Kochi

HOKKO HANAMICHI (10) Ran 4th last start at this venue. Should improve from the last run. Yuuji Uchikoshi has been training plenty of winners recently. Right in this. NORTH THE WORLD (6) Nice effort when winning by 3/4L last time here. Might take a while to wind up but should be hitting top gear in the straight. Can get the job done. MOON BLUE (4) Tidy run when 2nd last start around here. Should be swooping on the field late. Will be competitive. OCEA TOP GUN (8) Was competitive when 2nd last run at this venue. Should muster plenty of early speed. Added confidence jockey with Taichi Nagamori doing the steering. Can win.
