A QUICK NOTE 
Mosto Verde has been given a clean post-race bill of health, so should be out fighting again soon, while the trainer has declared he wants Lourdes No Hitomi to continue a career on dirt. The big news is that Tenshinramman is in good form according to 'Kacchi', who took her for a spin on a left-handed poly track today, and if she can take that into the Flora Stakes, things could get really interesting...

PS. Quadrille has been confirmed for the fourth race with Hiroshi Kitamura in the saddle at Tokyo on the 21st, while Katsuharu Tanaka is definitely riding Tenshinramman in the G-II Flora Stakes. Already got a fast pulse regarding the latter!
