run this prep. Gets back and needs luck. Cannot have under these circumstances.
(5) Mozu Bello	6	Hideaki Miyuki	Naoyuki Morita	Jumped at $17 and showed talent finishing with a strong effort when 4th last start at Niigata. Will be giving the leaders a big start. Not interested.
(6) Impress	3	Katsuma Sameshima	Shozo Sasaki	Was $21 and moderate showing when 10th last time at Tokyo. Expected to settle towards the rear. Needs significant improvement.
(7) Maria Elena	4	Kohei Matsuyama	Naohiro Yoshida	Jumped at $13 and solid effort when 5th last run at the track on a good track. Back after break. Should run into the placings at least.
(8) Wonderful Town	4	Ryuji Wada	Yoshitada Takahashi	Jumped at $320 and unimpressive effort when 14th last run at this track and resuming from a spell. Likely to get back in the run. Need a lot of luck to be close to winning this.
(10) Satono Lux	6	Kiwamu Ogino	Yasutoshi Ikee	At $42 couldn't stay in touch when 15th last run at Tokyo and first up from a break of. Prefers to settle towards the tail. Back in trip. This one has a big task. Rough hope.
(11) Hindu Times	6	Yutaka Take	Takashi Saito	Was $149 and folded up in the straight when 16th last time around here and resumes after a spell. Does take a while to get into stride. Respect the betting.
(13) Meiner Fanrong	7	Ryusei Sakai	Takahisa Tezuka	Odds of $64 and mediocre display when 8th last run at Nakayama and racing fresh today after a break. Might have to make up considerable ground. Returns to a shorter trip. May find these too slick.
(14) So Valiant	4	Christophe Lemaire	Masahiro Otake	Started $2.3 and tailed off to finish 9th last run at Nakayama but hard to fault at this distance. First up. Will go close.
(15) Scar Face	6	Atsuya Nishimura	Kazuya Nakatake	Started $51 and disappointing display when 13th last run at Nakayama and fresh after a spell. Likely to get back. Needs to find a lot more.

(4) Gempachi Leonidas	3	Katsuma Sameshima	Mitsunori Makiura	Started at $46 and not up to scratch when 7th last start at Fukushima. Second run this preparation. Take on trust.
(6) Misuzu Major	4	Yoshihiro Furukawa	Hiroyuki Uemura	Started at $74 and lost ground in the run home when 9th last start at Kyoto on a good rated track but races well second up. Expected to settle towards the tail. Hard to take.

(14) Phrasemaker	4	Hideaki Miyuki	Toru Kurita	Started at $15 and weakened to finish 7th last time at Nakayama on a good surface but proven runner at this distance. Having second run back from a break. Prefer in something weaker.
