FIRE PATTERN (1) Scored a victory by 1 1/2L last run at this track and fitter for debut run. Should jump out and bowl along. Has drawn to do little work. One of the major hopes. A SHIN FREUDE (3) Secured a close victory last start here and solid career start. Jockey Yamato Ishikawa and trainer Masakazu Murakami are an imposing duo. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Has genuine claims in this race. VIN FLOR (5) Won by 2L last time at this venue and was a debutant last start. Should muster plenty of early speed. Junji Tanaka stable are running hot lately. Looks to be value. SOUTHERN FLOWER (6) Was ordinary when 8th last start at this venue. Will be positive in the run early. Can measure up to this company.
