Verdict

GENIE BONITA (5) finished fifth two runs back at Funabashi then improved last time out to score by a head after being in the firing line on the turn over 7f at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. PINO MORAN (4) made progress last time out, finishing 4.5 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 7f at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. DERMA PRAKRTI (6) finished third at this track two runs back but didn't measure up last time over 1 ?m at Funabashi, finishing 10 lengths back in sixth. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time. WORLD BATTLE (10) did a great job to score by a nose over today's course and distance when first-up from a layoff last time out. Nicely placed to take this out.
