Strong early tempo with Saffron Hero and Pick Up Line leading the way. AGRADO (2) has enjoyed a let-up of eight weeks since he won when resuming over 1200m at Nakayama Dirt, scoring by 1.5 lengths. Building a nice record and is in the right race to add to it. MONDE PLUME (3) finished third at this track and distance at his last appearance 12 weeks ago. Rates highly and is likely to be prominent. GOLDEN OSCAR (15) is a strong fresh performer back after a break of ten weeks and looking to emulate his win at this track to kick off the last campaign. Capable of playing a major role. SAFFRON HERO (11) was unplaced two runs back when fresh from a spell then again missed the frame last start over 1400m at Hanshin Dirt, beaten 2.75 lengths into fifth. No surprise to see him in the mix.
