Genuine tempo with Freewheeling leading the way. FREEWHEELING (9) was in the firing line all the way and fought on for second last start over 1400m at this track, making it three minor placings in a row. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. CAMP FIRE (3) was fresh from a break of five months last start when beaten 2.75 lengths into fourth over 1200m at this track. Won't be bothered by this longer journey. Can win this without surprising. TERUTE (10) missed the placings two starts back then ran a better race and finished 3 lengths away in fourth last time out over 1400m at this track. Likely improver with strong prospects. MANACOR (1) has switched yards since finishing 12th four weeks ago over 2000m at Urawa. Well-placed and is among the chances.
