Verdict

NANAMI (2) landed her maiden success over this course and distance last time, scoring by 3 lengths. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Nicely drawn and she is a key runner. DONA SOLAIRE (1) has been safely held at her last couple of runs, the latest when 12th over 5f at Kokura Dirt. Has struggled on the JRA circuit recently but is better placed here. FORTITUDE (5) didn't do a bad job when third last start after being in contention on the corner over 4f at Urawa, beaten 0.6 lengths. That followed a win at Urawa the start prior. Finds a tougher race but she has the talent to test this line-up. ARC OF LIFE (9) showed good early speed over 4 ½f at this track last time and went on to salute by 3 lengths. Can sneak into the finish again.
