Strong tempo with Shanghai Night, Ho O Chocolat and Garaku leading the charge. GARAKU (9) comes here off a break of 12 weeks. Consistent type and has placed 2/2 fresh. Rates highly and should take some beating. SILFLAY (3) finished third at this track and distance at her last appearance nine weeks ago. Hasn't scored when fresh from a break but generally races well with three minor placings. Rates highly and is likely to be prominent. HO O CHOCOLAT (15) is back from a spell of three-and-a-half months. Closed last prep with a eighth, beaten 5.5 lengths, over 1400m at Chukyo Dirt. Big run is on the cards. CHELSEA (2) ran below expectations last time at this track, finishing 13th and beaten 6 lengths. Suitably placed so expecting a better run this time.
