Strong pace from Scarlet Honey and Lien Solide matching motors with Accordance close at hand. PURPLE PARAISO (6) resumes from a spell of six months. Could only manage to finish seventh at the latest run over 1400m at this track. Set to return in style. ACCORDANCE (5) has been racing well without winning. Last start finished second, beaten 0.8 lengths, over 1400m at this track. Has a fair record at this trip and is among the leading chances. LIEN SOLIDE (3) took advantage of the good draw when resuming from a spell last start and led for much of the way before finishing second, beaten half a length, over 1400m at this track. Among the main hopes. SCARLET HONEY (2) last raced on April 8 when fourth at this track over 1400m. Likely improver.
