One of the top three picks should be winning. HABILE (7) produced a nice effort on debut in better company last start over 1800m at Hanshin Dirt when second, beaten 2 lengths. Likely improver who clearly has an edge on this field. MEETHAQ (3) stepped out on his debut over 1800m at Hanshin seven weeks ago and finished sixth, beaten 1.75 lengths. Looms as a threat with race experience now on board. FORTINBRAS (6) was unwanted in betting on debut last start but ran a strong race, finishing third and beaten 2.75 lengths over 1800m at this track. Has ability and is not out of this by any means. WATER HAKUBI (5) ran a better race last time at his second career start when fifth over 1900m at this track. Fitter and can sneak into the frame.
