Tokyo

LE VALET D'COEUR (12) Resuming. Made considerable ground when 3rd beaten by 2L last time at this track and good career start. Well placed and has solid claims. SONATAN (11) First up and gave plenty of cheek when 2nd first up last preparation at the track. No surprise to see a forward showing and one of the main hopes in this race. CLARINET SONATA (16) Attacked the line when 3rd beaten by 1/2L last run at the track and getting better in recent performances. Jockey Keita Tosaki and trainer Hiroyasu Tanaka are usually competitive together. Won't be far away. LYKEION (5) First run back from a break. Ran 7th last run at Fukushima but proven performer at this trip in the past. Should get going late. Dropping in distance. One of the major players.
