A solid tempo on the cards with Sammaru Ship leading the way. SAMMARU SHIP (11) scored by 3 lengths last start at this track over this distance after he was prominent at the turn. Form over this journey is strong, boasting five wins from eight starts. Has a formidable combination with Norifumi Mikamoto who has been aboard for his last five wins. Leading contender. EMERAL APOLLON (9) lifted strongly to get the prize by a neck three runs back at this track before filling a minor placing at his last two starts. Has a fine record here with two wins from five starts. Leading contender. COSMO ROUGE (10) built on a nice third when fresh from a spell two starts back at this track with success as public elect over 1200m at this track two weeks ago, getting home by 1.5 lengths. Finds a tougher race but he has the ability to test this field. PRINCE MAKER (2) turned in a nice effort to score two runs ago but was less impressive last time out when second over 1200m at this track, beaten 5 lengths. Expect a better run this time.
