Verdict

SWITCH ON (11) is on a six-day back-up after finishing in the money over 5f at Funabashi. Must contend with a wide draw but is expected to go well again. MAJUTSUSHI KAERU (5) showed good early pace over 4f at Urawa last time and kept going to score by half a length. It doesn't get any easier but on his best form he is good enough to take this out. KURINO WILLIAM (9) finished second over 4f at Urawa last time out following a determined win two back. Kosuke Sakurai who has two wins when partnering stays on. Should be involved in the finish. HUMAN RIGHTS (7) got the prize two runs ago but couldn't follow that up last time out when fourth over 4f at Urawa, beaten 4 lengths. Worth another chance.
