A solid tempo is anticipated with War Anthem and Cheat Major kicking up to hold out the next wave. WIN GLADNESS (12) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when 2.5 lengths away in third over 2000m at this track when he was prominent throughout. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. WAR ANTHEM (8) went to the paddock after scoring at his last appearance four months ago over 1500m at this track. Rates highly and is likely to be prominent. MIRAIE HOSHO (5) turned in a fine effort to win by half a length at today's course and distance last time out to build on a solid first-up result. Nicely placed to take this out. ANDARA CRYSTAL (9) ran a better race last start, finishing 4 lengths away in fourth over 2000m at this track. Better than recent efforts suggest.
