From the outside gate Lux Soleil can cross and take up the running. LUX SOLEIL (12) showed the way from barrier rise to score by 2.5 lengths last start over this course and distance. Top strike rate at the journey with two wins and two placings from four starts and should be in the finish. FOREWIND (10) turned in a handy position before finishing second last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 1.5 lengths. Hijikata Sota is a key engagement. In a suitable race and can figure in the finish. LAMBEAU LEAP (8) finished just a neck from the winner in second last start over 1400m at this track after racing handy. Nicely placed to feature in the finish. PURE CHEMISTRY (1) lightly raced galloper who has been well held at both runs this prep. Could only manage 11th last start over 1230m at this track. Strips fitter and looks one of the better hopes in the race.
