Marine Dhun Dhun and Precioso to battle for the leading role. NAMIDANO KISS (9) returns from a layoff of six months. Scored over 1700m at this track to launch the last campaign and was also a winner when last seen. Has recorded two wins when first up from a break. Strong chance to kick the campaign off on the right note. PRECIOSO (7) scored at his most recent appearance, getting home by 2.5 lengths over 1700m at this track as favourite. That continued the good form this campaign, with three wins and three minor placings from seven runs. Big chance once again. PEGASUS TURBO (2) has scored at his last two starts, most recently by 1.5 lengths over 1700m at this track as favourite. That gave him two wins from three starts so far this campaign. Expect a bold showing. KURFURST (4) got the prize two runs ago but was less impressive last time out when fourth over 2600m at this track, beaten 4 lengths. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time.
