VALKYRIE BIRTH (6) is a progressive four-year-old filly who resumes from a break of three-and-a-half months. Grade 2 placed two back then scored in Listed grade last time. Christophe Lemaire who has scored on her two times retains the mount. Excels fresh and has the talent to take this out. KOGANENO SORA (12) went to the paddock after scoring at her only appearance last prep nine weeks ago over 1800m in the G3 Fukushima Himba. This is her optimum trip with five wins from seven starts and looks a top chance. ESTUPENDA (5) came from well back on cornering and hit the line strongly to score over 1800m at Niigata last time out. Takes on tougher opposition this time but she should be involved in the finish. WIN TWILIGHT (2) is a talented filly who was well held last time in tougher grade over 1400m in the G2 Keio Hai Spring Cup at this track. Record here is impressive with three wins from four starts. Solid claims on best form.
