Lux Paradis, Clee and Ingenium to take up the running at a strong tempo. INGENIUM (9) built on a nice third two starts back at Himeji with a win as favourite over 820m at this track three weeks ago, getting home by a nose. Kanta Inoue scored on him last time and retains the ride. Well placed and can score again. LUX PARADIS (3) is returning from a spell of ten weeks. Finished ninth at Kokura over 1200m at the first run last prep. Now with a new trainer Seiichi Terachi. Solid chance first-up for the new barn. WINDSOR ROAR (2) has been thereabouts lately without being able to break through, the latest effort a second at this track over 820m. Has a decent record at this trip with four minor placings from five tries and is expected to run well. CLEE (4) saluted two runs ago then turned in a nice run last time out when third over 820m at this track. In contention this time.
