DEEP REMEMBER (7) has the clearest winning profile after running second to Red Seeker on debut at this track, beaten just over a length as favourite. The step to 1800m is new, but he has already shown enough race sense and closing substance to make him the one to beat. BLACK MUSE (5) resumes from three months off and her recent sevenths read plainly, yet she has placed two times from four starts overall and two times from three on turf, so her best form keeps her right in the race. POKAPOKA YOKI (4) is race fit and has placed in both starts, though the seven-and-a-half-length defeat as a well-supported favourite at Hanshin Dirt tempers the winning case. AEOLIS PALUS (8) was pipped at the post here last start and had also placed at Kokura, giving her the most reliable each-way profile among the dangers.
