From the inside gate Grand Cullinan can show speed with Legatus and Gruner Green prominent. DANON AYERS ROCK (5) was safely held when resuming from a spell behind Seiun Hades in the G3 Epsom Cup at this track over 1800m, beaten 5 lengths into sixth. Can play a big role in this company. TOSEN RYO (9) worked home well to grab third at long odds at his latest appearance in the G3 Epsom Cup at this track over 1800m. Good signs last time and worth consideration. CRUZEIRO DO SUL (6) finished fourth when resuming from a spell last start over 1800m at this track. Has a solid record here with two wins and a placing from six tries. Big run is likely. GRAND CULLINAN (1) opened this prep last start with a fourth, beaten 2.5 lengths, over 2000m at Niigata. Goes much better second-up so he is right in contention.
