HAMBURG HAMMER (10) Did a good job when winning by 1 1/2L last start at this track. Good prospects. HIRO SHIGE SUNRISE (9) Kicked clear when winning by 3L last run around here. Has shown early pace in races to date. Has to be included. SHIROZUKINCHAN (3) Competitive effort when 2nd last run here. Masamichi Kashihara stable are on fire recently. Looking sharp on the track since coming back from a break. Must respect in this event. PALLADIUM RIBBON (1) Average at best when 10th last time around here but has the ideal alley. Should muster plenty of early toe. Could be value.
