Worked home well first-up after being sent out favourite. First go at 1200m is the query, but barrier 1 keeps him a strong winning hope.

Class drop is the key after two plain 1500m runs. Her career record is strong enough to make her a live danger despite the 1200m query.

Back after three months with three straight wins behind her. Outstanding track-and-trip record and Mikamoto back aboard make her the one to beat.

Back from a freshening after a sharp track-and-trip win at odds. Proven conditions, but she has to confirm that form in a deeper race.

Freshened since a plain ninth behind Village Steel. Gets weight relief, but recent margins leave her with plenty to turn around.

Second two back at Urawa reads well enough for this. First go at 1200m asks a question, but he profiles as a sound place chance.

Freshened since a better fourth at this track. Track-and-trip record is useful, but the run before was too plain to ignore.

Last start was too far back to threaten, but Okamura returns and his previous effort at this track was fair. Place claims only.

Strong old track-and-trip record is the positive, but two heavy recent defeats at big odds make him hard to recommend.

Freshened since a sixth when well found in an open market. Recent form is honest, and her past-year record keeps her in the place mix.

Back from five months after three straight wins, with Keita Nishi's record aboard a major plus. Big danger if ready.

Back after one month and returns to 1200m, but the Ohi effort was plain at big odds. Must lift off recent form.

Five-week gap since a heavy defeat at this track. Has won track and trip, but recent form is a clear concern.

Freshened since a moderate fifth, but his track-and-distance record gives him a place profile if he finds his better finish.

Recent longer-trip runs have been weak, including a heavy defeat at this track. Back to 1200m helps only so much.

Back after more than a year, but his 1200m record is perfect and the prior Ohi win had substance. Place claims fresh.

Five-week let-up into a suitable setup, with weight relief and two sound fourths this campaign. A genuine winning chance.

Last two Urawa runs were heavy defeats and she was unwanted in betting. Track-and-trip record is the only real counterpoint.

Resumes after three months with useful 1200m stats, but two heavy Ohi defeats before the break leave him hard to trust.

Freshened since a plain sixth, but her prior third was sharp and the 1200m record keeps her in the mix.

Returns from five weeks off a first-up win at this track. Strong 1200m record and the latest B2 win make him the one to beat.

Dominant Kawasaki winner last start and proven around this trip. The earlier loss to Loose Aggressive keeps the win case in check.

Back after five weeks and better suited around 1600m. Solid overall record, though last start lacked the required turn of foot.

Back after five weeks unbeaten at this track. Beat Naniwano Benkei clearly last start and has the strongest winning profile.

Runner-up as odds-on favourite last start after a prior Urawa win. Proven around 1600m and holds sound place claims.

Back after five weeks off a five-length win at this track. Honest profile, but this demands more against the main hopes.

Back after five weeks, but was beaten over 14 lengths by True Target last start. Track form helps only slightly.

Beaten out of sight at Kawasaki first-up. Prior track win was big, but a major turnaround is required.

Back after five weeks with three placings from three runs at this track. Must turn the tables on True Target, but has substance.

Kawasaki failure as favourite was costly, but the previous five-length win keeps him in the each-way mix if he rebounds.

Back after five weeks after a nine-length defeat behind True Target. Earlier 1200m win was solid, but this is tougher.

Back after five weeks after a narrow Mombetsu third. Strong recent profile and suited around 1600m, making him a key threat.

Worked home fairly at Urawa but was still well held. The 1800m record is a query and recent figures leave him with plenty to find.

Draws low with Kenji Okamura aboard and has upside if the first 1800m attempt unlocks improvement. Recent form is plain but she is in the mix.

Has a prior win at this track and gets weight relief, but the latest Kawasaki run was weak. Has to lift sharply.

Two placings from two tries around 1800m and weight relief give him a turnaround case. Recent 2000m runs were poor, so trust is limited.

Reliable place profile with eight placings at this track and weight relief. The 1800m record is thin, but this suits better than recent runs.

Last-start Urawa defeat was plain, but his overall record is sound enough for minor claims if he finds his better form.

Best recent profile in the race and already a winner at this track. First 1800m try is noted, but he brings the right form to win.

Back after five weeks and proven at this track and distance. Latest fifth was sound enough to keep him in the place mix.

Freshened since another plain run at this track. One placing from ten starts here is modest support, but recent form is weak.
