Gylfi and June Aoniyoshi can set an even tempo. GYLFI (6) is having his first run since July 20. Has a strong record when fresh with two wins from four runs, the most recent over 2000m at this track at the start of last prep. New to stakes racing but the numbers say he is up to the task. RAMJET (13) is back from a break of three months. Decent effort at his only appearance last prep when fifth over 2000m at Ohi. Rates highly and is likely to be prominent. KAZU TANJA (15) did well last time to finish fourth over 1800m in the LR BSN Sho at Niigata Dirt after he got a long way back in the run. The extra journey should play into his hands. Right in the mix. LE CHEVAL D'OR (9) didn't make an impact at his last run before going for a spell on April 18, finishing 15th and beaten 18 lengths over 1800m in the G3 Antares Stakes at this track. Good enough to test these on his day.
