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

Strong tempo likely with several going forward, headed by Thrilling Chase and Seguir El Viento. PIEMANSON (6) loves this trip and has placed only try course and distance. Expected to prove hard to beat. DRAGON TAYLOR (13) rates highly on three straight wins. Tricky gate but looks a big chance again. YAMANIN ASTRON (3) ran on well to get up for third at his latest appearance at Hanshin Dirt over 1400m. Good record at this journey with two wins and three minor placings from seven starts and shapes as one to consider. SEGUIR EL VIENTO (9) was flying before a spell. Placed 3/4 fresh. Looks a key runner.
