FLARE OF SENSE (4) is still a maiden after 10 starts. Managed to fill a minor placing at Hanshin two starts back before finishing fourth over 2000m at KOKURA last time. Can break through in this suitable contest. ULTRA HEART (8) is a genuine type with three minor placings from three starts this campaign. Was prominent throughout and finished 8 lengths from the winner in third at the latest outing over 1800m at Hanshin Dirt. Must be included on the strength of that form. SATONO LIGHTNING (10) is a well-related three-year-old colt making his first appearance at the races. By Thunder Snow from Ciliege who has produced some fine gallopers, including a winner at the elite level. Promising type who is one to keeps tabs on in the betting. LILY THUNDER (6) gave away a big start at the top of the straight last start and finished 13 lengths from the winner in eighth over 1800m at Hanshin Dirt. Likely to be thereabouts.
