Placed in 2 of last 3 and draws the rail after jumping from gate 4 last time. Latest run was 3rd of 5 over 1400m at Sonoda on 16 Sep, beaten 11L at $71.00. With the inside barrier and a return to the same trip and track, can hold a spot and look to progress.

Fourth up and sticks to 1400m after a 3rd of 7 at Sonoda on 14 Oct over this trip, beaten 7.5L at $4.00 on firm. That run sets a clear benchmark for where he fits at the distance. Fuuma Nanbu stays on for Akihiro Tamura. Honest claims with race fitness and the same set-up.

Third up and sticking to 1400m at Sonoda after a 6th of 8 here on 14 Oct over 1400m, beaten 7.8L at $3.40. Earlier ran 3rd of 7 at the same trip on 24 Sep, beaten 10L at $5.50. Holds some early course experience at the trip and can look to consolidate.

Draws much better after starting from 11 last time, now barrier 4. Two runs at 1400m here have been well beaten at $101.00, finishing 6th of 7 on 26 Aug and 10th of 12 on 7 Oct. The improved gate gives her a softer map, but she still needs to lift on those Sonoda efforts.

Back to this 1400m at Sonoda after a 5th of 8 here on 14 Oct, beaten 5.3L at $41.00 on firm. Earlier 30 Sep run at the trip on soft returned 4th of 6, beaten 14.75L at $9.00. Sticks to the same course and distance with Tatsuya Takemura booked. Place hopes with a repeat of the more recent effort.

Draws better with barrier 6 after jumping from 11 last start. Ran 5th of 12 over 820m at Sonoda on 16 Oct, beaten 3.2L at $5.50, and earlier was 3rd of 5 here at 1400m on 24 Jul at $26.00. The return to 1400m at the same track looks a suitable set-up given that prior placing, with Takanori Nagai booked. Albatron has the draw and prior track-and-trip effort to be competitive.

Placed 2 of 3 at the Sonoda 1400m, including a 3rd of 12 here on 7 Oct when $51.00 and beaten 11L. That was an improvement on his 6th of 12 at the same trip on 23 Sep at $51.00. With repeat consistency at this track and distance, Gold Breguet profiles as a minor-claims chance again.

Carries 53kg after dropping 3kg since the latest run, which could help at 1400m. Last start at Sonoda over 1400m on 14 Oct he finished 4th of 7, beaten 9L at $5.00 on firm ground. With that experience at the trip and a lighter impost, Katsu Yozan has scope to be more competitive.
