Expecting Imagine Lennon to take up the lead at a genuine tempo. IMAGINE LENNON (8) has strung together a couple of wins at this track, the latest on June 19 over 1400m when he scored by 2.5 lengths. Winning rider Tomohiro Yoshimura retains the mount. Facing a tougher assignment but he is worth serious consideration. TAGANO DIOSA (5) has filled a minor placing at both runs this time in work, working home in good style at the most recent outing to finish second over 1700m at this track. Good chance to break through. THE TIMES (10) scored last start at this track to make it two wins and two placings from four starts this campaign. Do not underestimate. M ZAK DREAM (12) showed good speed here last time over 1870m and led into the straight before tiring to finish fifth. Among the chances.
