Kokura

DURA LYS (16) Resuming after a spell. Ran on hard when winning last start at Fukushima. Shows good finishing speed. Well placed and has solid claims. VILJA LIED (11) Got tired late when 7th last start at Hanshin. Expecting to settle positively. Must respect in this event. STIR HEART (5) Made considerable ground when 2nd beaten by 5L last start at Kyoto. Has early speed and positions nicely. A win wouldn't surprise. ELF STRUCK (8) First up and started off strong but faded towards the end when 3rd beaten by 2 1/4L first up last preparation at Kyoto. Displays good tactical speed. Can win.
