MAKE ONE'S DAY (5) missed the placings two starts back when resuming then ran a better race and finished 4 lengths away in fifth last time out over 1200m at Hanshin after being prominent at the corner. Worth noting Fuma Matsuwaka goes aboard. Speedster well draw and is the one to catch. MICHAEL BAROWS (1) is a promising type who hasn't raced since finishing 5.5 lengths away in eighth over 1400m at KYOTO Dirt on February 7. Has won when fresh from a spell in the past. Rates highly and expected to go well. MARGOT MIST (8) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race and finished 2.25 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1200m at Hanshin. Likely improver with strong prospects. WATER SAGRADA (3) closed last prep 11 weeks ago when he finished fourth over 1200m at Nakayama Dirt. Strong top-three chance.
