LARGAMENTE (5) resumed from a spell last start with a sound second over 1800m at Nakayama Dirt. Placed to advantage so expect a big run. LAVA FALL (6) is a three-start maiden who finished 11th, beaten 8 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1800m at Nakayama. Among the leading chances with the run under her belt. HISAENO OMOKAGE (11) was in the firing line on the corner and progressed nicely last start to finish a close second over 1700m at Fukushima Dirt after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Likely improver with strong prospects. NOTHING BETTER (14) has been freshened up since she finished fifth over 1400m at Chukyo Dirt eight weeks ago. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Can feature in the finish.
