Races ORM Nagoya - JAP

Tailed off last start, but the Niigata run prior was more respectable. Class drop and third-up fitness give him place claims if he rebounds.

Well beaten at both recent runs and unplaced in eight tries around 1500m. The class drop is not enough to recommend strongly.

Recent margins are plain, but the C3 drop and fourth-up timing are clear positives. Can improve sharply enough to press the favourite.

Dropped out sharply first-up, but the class drop and strong local rider-trainer angle give him some minor-money appeal.

Beaten a long way at both runs this campaign and unplaced in six overall. Class drop helps only a little.

Market respect has not translated into results, with two heavy defeats at this track. Has to find much more at 1500m.

Had suitable runs recently but failed to quicken. Class drop aside, the track and distance record is a concern.

Latest eighth offered little and the Sapporo run before was weaker again. Hard to build a strong case despite the class drop.

Best recent profile in the race after beating Dagobert last time. C3 drop and third-up fitness make her the one to beat.

Safely held last start but has one of the better recent profiles in this field. Place claims if he settles closer and finishes off.

Last-start sixth at this track was safely held, but her recent ratings and class drop keep her right in the winning conversation.
