SEOJOON (8) is back after a break of five-and-a-half months. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 1500m at this track. Has ability and should be right in the finish. YAMATAKE KOCHAN (6) is a 42-start maiden finding it tough to win but has been in the placings at his last two runs, finishing third most recently over 1800m at Funabashi. Top chance. YUYU GLUCK (10) has been out of the placings in two runs since a break, the latest when 12th, beaten 16 lengths, over 1400m at this track. Has further improvement to come and will be tough to beat. FORCE BIO (2) was in the money two starts back at Funabashi but couldn't back it up last time when eighth, beaten 13 lengths, at Funabashi over 1200m. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time.
