---|---|---|---|---|
Seiun Platina is likely to take charge and set a decent tempo. RED RADIANCE (4) resumes today after filling a minor placing at his only appearance last prep at Listed level at Tokyo over 2400m on May 4. Winning rider K Tosaki stays aboard. Well placed and should be in the finish. Grade 3 placegetter KING'S PALACE (11) lines up for the first time since May 5. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 2200m at Nakayama. Comes here with definite claims. REFRAMING (10) returns after a spell of nine weeks. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 2000m at Kyoto. One to consider. BORN THIS WAY (3) is a grade 2 placegetter. Resumes in a similar race to his last run 12 weeks ago when second, beaten a neck. Worth plenty of thought.
