Abundant pace from Sin Limites, Rapido Fiore and Inversion vying for the lead with A Shin Leo on their backs. RAPIDO FIORE (5) is ready to win after he just missed last time, beaten a neck into second over 1400m at this track after being in contention all the way. Should be prominent from the outset. Stepping up a level this time but on his best form he is good enough to take this out. MARUKA IGUAZU (3) scored at this track last time out with 5 lengths in reserve at the end of 1400m. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including three wins. Can measure up again. IZA GREEN LIGHT (4) showed good early dash last start and held on well to finish 5.5 lengths back in third over 1400m at this track. This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is right in contention. ECORO COURAGE (7) finished second over 1600m at Kochi at his last run on May 24. Has an excellent first-up record and was in the money in his last first up run, a bold showing is expected.
