MEISHO SHIROGANE (10) has put together a couple of wins at this course, the latest on January 10 over 1300m when he got home by 2 lengths. Winning rider Kondo Shogetsu retains the mount. Faces an easier assignment so he is one of the main contenders. IEDE GOROGORO (4) went back early from her wide draw over 1400m at this track last time but hit the line strongly to finish sixth. Leading player. ONE LEON (7) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 4 lengths into fourth after being prominent at the corner. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. MALOCA OF JAGUAR (1) ran well despite being friendless in betting last time over 1600m at this track, finishing fourth and beaten 0.7 lengths at $40.60. Can make an impact again.
