Verdict

YOMII (1) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 7f at this track, beaten 15 lengths after being in contention on the bend. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. SHINANO FLASH (8) was beaten just a nose last start when fresh from a spell and landed his first top-three finish in the process over this track and trip. Has taken a while to hit form but can open his account this time. ICHIGO PUDDING (6) made progress last time out, finishing 5 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 7f at this track after being in contention on the turn. Well placed and there is no reason she cannot find winning ways. MOMONO KOTONOHA (3) is a three-year-old filly who is still a maiden after seven starts but has been in the placings four times. Safely held when resuming last start over 7f at this track, finishing ninth and beaten 17 lengths. Should park just off the speed. One of the better hopes.
