Strong tempo to be established by King's Breath, Oeuf D'oeuf and Arlecchino. ARLECCHINO (18) resumes. Didn't make an impact at his only run last prep on 22/03/2025, finishing ninth and beaten 12 lengths over 1600m at Nakayama. Should settle just off the speed despite the draw. Best form puts him right in this. KING'S BREATH (17) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1400m at Tokyo, beaten 4 lengths after being prominent at the turn. Nicely placed to play a pivotal role. GOLD SHEEN (16) is yet to find the frame in two runs since resuming from a spell, the latest when fourth over 1600m at Tokyo after he settled well back. Will strip fitter and looks the main danger. LOVELY GIRL (2) will strip fitter for this after running below expectations first-up at this track, finishing sixth and beaten 3 lengths over 1400m. Should be competitive in this suitable race.
