Solid tempo with several going forward headed by Pyro Beam. ONIASHI (8) was sent out favourite last time and scored by 1.5 lengths at this track. Has a decent record at this track with two wins and seven minor placings from 13 starts. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Likely to feature. ORWELL (1) finished seventh over 1500m at this track at his most recent appearance on September 24. Should be hard to stop. PYRO BEAM (3) showed good early muster and fought on to finish third last start over 2000m at this track. Looks well placed so expect another big run. KANEKOME SISTER (2) made progress last time out, finishing 4 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1200m at Funabashi. Has her share of talent and is a top-three prospect.
