Blau Horizon should lead but there are a few other speedy types who can keep him honest. SEKITEI JUO (6) couldn't have been more impressive first up last start when he scored by 30 lengths over 1500m at this track. Will be better for that latest run and looks sure to be in the finish again. BLAU HORIZON (4) finished second two runs back at Kawasaki then improved last time out to score by 5 lengths as favourite over 1400m at Kawasaki. Seiji Yamazaki scored on him last time and retains the ride. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. ISLA DEL NORTE (8) is a 13-start maiden who finished 12th at his most recent appearance over 1500m at this track after he was well back on straightening. Solid top-three chance on his best figures. VAINQUEUR CITY (3) turned in a much better effort last time out to score by 3 lengths over 1400m at this track. Has his share of talent. In the mix.
