|---|---|---|---|---|

Not much gate speed on show enabling Aratamano Kiseki to roll to the front. VIGOR SUNRISE (6) strode forward early from her wide draw over 1230m at this track last time before fading to finish seventh. Well placed and will take some running down. K TWO LEONE (5) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1400m at this track. Fitter so anticipating a better run this time. ARATAMANO KISEKI (1) returns from a layoff of four months. Scored over 1400m at this track to launch the last campaign. Looks one of the genuine hopes in the race. HO O SIX (2) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a sixth over 1400m at this track. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time.
