Verdict

RICKEY STYLE (7) was in the firing line on the turn and progressed nicely last start to finish a close second over 6f at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Nicely placed to take this out. ATSUKI YAMATO (2) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 6f at this track, beaten 3 lengths. Fitter so anticipating a better run this time. F EIGHT (6) has not won for a long while. Last raced on February 28 when beaten 6 lengths into seventh at Hanshin Dirt over 7f. Best figures measure up nicely. Can do a lot better. TOTATSU (12) is a promising galloper who resumes from a break. Last raced when third over 6f at this track seven months ago. Has won when fresh from a spell in the past. Can feature in the finish.
