Shonan Amber and Aramusha Pyrrhus to battle for the leading role. Only four realistic hopes. BASSE TERRE (8) was high in the market on debut last time out and ran well but found one better over 1800m at Tokyo. Likely improver who is expected to be too strong for this field. KAFUJI EMMENTAL (15) finished second, beaten a nose, when resuming from a spell last start over 1800m at this track after he was in contention on the bend. Fitter for that outing and can feature in the finish. ARAMUSHA PYRRHUS (9) went forward over 2000m at this track on debut last start and give plenty under pressure but found a couple better. Will be in this for a long way. RIN (10) debuted two months ago and was well supported when he finished seventh over 2000m at Kyoto, beaten 3 lengths. Likely improver who can feature in the finish.
