Strong pace with Suns, Eurosita Beat and Welwitschia pushing forward, closely attended by Brave Ruler and Hanachirusato. EUROSITA BEAT (9) was leading on the turn and fought on to finish second over 1500m at this track at his latest appearance. Form here at this journey is very good. Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. Expecting a bold showing. SUNS (10) continued the great form last start, scoring by 3 lengths at this track over today's trip. Well placed to keep the ball rolling. BEST FIELD (8) raced on the pace over 1400m at this track last time and went on to win by a neck. Yuki Yamanaka who has three wins when partnering stays on. Capable of running a bold race. WELWITSCHIA (4) turned in a modest performance when third last time out over 1400m at this track, beaten 4 lengths, after a win at this track at the previous outing. In the mix.
