C'ESTBON CADESSERT (5) wound up strongly but just failed to pick up the winner when first-up last start over 1700m at Hakodate Dirt. Sure to derive great benefit from that run. Ready to go one better. BELLAGIO WORLD (8) is going well with two minor placings from three starts this campaign. Turned in another good performance last time out when third over 1600m at Tokyo Dirt. Nicely placed to find winning ways. HIGH QUALITY (7) registered a strong win at Niigata Dirt two runs ago. Fair effort last time out when prominent at the turn before finishing second over 1700m at Fukushima Dirt, beaten 0.8 lengths. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. LIFE GATE (9) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing ninth at Hakodate Dirt over 1700m. Each-way hope in a race with a long tail.
