HAYAMA DAYS (3) Was first to greet the judge when winning by 1 1/2L last run at Urawa and on an upward trajectory in recent races. Recent form of Taito Mori is strong. Ticks plenty of boxes and looks like value . METAL KING (2) Won narrowly by a head last start here and can find a nice position from the draw. Looking sharp on the track since coming back from a break. Will be around the mark at odds. OISHI FUJINO HANA (8) Finished 4th last time at Urawa. Happy to overlook that run. Jockey Naoki Machida and trainer Masato Hayashi have a solid working relationship. No shock to see a win. LEGEND MASTER (5) Placed 2nd last run at this venue. Been in the money 2 from 2 attempts this preparation. Genuine winning chance.
