Kanazawa

RUNE FACTOR (8) Solid win by 2 1/2L last start around here and suited at this trip historically. Has not missed this preparation with 3 wins from 3 runs. Could prove to be very difficult to beat. ALMA INANNA (6) Not up to scratch when 6th last run at this track. Jockey Tatsuya Nakajima and trainer Katou Kazuhiro go well together. Worth an each way investment. NAGISANO BALCONY (7) Nice effort when winning by 1 1/2L last start here and demonstrating upward trajectory in recent races. Should be going forward early. Hard to knock and looks a nice each way proposition. KANNAGI (4) Tidy effort when 3rd last time at the track. Possesses very good closing speed. Capable of better.
