Verdict

MONATO (5) maiden galloper in first campaign. Unplaced at all three runs, the latest when sixth over 7 ½f at this track two weeks ago. Terrific chance to find some form. PIENA VIVA SAMBA (3) didn't feature last start when 15th over 6f at Hanshin Dirt. Won't find this as tough so he is perfectly placed to feature. HOUSE ON FIRE (10) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 7f at Tokyo Dirt. Strips fitter and finds easier. BEAR FORCE ONE (9) is a four-start maiden who resumed from a spell last start and was 11th over 6f at Nakayama Dirt. Will derive great benefit from that outing and deserves consideration in this suitable race.
