A SHIN QUANTUM (10) has been in the placings his past two starts, finishing second over 1580m at this track last time out. Tatsuya Watanabe who has four wins when partnering stays on. Best form puts him right in this. LUXE WARRIOR (1) built on a nice second two starts back at this track with a win as public elect over 1600m at this track six weeks ago, getting home by 0.8 lengths. Katsuto Maruno scored on him last time and retains the mount. Can win again. NIHONPIRO REACH (8) has been kept fresh since an all-the-way win over 1400m at this track. Will be looking to cross again and will be in this for a long way. JOLLY MEMORY (3) did a great job to score by one length over this course and distance last start in a far better run. The engagement of Myojo Haru Dai is noteworthy. Taking on a better line-up this time but he can get the job done.
