Genuine tempo with the speedy Gold Talisman leading the way. HANA HIRAKU (3) did a great job to score by 2 lengths over this course and distance last start to maintain her good form of late. Likely to be there at the finish again. KOTOBUKI ACE (1) finished out of the money two starts back then was beaten 3.5 lengths when fifth in a 1200m contest at this track three-and-a-half weeks ago. Has his share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. GOLD TALISMAN (5) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish 1.75 lengths away in third over 1200m at this track. Should be prominent again from the low draw. Looks well placed so expect another big run. FLORAL ROMANCE (9) was responsible for a better run last start, beaten 3 lengths into fourth over 1200m at this track. Suitably placed so can turn things around.
