Plenty of speed from Mambo Rumba and Ralph Tesoro. RALPH TESORO (2) finished last campaign with a couple of minor placings, the latest over 1800m at Nakayama Dirt eight months ago. Has the pace and the right draw to find a good early position. Will play a major role. TRIPLETE (11) failed to figure again last time over 1600m at Hanshin, beaten 4 lengths into seventh. Backmarker who gets home hard. Will prove tough to beat. MAMBO RUMBA (10) is back from a break of four months. Raced below par at his only appearance last prep when fifth over 1800m at Nakayama Dirt. Has a high cruising speed. Sure to be competitive. MEINER EARTH (3) missed the placings two runs back then didn't do any better last start when 6 lengths away in sixth over 1600m at Tokyo Dirt. Has his share of talent and is a top-three prospect.
