SEKITEI VIVI (2) is back after a break of five-and-a-half months. At the last run before the layoff she finished fourth over 1000m at this track. Has ability and can get off the mark. MO MO BLUE (10) made progress last time out, finishing 6 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1000m at this track after being in contention on the turn. Finds a suitable race and can find the winner's circle. FUKU SHINY (9) was never really a threat when resuming last start over 1200m at this track, finishing 10 lengths from the winner in seventh. Winning rider Masaaki Kuwamura stays aboard. Fitter and expected to run well. TEN ARION (8) showed good early dash and led for much of the way over this course and distance last time, eventually fading to finish fourth and beaten 4 lengths. Sure to give a sight.
