Solid tempo with Fortem leading from Win Rheia and Mondo Dell'amore. MONDO DELL'AMORE (1) lines up for the first time since June 22. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1400m at Chukyo. One of the genuine hopes in the race. FORTEM (10) was an impressive winner last time over 1500m at this track, scoring by 2.5 lengths to make it two in succession. Should be prominent from the outset. Will prove tough to beat. FINE LINE (6) saluted over 1800m at Kyoto at his most recent appearance on May 25. One to consider. RAFFA DURA (7) finished fifth over 1800m at Hakodate when resuming last start, beaten only 1.75 lengths. Fitter so expect a better run this time.
