Certain to be a strong tempo with Ungaisoten, Rawin and Gulden Draak leading the charge. LE CHEVAL D'OR (6) is back from a spell of five months and does go well when fresh, including a win to launch last campaign over 1800m at this track. Leading contender. HAGINO SUSTAINABLE (9) did well when resuming over 1900m at this track last start, finishing second and beaten 1.75 lengths. Has never missed the frame when second-up from three starts and should be fitter with a run under the belt. Leading chance. SAIMON XANADU (2) worked home well and finished third last time over 1900m at this track when resuming from a spell, beaten 2.5 lengths. Nicely placed to take this out. PATIENT SIEN (3) was responsible for a better run last start, beaten 4 lengths into fourth over 1900m at this track. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
