CHUM BERRY (1) has not raced since her debut back on August 3 when she finished fifth over 1000m at Morioka Dirt. Expected to improve and will pay to follow up. SISTER BLACK (6) missed the placings two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1300m at this track, beaten 3 lengths after being in contention on the bend. Has her share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. YUKINO REX (7) is a four-start maiden who is well and truly overdue, finishing third at this track over 1300m last time out after being prominent at the bend. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. SPEED BLUSH (5) was in a rearwards position on the turn last time out before finishing in fifth over 1000m at Morioka Dirt. Should be about the money.
