Verdict

CARAMEL SLIME (6) raced on pace for much of the way before fading in the straight to finish fifth over 6f here last time. She was at the pointy end of the market there however and I'm happy to think her last start was just a blip on the radar. Expecting a bold performance with that experience under her belt. DERMA OPERA (11) is a four-year-old entire by Duramente out of Curren Lisbeth stepping out on debut for the Gen Hayashi stable. Looks a definite contender in a suitable race on debut. MUSICIENNE (9) is facing the starter for the first time. By Mr Melody and comes from the Kiyoshige Arai stable. Expect a bold run. CHOUETTE KAZU (5) ran a better race last start, finishing in fifth over 7f at Urawa. Capable of featuring prominently.
