Verdict

IIDE TESSHIN (7) did a great job to score by 7 lengths over today's course and distance when resuming from a break last time out. Finds another suitable race and can do it again. MEISHO TOKIIRO (9) made progress last start to finish third over 1m at this track after being prominent at the turn. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. MELO PEARL (6) progressed nicely last time out to finish just 1.5 lengths from the winner in third over 1m at this track after being prominent at the corner. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. MICHINO SICILIA (8) has been in the money at his last couple of runs, the latest when third over 1m at this track. Should camp just off the leaders. Not to be discounted.
