Keen battle for the lead with Rize Rouge Sellier, Bari Flavor and Hiraboku Laugh It in advance of Al Ain Oasis and Taisei Vainqueur. BARI FLAVOR (10) is a distance specialist who improved sharply on his sixth two starts back at this track with a win as public elect over 1600m at this track three-and-a-half weeks ago, getting home by a nose after being prominent at the turn. No reason he cannot salute again. HIRABOKU LAUGH IT (4) is resuming from a 12 weeks break after finishing sixth at his last appearance over 1600m at this track. Good fresh performer so he should feature in the finish. KUNINO HAPPY (6) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1600m at this track, beaten 6 lengths. Nicely placed to play a pivotal role. GREEN DIAL (2) finished second last start at the first run back from a spell over 1600m at this track, beaten 2.5 lengths. Will strip fitter this time. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including four wins. Should be about the money.
