AIZUMI SAKURA (1) put the writing on the wall with back-to-back placings then pushed forward and went on to record a determined win last start by one length at this course and distance. Should be up on the speed from the low draw. Nicely placed to take this out. FUKUSHIMA GINROSSO (12) has put together a string of top-two finishes, the latest coming when second over 1500m at this track. Should race just off the speed despite the wide draw. Major player. BEL AIR KING (6) hasn't raced since finishing 11th over 1400m at Chukyo Dirt on August 31 and has since switched trainers. Generally runs well when fresh, recording two minor placings from three runs and is much better placed dropping from JRA level. SISTER NEBULA (3) finished third last start at this track, beaten 1.75 lengths. Could peak third up.
