Verdict

BEL LEONE (11) is putting together some solid results. Finished third at this track two starts back then landed the prize by a head last time out over 7f at this track. Nicely placed to make it two on the bounce. MAMA ARIGATO (10) registered a strong win at Funabashi two runs ago. Fair effort last time out when third over 4 ½f at this track, beaten 1.75 lengths. Likely improver with strong prospects. COTTON FLOWER (1) finished fourth last start over 7f at this track after racing on the pace for much of the way. Will push forward and is among the chances. METAL HEART (4) was beaten 4 lengths into fourth at the second run back from a break over 7f at this track a month ago. Well placed to bounce back.
