MAGIC ROSE (3) led throughout last time over 1700m at Kokura Dirt and scored a comfortable win. Can push forward again here and is a leading contender again. EL MAGO (10) is back from a break of three-and-a-half months. Put together back-to-back wins before going for a spell, the most recent at Tokyo over 1600m. Promising type and excels fresh. Expected to play a major role. MATENRO SON (14) resumed over 1200m at this track last start and was too good for his rivals, scoring by half a length. Open to plenty of improvement and is among the winning hopes again. DANON MISSION (9) is back at the races for the first time since April 25. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1600m at Nakayama. One to consider.
