LANCE OF SIHR (9) raced on the speed when resuming last start and battled on well but found one better over 1400m at this track. Goes well at this trip, recording five minor placings from six attempts. Races best here and should be right there at the finish. DON PASSIONE (4) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1200m at this track, beaten only 1.4 lengths into fifth. Nicely placed to get the prize. MEISHO DRIVE (6) was in contention on the bend and finished third last start at the first run back from a spell over 1200m at this track, beaten 0.6 lengths. H Miyuki gets the best out of this four-year-old filly. Likely improver with solid claims. URUS CHROME (5) has not appeared since he finished seventh over 1400m at Hanshin Dirt on March 22. Has found the right race to launch this prep and is worth including.
