King Cape, Battle Ax and Lux Dream can set the pace. BATTLE AX (9) tried to lead throughout and wasn't far away on debut last start over 1400m at Kyoto Dirt, finishing second and beaten 5 lengths. Has ability and looks sure to measure up. KANATA KONATA (15) is a promising type who was in the placings on debut before a fourth last time over 1800m at Niigata Dirt. Has upside and should feature in the finish. G T PICASSO (7) has been in the betting at both starts but hasn't managed to break through. Most recently finished seventh over 1800m at Kyoto Dirt, beaten 8 lengths. Worth considering. LUX DREAM (12) did a fair job on debut last time out, finishing 4.5 lengths from the winner in fifth over 1600m at Tokyo Dirt. Among the chances.
