There should be a bit of early pressure with Sasakin Rose and La Mia Vita going forward in advance of Crane Rocket and Medaglia Flame. RETICLE (3) started at $1.80 last time and ran below expectations, finishing fifth at Mizusawa over 1600m. Nicely placed and can atone. DOZEN FLOWER (7) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid second at Mizusawa over 850m. Looks well-placed in this line-up so expect another big run. SHARK ATTACK (6) was out of the money last start over 1400m at Mizusawa, finishing tenth. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. SKY LUKE (4) was in the money two starts back at Mizusawa but was unable to repeat the effort last time when eighth there over 850m. Nicely placed to make amends.
