JUDY IMERU (1) was prominent at the corner and ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 1200m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Finds a suitable race and can figure in the finish. ARGYLE SHORE (3) is a six-start maiden who finished fifth, beaten 3 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1400m at Kyoto Dirt. Chance to break her maiden status with that run under her belt. MELIOR VIA (13) was in the firing line on the corner and finished third last time over 1400m at Kyoto Dirt when resuming from a spell, beaten 5.5 lengths. Nicely placed to take this out. KITANO PREMIUM (15) was in contention on the corner and finished second last time over 1200m at this track when resuming from a spell, beaten 2 lengths. Nicely placed to take this out.
