Verdict

MARUNO ANNA (7) was last at the races when she won over 6 ½f at this track on April 20. One of the genuine hopes in the race. K T YUI (1) showed early speed from an outside draw last time and led for much of the way before fading to finish sixth over 7 ½f at Kawasaki. Expected to measure up again. CLOCHE NOIRE (5) finished 11th over 1 ¼m at this track at her most recent appearance on January 6. Worth plenty of thought. NARITA AMBITION (3) missed the frame last start over 7f at this track when 11th. Well placed to make amends.
