Tokyo Race 9 - Hyakunichiso Tokubetsu
Limited exposed form, so cautious lean to VENT DE L'EST (6) stepping to 2000m at Tokyo on pedigreed staying lines and a handy middle draw with 56kg. TEXAS (3) appeals as a key threat, also well-bred for this trip and drawn to settle comfortably at 56kg. ESCUADRA (7) is in the mix from a similar profile and barrier, while NISHINO LYRICS (5) has some appeal at 55kg if the tempo allows. Narrow preference to VENT DE L'EST (6) in a race where stamina and tractability at 2000m look decisive.

2yo filly by Yuya Yamazaki with Ryou Nobata aboard tackles the Tokyo 2000m in a nine-runner field. The set-up places Moonlit Days at a testing trip for age, but the small field and rider booking offer a straightforward platform. Balanced profile with scope to progress.

Two-year-old colt for Yuichi Shikato with Alexis Pouchin booked for Tokyo 2000m. Sparse exposed data, but the set-up suggests a developmental assignment rather than a stern class test. Escuadra presents as a low-profile runner with scope to learn in this small field.
