This weekend's racing will feature two G3 races at Tokyo Racecourse and Kyoto Racecourse. Our original AI will guide you through notable runners in the G3 Negishi Stakes, held at Tokyo.

The potential of Verdad Imeru seems to be unnoticed by the market and he could be an interesting runner in this race. His form suggests he is capable of running against graded stakes winners such as Red le Zele in the G3 Musashino Stakes and Perriere in the Listed Green Channel Cup. The distance of this race also adds a further advantage to his chances, as he won a Listed class race last year over the same trip.

Kenshinko is expected to be priced high for this race but in last year's race he finished close behind Tagano Beauty, who is expected to be a strong favorite this year. He also likes Tokyo Racecourse, and finished third in the G3 Unicorn Stakes behind Cafe Pharoah. This will be his first race coming back from a long break but he is certainly the one to watch.

Iolite, who finished fifth in the Open Class Galaxy Stakes last time out, has been a consistent performer at graded stakes level. He finished second in the Jpn1 Zen Nihon Nisai Yushun when he was two and finished second in the Jpn3 Hokkaido Sprint Cup last year after winning the Listed Ritto Stakes. If he can perform at the same level again, he could well be a contender.
