5.Muttrah Corniche	M Ikezoe	Yuichi Kitamura	N/A	Hard to gauge given the number of first starters. MUTTRAH CORNICHE first start and racing without trial, one of the main hopes. OFF THE CHAIN first start and has the speed to overcome a very wide draw, if in the finish no surprise. JUMP OVER first start and untrialled, each-way claims. LAYBACK SPIN first start and racing without trial, sneaky chance.
13.Off The Chain	Yasuo Tomomichi	Mirai Iwata	N/A
12.Jump Over	Kenichi Fujioka	Yusuke Fujioka	N/A

9.Okotampe	Naosuke Sugai	Daisuke Sasaki	3-1	Don’t be surprised if a good priced winner emerges as very open race. OKOTAMPE looks the leader and should run fitter for past attempts, genuine contender. WAINO NAOMI looks the leader and placed once this prep at Niigata, cannot be ruled out. PROTEA looks the leader and should run fitter for past attempts, don't dismiss. FELLINI back after 15 week break and has the speed to overcome a very wide draw, could threaten.
5.Waino Naomi	Shogo Hatabata	Kaito Kawabata	8-1
4.Protea	Hiroshi Miyamoto	Toshiki Akiyama	1-1
15.Fellini	S Hashiguchi	Atsuya Nishimura	16-1

7.Promising Star	Yoshitada Takahashi	Mirai Iwata	5-4	Anticipating a truly run race so don’t rule out backmarkers. PROMISING STAR let-up for six weeks and has outstanding form at this track, commands respect. SEMIMARU finished a neck back from the leader last start at Kyoto when first up and has genuine early speed, sneaky chance. HIRUNO PYRENEES has the speed to overcome an unfavourable draw, sneaky chance. STAPES KAORI has a lot of early speed, needs the breaks.
5.Semimaru	Masayuki Nishimura	Atsuya Nishimura	16-1
14.Hiruno Pyrenees	Yoshihito Kitade	Toshiki Akiyama	100-1
10.Stapes Kaori	Mamoru Ishibashi	Yamato Tsunoda	7-1
