NAMURA CLAIR (13) Racing fresh today after a break. Narrowly denied a win last start at Hanshin and demonstrating upward trajectory in recent races. Suguru Hamanaka takes the reins today. Must be considered. PANJA TOWER (1) Came in 5th last time at Riyadh but drawn the rails. Good to see Kohei Matsuyama is jumping on. Will be trying to topple them late. Can win this. MAMA COCHA (10) Ran past a few when 4th last run at Nakayama. Yuga Kawada is a plus. In the mix. JUNE BLAIR (18) Goes well first up. Folded up in the straight when 11th last run at Hanshin but will be well suited at the distance. Capable of forward showing and can be competitive.
