Expecting Matsurida World to set a genuine tempo after crossing from wide out. CANDY DRIVE (12) scored by 3 lengths last start at Monbetsu over this distance after he was a fair way off the leaders on the turn. Has a strong record at this trip, scoring two times from four starts. Back-marker who keeps coming. One of the leading chances. SUNRISE AMOUR (4) has not been sighted since he scored over 1200m at Hanshin Dirt on June 8. Has the right profile. CHIKAPPA (6) finished seventh when resuming last start over 1400m at Urawa. Has a solid second up record. Leading chance on best form. ADVANCE PHAROAH (7) is having his second run back from a break after he failed to threaten first up over 1400m in Group 3 class at Chukyo Dirt. Will find this much easier. Solid claims on his best form.
