CHEERFUL GIRL (3) was far from disgraced when second last start after being prominent at the corner over 1500m at this track, beaten a neck. That followed a win at Funabashi the start prior. Tackling a deeper field this time but she is worth serious consideration. KIMIWA LEMONADE (10) has had two runs since a break, the latest a win over 1400m at this track, beaten half a length. Fitter for recent racing so she is among the leading chances. JUNGLE TACHYON (8) missed the placings two runs back then did well last start when he worked home well but found a couple better over 1500m at Kawasaki, beaten only 1.1 lengths. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. GEOPARK PIRKA (7) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 6 lengths into eighth. Better than recent efforts suggest.
