Keen battle for the lead with Osaki Wonder, Chuo Pet and Ailes Vague in advance of Yuyu Relacion and Gold Motion. GOLD MOTION (5) finished 15th two runs back at Tokyo Dirt then improved last time out to score by 1.3 lengths as public elect over 1400m at this track. No reason he cannot salute again. OSAKI WONDER (1) has put together a couple of wins at this track, the latest on August 5 over 1400m when she got home by one length. This looks a sterner test than last time but on current form she is capable of testing her rivals. AILES VAGUE (2) was thereabouts two starts ago before a disappointing seventh most recently over 1600m at this track. Change of rider to Masatoshi Yamamoto who has an excellent strike rate when in the saddle, including two wins. Has claims on her best figures. YUYU RELACION (6) was prominent at the bend and finished third last time over 1600m at this track, beaten 0.8 lengths. Will trim down following recent racing. Likely improver with top-three claims again.
