Thin form overall, but MAY JOSHUA (8) brings the best recent effort with a 6th of 17 at Niigata 1000m on 23 Aug, beaten 2.46L, and can measure up rising to 1300m. MAIN THEME (6) resumes locally second-up after a solid 6th of 18 at Niigata 1000m on 15 Aug, 4.6L off the winner, and draws better than last start. COSMO MAYWEATHER (3) was 6th of 11 here over 1300m on 15 Sep and stays at the trip on a 12‑day turnaround. JUNREI (9) is second‑up after a 9th of 11 here over 1300m on 15 Sep and can improve with race fitness.

Draws the inside gate and rises to 54kg after a 71-day break, switching back to 1300m after midfield-to-rear runs over 1200m and 1150m. Her latest at Fukushima (1150m, 51kg) saw her settle last and finish 14th of 16, beaten 11.11L at $151. Needs the soft draw to help her hold a position and show improvement second-up into this trip.

First-up after 4 months and draws barrier 2, a slight improvement from last start. Her latest run at Morioka over 1200m on 25/05/2026 saw her finish 9th of 12, beaten 16.3L at SP 101 under 53kg, and she now carries 54kg with a 100m rise in trip. Needs to lift on exposed form but the softer draw and fresh setup offer some scope.

Fourth-up and drawn well in barrier 3, he comes off a Mizusawa 1300m run 12 days ago when 6th of 11, beaten 11.1L by Nasiriyah at $29 carrying 56kg on heavy ground. His prior Niigata efforts over 1800m and 2400m were well beaten, so the shorter trip and inside draw look the more suitable setup at this stage.

Drops back to 1300m after a heavy-track 10th of 11 at Mizusawa 12 days ago, beaten 29.5L at $101, and now draws barrier 4 after jumping from 2 there. Her only previous run with this jockey came two starts back at Morioka over 1200m when 11th of 11, so she’ll need to lift, but the softer draw and familiar conditions offer a chance to settle better.

Fourth-up and on a 12-day turnaround, she drops to 52kg and draws barrier 5 after a tough HEAVY-track run at Mizusawa over 1300m when 11th of 11, beaten 27.15L (SP 29). Her prior Niigata 1200m run showed early speed before weakening to 11th/16, so a cleaner trip from this gate could help her settle and finish closer.

Second-up and back to 1000m after a 43-day break, she draws barrier 6 after working home into 6th of 18 over 1000m at Niigata on 15 Aug (4.6L) at $16. She rises to 54kg from 52kg and gets Masatoshi Yamamoto, with the barrier a meaningful improvement from gate 15 last time. This looks a suitable setup to build on that latest run.

Third-up and dropping 200m, he returns off a 9th of 12 at Nagoya over 1500m on 19 Aug, beaten 11.65L at 57kg after jumping from barrier 10 at $61 behind Zenno Zondag. The slight weight dip to 56kg and a better draw than last start offer a tidier setup, but he needs to lift on exposed figures.

Dropped back to 1000m and improved last time at Niigata, finishing 6th of 17 beaten 2.46L at 54kg after settling handy at $126. She sticks to the short trip again, carries 54kg, and draws barrier 8, which looks a suitable setup for further progress.

Second-up after a 9th of 11 at Mizusawa over 1300m 12 days ago on heavy, beaten 22.85L at $126 with 56kg. Draws barrier 9 after coming from 5 last time, and keeps Shion Sasaki; needs to lift on those figures but should strip fitter.

Third-up today with a slight weight dip to 56kg and a minor drop in trip to 1200m after a 13th at Hanshin (1400m) and a 10th at Chukyo (1200m), the latter beaten 13.8L at SP 201. He draws barrier 10 again and has had 43 days between runs, so improvement would need to come from the freshening and experience.
