Plenty of pressure primarily from Meisho Mikawa, Testimone and Cosmo Gin Buck. TESTIMONE (2) was far from disgraced to finish 1.75 lengths away in second last start over 1800m at Kyoto Dirt. That followed a first-up win at Kyoto Dirt. In great form and jumps from a perfect gate. Well placed and sure to prove tough to beat. RED PROPHECY (8) fought on for third last start over 2100m at Tokyo Dirt, making it two minor placings in a row. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. JASPER GREAT (10) is yet to find the frame in two runs since resuming from a spell, the latest when fourth over 2100m at Tokyo Dirt. Has never missed the frame when third-up and can find peak form this time. ROUGE ABELIA (4) showed good early dash last start and held on well to finish 1.3 lengths back in third over 1800m at Kyoto Dirt. Placed to advantage and can take this out.
