Comments

Has completely lost form at the last two runs, finishing second last at this track last start when big odds and finished well held behind Meisho Hachiro. The start prior at Mizusawa was no better, dropping out after leading and being beaten over 15 lengths despite being near the top of betting. He has a strong 1600m record and past track-and-trip form, but current figures leave him with plenty to turn around.

Expected Settling Position: Off Pace

Returns from a lengthy spell after eight months, having ended the last campaign with a last of six at Mizusawa when beaten over 11 lengths by Grand Cozy. His previous fifth in A1A2 grade at Sonoda was more respectable, beaten four lengths after being swamped late. He has won four times around 1600m and gets in with 52kg, so a fresh showing would put him in the minor-money mix.

Comments

Was again safely held at this track last start, finishing second last and beaten over 13 lengths behind Vip Akua after giving away too much ground. The start prior was similar over 1200m, when seventh and beaten over 13 lengths by Black Storm. He is unplaced in three tries around 1600m and was behind Sarasa One and Waganse recently, so a major lift is required.

Comments

Has offered little in three runs this campaign, most recently ninth at this track when at long odds and beaten nine and a half lengths behind Vip Akua. Two starts ago he led narrowly into the lane but tired badly, finishing tenth and beaten over 10 lengths by Tosen Massimo. His career record has merit, but recent efforts make him hard to support with confidence.

Comments

Was below his best when fifth at this track last start, beaten seven and a half lengths behind Vip Akua after leading, but his overall profile remains strong. The run prior at Mizusawa was a dominant win over Magical Word as an odds-on favourite, and his record at this venue is outstanding. With Toshiki Yamamoto having won seven from nine on him, he has the right credentials to rebound.

Finished seventh at this track last start, beaten just over eight lengths by Vip Akua after being close enough before weakening. Her fourth here the run prior was sounder, beaten just under four lengths by Tosen Massimo, albeit at long odds. Yuri Takahashi knows her well and has won four times aboard her, but the 1600m record remains a genuine query for win purposes.

Returns from a lengthy spell after eight months, having finished tenth at this track when big odds and beaten over 11 lengths by Le Corsaire at the end of last campaign. His previous Mizusawa run was only fair, looming without going on and finishing fifth. He has long-standing 1600m credentials and is a track-and-trip winner, but recent race form leaves him with a fair bit to prove.

Comments

Was well beaten by 21 lengths at this track last start behind Meisho Hachiro and there was no obvious excuse after settling rearward. He had also been beaten over 11 lengths at Mizusawa the run before, working home fairly but never threatening. The broader record is much better than those runs, with 15 wins and 21 places from 50 starts, so he is a place hope only if he rebounds sharply.

Expected Settling Position: Midfield

Comments

Has been racing well enough to be a major player, finishing fourth at this track last start when beaten three and a half lengths by Vip Akua. Two starts ago he went close behind Tosen Massimo, beaten half a length after tracking into the race and fighting strongly. He beat Waganse at this venue a couple of weeks ago and his career record gives him a solid winning platform.

Comments

Worked home evenly for third at Morioka last start, beaten six and a half lengths behind Mozu Maverick, and that followed a fourth to the same winner when fair to the line. She is third-up now and has one win and one placing from four starts at the distance, which keeps her competitive for a placing. Winning may be a stretch, but she is building a serviceable case.

Picked up nicely late when sixth at this track last start, beaten four and a half lengths by Tosen Massimo, but he was unwanted in the market and still failed to threaten. The Mizusawa run prior was another midfield sixth, beaten five and a half lengths after giving away ground. He has won at this track and distance, though present form suggests he must find another gear.

Comments

Returns from a six-week let-up with the strongest recent profile, having been beaten just over half a length at Mizusawa last start after being pipped late. The start prior he beat Break Bounds by seven lengths as an odds-on favourite, and his record at this track and distance is excellent. With Shinobu Murakami also boasting seven wins on him, he is the benchmark runner and the one they must beat.
