DANON CRUISER (5) finished just 0.8 lengths from the winner in second last start over 1600m at this track after racing handy. Won't find this as tough so he is perfectly placed to score. BLACK RED (4) last appeared four weeks ago over 1400m at Kanazawa when he finished second. This is his first run for the Hiroshi Takami stable. Worth serious consideration. SUIHEISEN (9) could only manage sixth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1400m at this track, beaten only 0.6 lengths. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. ARCH FLIGHT (8) is a strong fresh performer back after a break of three months and looking to emulate her win at Kawasaki to kick off the last campaign. One of the genuine hopes in the race.
