Verdict

MA KAN EMI O (5) stuck on well to finish second last start over 6f at this track, beaten one length when fresh from a spell. Looks well placed so with extra fitness under the belt could go one better. PURE LIEN (1) is a two-start maiden who resumed from a spell last start and was beaten 6 lengths at this track and trip. From the inside draw he can can come on from that run and looks a serious contender. UME MIRAI (7) stepped out for his debut over 7f at this track back on March 24 and finished sixth. Open to improvement and can feature. STELLA NINA (10) ran a better race last start at her second trip to the races, finishing fifth. Has further upside and can feature.
