Strong tempo with Light Curtain, Antilia and Nori Nori Socks going forward ahead of Livre Man and Taisei Ganar. NORI NORI SOCKS (5) has switched yards since finishing eighth five-and-a-half weeks ago over 1200m at Kokura. Sure to take beating. MY BELIEVE (1) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1200m at this track. Fitter and sure to run well. ANTILIA (4) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a fourth over 1200m at this track after being prominent at the corner. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot return to winning ways. LIVRE MAN (3) is finding the breakthrough elusive but looks best of the rest.
