Verdict

GYLFI (6) brings the clearest winning profile after resuming with a fifth in the G3 Sirius Stakes at Hanshin Dirt, beaten a length and a half by Walzer Schall while strong in betting. His overall record is excellent, he is proven around 1 ?m, and Yutaka Take has won four times on him, so he has a solid platform to improve second-up. OGINO KANAME (8) was never a winning hope in the Listed Green Channel Cup at Tokyo Dirt but kept working and now gets weight relief, the 1 ?m record is not dominant, yet his recent level keeps him right in the race. GOLDEN CLOUD (13) was beaten as favourite first-up at Nakayama Dirt, though third to Hanauma Beach was still sound, and his two wins and one placing from three starts at this track and distance are a major asset. REALIZE CAMION (5) resumes with a strong career strike rate and beat Gylfi at Tokyo Dirt earlier this year, but must put a plain G3 Heian Stakes run at this venue behind him.

8	Worked home honestly when sixth in the Listed GREEN CHANNEL CUP at Tokyo Dirt, beaten four and a half lengths by Don Erectus after starting at long odds. The rise back to 1m is not a new task, though his record at the trip is only fair. Weight relief helps, and that latest stakes effort gives him a strong platform to be a major player. 2nd Pick 8 Ogino Kaname Jockey: Yusuke Hara Trainer: N Takagi J: Yusuke Hara T: N Takagi	60	-	-	-	1%	100/1

13	Back after five weeks following a first-up third at Nakayama Dirt, beaten just under three lengths by Hanauma Beach as a well-supported favourite. He was not a real threat late, but his career consistency is outstanding and he is unbeaten from a place perspective at this track and distance. With Christophe Lemaire aboard, he is a strong winning danger. 3rd Pick 13 Golden Cloud Jockey: Christophe Lemaire Trainer: Shinya Kobayashi J: Christophe Lemaire T: Shinya Kobayashi	115	-	-	-	17%	5/1
