NISHIKEN BOB (4) Fought on gamely when winning last start around here. Made it 2 wins on the trot. Yamato Ishikawa is a key engagement. Has shown early pace in races to date. This suits. BRAVE AMORE (3) Tidy run when 3rd last run at this track. Genta Ochiai has a good track record with the Kuniaki Sasaki stable. Has early speed and positions nicely. Will be competitive. KEIAI PURPLE (6) Ran 3rd last time here. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Been in the money 7 from 7 attempts this preparation. Fuuma Ono rates highly aboard. Should be competitive in this race at a bit of odds. LUPUS TESORO (1) Came in 5th last run at this track but drawn well. Racing consistently this prep. Place chance.
