KIMIWA LEMONADE (4) returns from a break of three-and-a-half months. Consistent performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a win over 1400m at this track. Ideally placed to score while fresh. MEISHO BENIBANA (7) improved sharply on her fourth two starts back at this track with success over 1200m at Funabashi two-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by a neck after being in contention on the bend. Looks well placed so expect another big run. HARMONY YAMATO (6) started at $4.40 last time and ran below expectations, finishing seventh and beaten 9 lengths at this track over 1400m. Nicely placed to turn things around. MISS RAVE BUMP (3) was in the firing line on the turn and finished third last time over 1400m at this track when resuming from a spell, beaten 2.25 lengths. Will trim down second-up. Worth plenty of thought.
