Reasonable tempo with Buber probably leading but a few others should keep her honest. PRINCESS DIA (1) was sent out at $21.90 last time but ran above expectations and won over 1600m at this track. Should feature in the finish again. DIAMOND FUJI (10) has missed the frame at his last couple of outings, the latest when a disappointing 14th over 1200m at Nakayama. Finds an easier assignment and is a winning hope. WHITE TURF (12) was out of the money when resuming two runs back then again missed the frame last start when she got a long way back over 1400m at this track, beaten 10 lengths into seventh. This looks a sterner test than last time but on her best form she is capable of a big performance. KINGDOM WINNER (3) was ridden quietly from a good draw last start before closing nicely to get up for sixth over 1400m at this track. Can play a role in the finish.
