MARRON LUPINUS (8) got the prize two runs ago at this track. Safely held last time out when sixth over 1400m at Kawasaki, beaten 5.5 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role. REIWA EPOCH (3) finished ninth two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1500m at Funabashi, beaten 2 lengths after being in contention on the corner. Taking on a better field but she is capable of running a bold race. KITASAN EPONA (10) hit the frame when resuming two runs back at this track but couldn't back it up last start when sixth, beaten 11 lengths, over 1500m at this track. Nicely placed to turn things around. M T LILAS (9) failed to threaten when fresh from a spell last time out, beaten 12 lengths into seventh over 1400m at this track. Second-up record is sound. Should be in the finish. Can feature with the right run.
