Urawa

HAYABUSA APO CHAN (1) Fought on well to win a tight contest last time at Kawasaki and will be aiming for a soft run from the draw. Tsubasa Sasagawa is very comfortable aboard. Hard to dismiss. PUBLIC SPHERE (6) Thrashed the field when winning by 8L last start at this venue. Has run into the money frequently this preparation. Good chance and wouldn't be surprised to see it pick up a win. HOT EMPEROR (7) Finished 5th last run here and will be dropping in distance. Underrated. TOSEN ADELAIDE (5) Back from a spell. Secured a close victory last start around here and demonstrating upward trajectory in recent races. Has to be included.
