HAPPY THALIA (2) is back at the races for the first time since February 12. Worth noting she filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1100m at Monbetsu. Sure to make her presence felt. PIKO DIAL (5) finished out of the money two starts back then he was always well out of his ground and was beaten 3 lengths when fourth in a 1200m contest at this track five weeks ago. Finds a nice race and can take this out. TECHNO ANGEL (3) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest at this track over 1200m. Has a win and two minor placings from four starts at this track and distance. Has claims on her best efforts. SATISFIER (8) was unplaced two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1200m at this track, beaten 6 lengths into sixth. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
