Verdict

LUPO (6) is a three-start maiden who returned last time and finished eighth at Kyoto Dirt over 6f, beaten 5.5 lengths. Fitter and will enjoy the drop from JRA level so is capable of taking this out. BRIGHT DREAM (5) finished fourth two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 7 ½f at this track, beaten 3 lengths after being prominent at the bend. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. LA MIA MELODIA (7) is back at the races for the first time since March 2. Worth noting she filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 5f at Monbetsu. One to consider. CANAL REINA (10) drifted back over 7f here last time before winding up late to finish fifth, beaten 4 lengths. Among the chances.
