Verdict

CAPTIVA (11) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race and finished 2 lengths away in fourth last time out over 7 ½f at Urawa. Finds a nice race and can feature in the finish. JESCO (12) is back after a break of ten weeks. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 7 ½f at this track. Capable of playing a major role. JASMINE CHARA (4) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when eighth, beaten 4 lengths, over 7 ½f at this track. Has further improvement to come and is sure to be about the mark. ANOTHER MOON (7) was beaten 4 lengths into sixth over 7 ½f at Kawasaki at his latest appearance. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
