|---|---|---|---|---|

Genuine tempo with Proofreader leading the way. PROOFREADER (1) won at this track and distance at his last outing five months ago. Has found the right race. NOBLE CREED (12) sat on the pace and stuck on well to score at this track and trip when first-up from a spell last start. It doesn't get any easier but on his best form he is capable of another big performance. FIRE WHIP (8) improved last start but found one better over 1400m at Urawa, beaten only 1.5 lengths. Steps up a level but he is good enough to figure in the finish. AL HAYL FORT (2) next best.
