Slick tempo with Whitby Abbey to lead but under plenty of pressure in a keen early contest. WHITBY ABBEY (7) made it eight wins on the bounce last time out when he scored by 1.5 lengths over 1700m at this track. Winning rider Takahiro Imai retains the mount. Major player. SOLAR RAY (1) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when second over 1500m at this track. One of the key runners. RYUNO DRAGON (4) was racing well without winning, finishing in the money on four consecutive occasions, before finishing fourth last time out over 2000m at this track. One to consider. NAMURA MICHEAL (2) missed the placings last start when fifth over 2000m at this track. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.
