Verdict

DAICHINO NAPOLI (2) brings the most reliable profile, having worked home well for second at this track last start and already shown she handles this track and distance with one win and two placings from three tries. Her Open second two runs ago adds further substance, and she looks the horse they have to beat. MEISHO SHOKATSU (4) has been costly as favourite at both runs this campaign, but he was beaten less than a length last time and returns to a distance where his record is strong. SATONO AGUDO (3) has not missed a place in six starts and was beaten a nose at Hanshin, so his consistency keeps him firmly in the mix. LUCE BRILLARE (5) is lightly raced and has been well found in both Mdn runs, the first try around 1 ?m is the query, but her profile still gives her a genuine place path.

2	Worked home well for second at this track first-up, beaten just over a length by Sarakosth while near the top of an open market. She had also run second in Open company at this venue before the break, so the form has depth. One win and two placings from three starts at this track and distance is a major asset, and from a handy racing pattern she sets the standard here. 1st Pick 2 Daichino Napoli Jockey: R Takakura Trainer: Shogo Hatabata J: R Takakura T: Shogo Hatabata	118	-	-	-	20%	4/1

4	Kept grinding when fourth at this track over 1 ¼m last start, beaten just under a length by Kikko Bello as a well-supported favourite. His previous sixth at Hanshin was also sound enough without a sharp finish. The return to 1m suits, with one win and two placings from three starts at the distance, and he looks ready to peak third-up with a strong winning case. 2nd Pick 4 Meisho Shokatsu Jockey: H Miyuki Trainer: Mamoru Ishibashi J: H Miyuki T: Mamoru Ishibashi	167	-	-	-	20%	4/1

3	Has been rock-solid this campaign, finishing second at Hanshin in both runs and missing by a nose last start behind Lance Of Hero. He was well found in betting each time, so there is no surprise factor, but his record at around 1m is excellent with one win and four placings from five attempts. Third-up and back to a proven trip, he has the profile to be in the finish again. 3rd Pick 3 Satono Agudo Jockey: Ryusei Sakai Trainer: H Fujiwara J: Ryusei Sakai T: H Fujiwara	145	-	-	-	39%	13/8
