MIKKI GENTLE (4) Showed promise when winning by 1L last time at this track. Added confidence with Isao Yamaguchi doing the steering. Very competitive this preparation. Every chance today. MEISHO MAHIRO (8) Showed promise when winning by 2 1/2L last start at this track and back over more ground. Keeping a perfect win record the last 2 starts. Goes close. STILL THE ONE (7) Looked good when 2nd last start at this track. Serious player. MANA MAKANA (1) Ran 5th last start here. May see an upturn in form and drawn the rails. Shinsuke Ishikawa and Fumiya Mashima work well together. No shock to see a win.
