YAMANIN COLZA (9) faced the starter for the first time and finished sixth last start at Kyoto Dirt over 1400m, beaten 7 lengths. Expected to improve and will pay to follow up. MAKNOS (2) finished fourth two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1800m at Kyoto Dirt, beaten 3 lengths after being in the firing line on the turn. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. HAPPY BANK (12) returns after four months in the paddock. Closed the last campaign with a fifth over 1400m at Kyoto Dirt. Has ability and is a leading player. DREAM CARRY (10) comes here off a break of 12 weeks. Worth noting she filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1600m at Kawasaki. Has found the right race to launch this prep.
