AMMIRAZIONE (7) was prominent on straightening and stuck on well to finish second last start over 1200m at this track, beaten one length as favourite. Likely improver with strong prospects. MAMA ARIGATO (1) finished 2.25 lengths away in fourth last time out over 900m at Kawasaki after being in contention on the corner three weeks ago. Tackles a longer journey this time. Solid winning chance. REESSAYEZ (3) is returning from a spell of three-and-a-half months. Finished eighth at Fukushima over 1200m at the first run last prep. Now with a new trainer Takanori Yamanaka. One of the genuine hopes in the race. WINDHOSE (9) returns from a layoff of five months. Scored over 1200m at this track at the start of last prep. Boasts a fine first-up record of three wins from four starts. Can make his presence felt.
