Jun Victoire, Alrischa and Major Quality to vie for early honours at a solid tempo. SPIN DIEGOAL (12) went to the paddock after scoring at his last appearance ten weeks ago over 2000m at this track. Has a strong first-up record, scoring on two occasions from three runs. Rates highly and makes plenty of appeal. RUTONWAJI (2) was ridden positively and led throughout to score over 2000m at this track last time. Drawn for a good run on the speed and is a top chance. NISHINO AYAKAZE (7) went to the lead from the low draw last time out and was still there on straightening, eventually finishing second over 2000m at this track. Will give a bold sight again. SAYONO GHOSTED (1) went to the paddock after scoring at his last appearance six months ago over 2000m at this track. Definite top-three chance.
