Verdict

MUGI GAKUDAN (4) has filled a minor placing at both runs to date, the latest when beaten a neck into second over 7f at this track. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Expecting a bold showing. KUMONRYU (5) took advantage of the good draw and led for much of the way last start before being run down in the straight, finishing sixth and beaten 6 lengths over 7f at this track. Will give a sight. TERU REINE (2) is a 14-start maiden who could only manage to finish eighth at her latest appearance over 7f at this track. Suited in this line up and is among the better hopes. GRAND CIRCLE (9) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 7f at this track, beaten 6 lengths into fifth. Well placed to bounce back.
