TAGANO ABBY (5) resumes today after filling a minor placing at her only appearance last prep at Chukyo over 2000m on August 16. Strong record with Y Fujioka aboard, including two wins. Among the leading chances. YO HIN (10) went to the paddock after scoring at her only appearance last prep nine weeks ago over 2000m at Fukushima. Katsuma Sameshima who has scored on her two times retains the mount. Sure to run well. WILL SURVIVE (2) produced a good run two starts back to finish second but failed to live up to market expectations last time when out of the placings at this track over the same trip. Has the class to take care of this field. TELEOS SARAH (8) returns after a spell of six months. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1800m at Nakayama. Looks a strong top-three prospect.
