|---|---|---|---|---|

Abundant pace from Ho O Biscuits, Meisho Tabaru and Seiun Hades vying for the lead with Tastiera on their backs. MASQUERADE BALL (7) lines up for the first time since June 1. Hit the line hard to place at both runs last time in at this level. Classy colt who excels fresh and looks ideally placed to claim first Grade 1 win. MEISHO TABARU (13) scored at his only appearance last prep four-and-a-half months ago over 2200m in the G1 Takarazuka Kinen at Hanshin. Led throughout to win that race and expected to push forward from the wide gate here. Will take running down. TASTIERA (5) scored a commanding victory in the G1 Queen Elizabeth II Cup at Sha Tin over 2000m at his latest appearance earlier this year. Great record this level and goes very well fresh. Take beating. SHIRANKEDO (11) is a talented mare who hasn't raced since winning the G3 Niigata Kinen nine weeks ago. Has a strong record when fresh from a break. Has an impressive strike rate at this distance with four wins from six runs and is among the main hopes.
