Big-priced first-up fifth was much better, beaten under a length at Urawa. The 1500m record is mixed, but he has place claims.

Race fit third-up and has placed at this track, but two recent fifths by clear margins leave her with plenty to find.

Back after two months and gets a class drop. Recent Mdn runs were plain, but two placings from four starts keep him in the mix.

Freshened since a solid B3 fifth at Mombetsu and drops in grade. Proven around 1500m, so he appeals for the placings.

Track-and-trip winner, but recent form is plain and she was never a winning hope last start. Others bring stronger claims.

Back-to-back wins and proven at this track and distance. Short back-up is the query, but the current form is strong.

Freshened since a distant second at this track and gets a leading jockey. Place chance, but the winning edge is still to be found.

Back after three months with a handy track record, but his final run before the break was only fair. Improvement required.

Progressive this campaign, off a last-start Urawa win and a prior second at this track. Has a genuine each-way profile.

Freshened since a midfield effort at this track. Has placed here at the trip, but recent runs lack the required finish.

Freshened since a distant second at this track. Leading jockey helps, but 12 starts without a win keeps him in the place bracket.

Back after two months with three straight wins, including a six-length C4 success at Mombetsu. The strongest winning profile.
