Verdict

MANACOR (1) scored last time over this track and trip, making it three victories from six appearances this campaign. Strong record with Keita Nishi in the irons, including a win. Should be in the finish. O SHIN SCAT (10) was sent out favourite last time and was not far from the winner when fourth over 1m at Kawasaki after he was handy all the way. Won't be bothered by this longer journey. Among the leading chances. LYSINE (3) is resuming from a break of ten weeks for a new stable after finishing fourth over 1 ?m at Hanshin Dirt at his latest outing. Goes well when fresh with four wins and one minor placings from nine starts. Sure to be competitive. ALRISCHA (2) last appeared when successful by a nose over 1 ¼m at this track nine weeks ago, the only time he went to the races last prep. Yujiro Tanabata who has scored on him two times retains the mount. Don't underestimate.
