PERFUME SCENT (8) resumes today after filling a minor placing at her only appearance last prep at Chukyo over 2200m on March 28. Yet to miss th frame in nine runs including placing 4/4 here. Anticipating a bright start to this prep. STELLA CROWN (2) comes here off a break of nine weeks. Super consistent and boasts a strong fresh-up record. Look for a bold run. HO O TITAN (4) is putting together some solid results. Finished second at Chukyo two starts back then got the job done by 1.3 lengths as favourite last time out over 2000m at Fukushima. Osuke Tayama scored on her last time and retains the mount. Finds a tougher race but this looks well within her grasp. FIORE STRADA (1) raced on the speed from the outset and went to score by one length last time over 2000m at Fukushima. Is in solid form this time in work, scoring two times and placing on two occasions from eight starts. Can sneak into the finish.
