|---|---|---|---|---|

Strong tempo with God Treasure, Arcelia and Reiwa Epoch going forward ahead of Fiore and Balletcore. B B PRIMERO (4) remains a maiden after nine runs. Had plenty of admirers last time and finishing a close second over 1500m at this track. Looks close to breaking through. BURNING WIND (1) comes here off a break of three months. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1500m at this track. Looks a winning chance. GOD TREASURE (7) went to the lead from the low draw last time out and was still there on straightening, eventually finishing second over 1500m at this track. Bold showing expected. BALLETCORE (8) finished third last start over 1500m at this track, beaten 3.5 lengths. Should be cherry-ripe. Likely improver with solid prospects.
