Saga

SPHENE TESORO (5) Competitive effort when 2nd last run at this track. Manato Hida and Masanori Mashima are a strong duo. Putting up notable efforts since returning from a spell. Makes it very hard to bet against. SILVER CRAFT (2) Didn't threaten when 15th last run at Tokyo but drawn nicely. First start for a new trainer. Won't be far away. CROWN PRESENTER (7) First up after a break. Didn't attack the line when 13th last start at Nakayama and dropping back to a shorter trip. Change in trainer. Exotics chance. T M SUAVE (8) Finished 11th last time at Kyoto. Racing for a new trainer. Could prove value.
