IIKUNI PASSION (10) Did well when 3rd last run at Monbetsu. Should be rolling forward early from the wide alley. Good to see jockey Tomohiro Yoshimura is jumping on. Key player. SOLESMES (1) First up from a break. Nice run when 2nd last run at Niigata and promising career start. Kenta Sugiura has a good track record with the Ikkoo Tanaka stable. Gets a chance to win. ELOIM ESSAIM (7) Solid win by 1 1/4L last start at the track. Jockey Komaki Futoshi and trainer Takamasa Suwa are a promising combination. Deserves consideration. A SHIN OKIKURMI (8) Finished 4th last start at this venue. Worth a ticket.
