EL FENIX (7) Kicked clear when winning by a margin of 3 1/2L last time at this track and have to respect the form at the distance. Must be considered. A SHIN ELAN (2) Looked good when 2nd last start at this track and can find a nice position from the draw. Jockey Shouichi Kawahara has been successful before. Winnable race. EIYU MAX (8) Tidy run when 2nd last run here. Wataru Hirose is in form for this stable. Placed at every start this preparation. No surprise to see a forward showing and one of the main hopes in this race. GRAND LIVE (12) Unsatisfactory performance when 8th last time at the track but returns to an increased distance. Has the necessary speed to overcome the wide draw. Has the ability to figure.
