3rd (2) Queen's Melissa	5	Kyosuke Kokubun	Hiroshi Miyamoto	First up after a break. Started $151.00 and came in 6th last start here but can find a nice position from the draw. Likely to get back in the field. Others make far more appeal.
1st (3) Diretor	4	Yutaka Take	Mikio Matsunaga	Zipped home into 3rd beaten by 4 1/4L last start at Nakayama. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Would rather look at others.
2nd (9) Parashurama	3	Fuma Matsuwaka	Tamio Hamada	Close up last time at Hanshin and strong performer at this distance in the past. Should come to hand quickly. In good order since resuming from a break. Marginal contender.
(1) Sunrise Amour	4	Kenichi Ikezoe	Shinya Kobayashi	First up and displayed good finishing speed when 2nd first up last preparation at Hanshin. Suited at this trip historically. Drawn beautifully. Should go close.
(4) Satono Tempest	5	Ryuji Wada	Ryou Takahashi	Ran past a few when 4th last run at Hanshin and strong form at this distance. Possible place chance.
(5) Namura Frank	4	Hideaki Miyuki	Takashi Suzuki	Rocketed home when winning last run at Hanshin and form has been improving over recent runs. Will not be far away.
(6) Vagabond	5	Kohei Matsuyama	Hisashi Shimizu	First up after 8 weeks and was quite a handful for the competition when 2nd beaten by 3/4L first up last preparation at this track. Displays good tactical speed. Prefer a race with softer competition.
(7) Alpha Mom	4	Atsuya Nishimura	Shozo Sasaki	Resuming. Finished 10th last start at Tokyo. Should bounce back and hard to fault at this trip. Has good finishing speed. Back to a shorter trip. Modest hope.
(8) Meisho Tensui	6	Taiga Tsunoda	Hiroshi Kawachi	Resumes from a spell. Jumped at $126.00 and weakened to finish 11th last run at Tokyo. Has early speed and positions nicely. Cannot be tipped.
(10) Z Rayon	4	Manabu Sakai	Naohiro Yoshida	First up and finished well when winning first up last preparation at Hanshin. Watching with interest.
(11) Jasper Gold	5	Kanta Taguchi	Hideyuki Mori	Second run back from a spell. Lost ground in the run home when 10th last time at Nakayama. Most likely not today.
(12) Red Gale	4	Mirco Demuro	Takahisa Tezuka	First up from a spell. Ran 7th last run around here. Capable of bouncing back. Betting is the best guide.
(13) Jasper Prince	8	Taisei Danno	Hideyuki Mori	Had a break from racing and returns to competition. Faded away to finish 13th last start at Hanshin and coming back in distance. Not threatening these.

2nd (4) Machikaze	3	Taiga Tsunoda	Haruki Sugiyama	Fresh after a break. Gave ground when 5th last time around here. Expecting to settle positively. Can feature in this event.
1st (2) Cinq Feuilles	4	Atsuya Nishimura	Mitsumasa Nakauchida	First run back from a 28 week break. Improved when 4th last start at Hanshin and drawn nicely. Right in this.
3rd (1) Seven Summit	5	Kohei Matsuyama	Masayuki Nishimura	First up from a spell. Outmatched in the closing stages when 5th last run at Chukyo and drawn the rails. Down in trip. Serious contender.
(3) Requin	3	Hideaki Miyuki	Kenta Fujino	First up from a break. Folded up in the straight when 14th last time at Hanshin. Coming to a new trainer. Displays good tactical speed. Looks hopeful.
(5) Le Vine Noir	5	Kanta Taguchi	Yasushi Shono	Third run this campaign. Picked up nicely to win last start at Hanshin. Prefers to settle towards the rear. A demanding task.
(6) Navarone	4	Toshiki Akiyama	Yoshiaki Sugiyama	Having third run back from a break. Was $71.00 and couldn't maintain the pace when 15th last start at Fukushima but returning to more ground. Struggle to recommend.
(7) Talentueuse	3	Ryoya Kozaki	Ryuji Okubo	Third run back from a spell. Didn't threaten when 12th last start at Hanshin. Capable of bouncing back. Has shown early pace in races to date. Knockout chance.
(8) Raison Du Sourire	5	Fuma Matsuwaka	Yasuyuki Tsujino	Back after a spell. Close to claiming the win last time at Chukyo. Do not dismiss.
(9) Red Valentia	3	Yusuke Fujioka	Daiki Yajima	Second up and finished hard to win second up last preparation at Kokura. Has definite claims.
(10) Shomon	3	Mirco Demuro	Shinsuke Hashiguchi	Resumes after a break. Tailed off to finish 15th last time at Hanshin. The wide alley shouldn't be a problem with plenty of early speed. Prefer in something weaker.
