Bleu Vert and Garo will settle forward and can set a moderate tempo. LA LA PASSAGE (5) is still a maiden after 15 starts. Managed to find the placings at Himeji two starts back before finishing seventh over 1400m at Himeji last time. Finds a nice race and this might be his day. TASMAN HIGHWAY (2) ran a better race and finished fourth last time out over 1400m at Himeji. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. GARO (7) finished out of the money when fifth over 1400m at Himeji three-and-a-half weeks ago. Best figures measure up and can feature here. ULTIMAN (3) was ninth in a 1400m contest at Himeji a week-and-a-half ago. Better than recent efforts suggest and finds a nice race.
