Plenty of pressure with Spade Un, Thrilling Chase and Shetland leading the charge. DUBAI BLUES (4) lines up for the first time since July 27. Looking to emulate his win at Hakodate Dirt to kick off the last campaign. Has a solid first-up record of two wins and three placings from seven runs. Has the right credentials to take this out. SPADE UN (8) last appeared when an easy winner over this course and distance 19 weeks ago. Smart entire who can make a bright return. BERGUN (6) is first-up since a comfortable victory over this distance at Sapporo Dirt three months ago. Lightly raced filly who can go to a new level this time in work. HO O SUPERIOR (14) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell on 16 August, finishing tenth and beaten 7 lengths over 1700m at Sapporo Dirt. Sure to make his presence felt.
