TANA SUPERNOVA (8) got off the mark over 1200m at Kyoto last start, scoring by 1.5 lengths. Progressing well and this looks a very winnable assignment. PIERCED EARS (2) ran a strong third over 1200m at Fukushima two runs back then was below his best last time over 1400m when fifth, beaten 3.5 lengths. Kept fresh since that last run - can feature. RIPI (6) returned from a spell three weeks ago when she was beaten 5 lengths into sixth over 1400m at Hanshin. Fitter and sure to run well. LE BRILLANT (1) returns from a layoff of seven months for new trainer Ryo Takahashi. Filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1200m at Fukushima. Worth including.
