Second-up. Comes off a 43-day let-up. First-up after four months ran last of 12 at Kyoto in the G3 Kyoto Sho Fantasty Stakes on November 1 over 1400m, 16 len behind Festival Hill carrying 55.0kg at $56.60. Previously second-up won by 1.0 len at Kokura July 19 over 1200m defeating Daichino Napoli carrying 55.0kg at $5.50. Unlikely to threaten.

Last start 6th of 11 at Kyoto on November 30 over 1600m, 6 len behind Margot Love Me with 55.0kg at $22.60. The race before that 6th of 10 at Tokyo in the G3 Artemis Stakes on October 25 over 1600m, 4 len behind Firostefani carrying 55.0kg at $70.70. Prefer to watch at this stage.

Lining up for just third start. At debut, won by 0.5 len at Niigata August 30 over 1400m defeating Masticare with 55.0kg at $9.80. Last start 2nd of 10 at Tokyo in the G3 Artemis Stakes on October 25 over 1600m, 1.75 len behind Firostefani with 55.0kg at $60.90. Just missed in stakes class last time at first try at the mile. Drawn for a good run and couldn't surprise at odds.

Resuming. Finished off last preparation favourite; won by 3.5 len at this track September 20 over 1600m defeating Switch In Love with 55.0kg at $1.80. Won previous preparation first up favourite; scored a big 4 len win at Fukushima July 5 over 1800m defeating Silver Gold carrying 55.0kg at $1.30. Two starts for two effortless wins so far. Course and distance winner last time as a hot favourite. Has big upside and can make it a winning hat-trick.

Resuming after a three months break. Not seen since winning by neck this track September 13 over 1800m defeating Matenro Gale carrying 55.0kg at $2.40. On debut second of 12 at Niigata August 10 over 1800m, 2 len behind Hornero with 55.0kg at $3.40. Fought on bravely to score maiden win last run before a spell. Far tougher here but honest and will push forward.

Resuming after a 11 weeks break. Finished off last campaign winning by 1.3 len Nakayama September 28 over 1600m defeating Beret Basque carrying 55.0kg at $4.50. On debut second of 10 at this track June 22 over 1600m, 0.5 len behind Festival Hill with 55.0kg at $4.60. Narrowly beaten on debut then unbeaten in two runs since. Will have come on since the break and trip suits fresh. Looks a definite danger.

Puts an unbeaten record on the line. On debut, won by 2 len at Kyoto October 11 over 1400m defeating Naomini All In carrying 55.0kg at $13.70. Last start won by 3 len at Kyoto November 30 over 1600m defeating Sweet Happiness carrying 55.0kg at $3.80. Two very good wins from two tries. This is much stiffer test but leading rider goes on and drawn better. Should be right in the finish.

Chasing a hat-trick. Last start won by 1.75 len at Tokyo November 23 over 1600m defeating Poppet carrying 55.0kg at $8.80. The start before that won by 0.8 len at Tokyo October 25 over 1600m defeating Daiyu Venti carrying 55.0kg at $5.40. Speedy filly who has led throughout to win her last two and can give a sight at odds.

Resuming after a three-and-a-half months break. Finished off last campaign second of 13 at Chukyo in the G3 Nisai Stakes August 31 over 1400m, a neck behind Candide carrying 55.0kg at $1.70. On debut fifth of 10 at Kokura June 29 over 1200m, 3 len behind Coral Reef carrying 55.0kg at $5.70. Won maiden in a demolition then dug deep and just missed latest. First try at the trip but can go on to better things this campaign.

Having third race start. At debut, 4th of 18 at Tokyo on October 18 over 1400m, 1.3 len behind Epic Queen with 55.0kg at $14.60. Second-up favourite; won by 0.8 len at Tokyo November 16 over 1400m defeating Misty Yunibansu with 55.0kg at $2.60. Not doing enough to threaten the top few today.

Raced two times to date. At debut, won by a neck at Kyoto October 18 over 1600m defeating Timeless Kiss carrying 55.0kg at $17.90. Last start 2nd of 11 at Kyoto on November 30 over 1600m, 3 len behind Margot Love Me with 55.0kg at $5.80. Can't see her troubling these.

Returns from a 43-day let-up. At the latest run sat behind the speed prior to fading 7th of 12 at Kyoto in the G3 Kyoto Sho Fantasty Stakes on November 1 over 1400m, 4 len behind Festival Hill carrying 55.0kg at $12. The run before that won by a neck at Kyoto October 13 over 1600m defeating Thunder Bird with 55.0kg at $4.20. Might just find this lot a bit smart.

Third race start today. When well in the market at debut, 2nd of 10 at Chukyo on August 30 over 1400m, 0.8 len behind Fleur Sienne carrying 55.0kg at $3.80. Second-up won by a head at Kyoto October 25 over 1400m defeating Namura Cosmos with 55.0kg at $4.60. Can't make much of a case.

Freshened since getting off the mark on debut; won by a neck at Tokyo October 13 over 1800m defeating Pod Cross with 55.0kg at $30.60. Can't dismiss winning form but will find this tougher.

She is resuming after a ten weeks break. Finished off last preparation winning by neck Kyoto October 4 over 1400m defeating Meisho Hakkei with 55.0kg at $18.80. On debut second of 12 at Sapporo August 10 over 1500m, a neck behind Dolce Misto carrying 55.0kg at $17.40. Hard to recommend.

Last start 5th of 12 at Sonoda on November 27 over 1400m, 7 len behind Tokai Ma Cherie with 55kg at $2.40. Before that favourite; won by 1.5 len at Kyoto Dirt October 18 over 1400m defeating Brontes carrying 55.0kg at $5.20. Wide draw makes it tough.

Form hard to fault. Comes here off a 50-day let-up. Most recently 3rd of 10 at Tokyo in the G3 Artemis Stakes on October 25 over 1600m, 2 len behind Firostefani with 55.0kg at $6.10. Before that 2nd of 10 at Niigata in the G3 Niigata Nisai Stakes on August 24 over 1600m, 4 len behind Realize Sirius with 55.0kg at $12.70. Honest type who has placed in stakes class last two. Don't underestimate.

Second run back. Comes off a 43-day let-up. First-up after two months ran on from midfield; 2nd of 12 at Kyoto in the G3 Kyoto Sho Fantasty Stakes on November 1 over 1400m, neck behind Festival Hill with 55.0kg at $48. Previously second-up 4th of 8 at Hakodate on July 5 over 1200m, 5.5 len behind Tokai Ma Cherie with 55.0kg at $4.80. Just missed in stakes grade last time and fitter again. First try at the trip and tricky gate to overcome.
