Verdict

SHIOMIN (1) is back after a break of 12 weeks. At the last run before the layoff she finished 14th over 6f at Hanshin Dirt. Looks the one to beat. SABLE LOVE (2) returns after ten months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a tenth over 7 ½f at this track. Has ability and is a solid chance. HARUKA BIJIN (6) is a eight-start maiden who finished fourth over 4f at this track last time out after being in contention on the bend. Finds a suitable race and can figure in the finish. STAR BARON (10) is back from a break of nine weeks. Raced below par at his only appearance last prep when ninth over 7f at this track. Looks a strong top-three prospect.
