Outright plays (1pt):
Dinesh Chand to win 20/1 e.w. @ Sportingbet and Sporting Odds
A weaker field ahead of the main three events on the Japan Tour schedule, but Chand is still available at 20/1. That is despite finishing 5th last week to extend his run of consecutive top-10 finishes to five. No-one else can match that form and having already own the Yomiuri Open in June, this looks a very good opportunity for him to convert that consistency into another win.
Yong-Eun Yang to win 30/1 e.w. @ GolfingGods
Take out last month's starts in the WGC event in Ireland and the Dunhill Links Championship in Scotland and Yang's last four finishes on the Japan Tour have been 1st, 5th, 2nd and then 11th on his return to Japan. Chand might be in the best form overall, but solely on Japan Tour performances, that is a very impressive run of form from Yang. He should be little more than half these odds.
Toru Suzuki to win 40/1 e.w. @ Sportingbet and Sporting Odds
With this course being used for the first time, it is another form horse who earns an outright selection. Suzuki has had four top-10 finishes in his last six starts, including a win in the Acom International last month and a runners-up finish in the ABC Championship last week. He is a player who regularly struggles for consistency but will record a decent number of top-3 finishes in a season. At the moment, he is combining both so should not be at these odds.
