Verdict

MEISHO YORIKIRI (7) brings the clearest recent form, having finished second at Nagoya over this trip two weeks ago when beaten three lengths by Nishiki Vivravivre after being run down late. His prior sixth was still sound enough, beaten just over five lengths by Meisho Miss Ichi, and his track-and-distance record with Junki Mochizuki keeps him the runner to beat despite the distance query. MASSANO (5) is the main danger on profile rather than last-start margin, with a fourth behind Treasure Beat two back reading better than her latest sixth, and the class drop gives her a proper chance to rebound. YUINO CHOSHINKI (4) has been around the mark with a third then fourth at Nagoya, though the maiden record remains the knock. SHIROI YATSU (9) was plain last time, but his previous fifth showed enough late response to keep him in the placing mix if he improves sharply.
