Good pace with Revontulet, Marble Rock and Forever Young matching motors. FOREVER YOUNG (7) resumes after finishing in the money over 2000m in the G1 Dubai World Cup at Meydan Dirt on 5/04/2025, adding to his solid overall record. Excels at the beginning of his campaigns with three wins from three starts so he can return in winning form. KING'S SWORD (2) saluted over 2000m at Ohi at his most recent appearance on June 26 2024. Strong chance to kick the campaign off on the right note. LIGHT WARRIOR (6) finished sixth over 2000m at Morioka Dirt at his most recent appearance on July 21. Has found a suitable race and is worth including. REVONTULET (10) went forward from the low draw when resuming last start and sat on the pace before sticking on well to finish third over 1800m at Listed level at Niigata Dirt. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he is good enough to play a major role.
