Genuine pace with Bold Hawk taking up the running ahead of A Shin Kosonte and Special Talk. HIFUMI BANDAM (3) had a bit on his rivals last time with an impressive 3 lengths win over 1600m at this track. Has been in strong form this campaign, registering five wins. Major player. CASH BLITZ (5) ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 1900m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Has the talent to take this out. BOLD HAWK (6) has strung together a couple of wins at this track, the latest on March 19 over 1600m when he scored by 2 lengths. Winning rider Myojo Haru Dai retains the mount. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he is good enough to play a major role. SPECIAL TALK (2) travelled in a rearwards position and turned in a sub-par run last time out over 1400m at this track after a nice win the start prior. Can bounce back.
