Solid tempo anticipated with Kumasan Arigato taking charge. MIRACULUM (6) improved last time out, finishing 3.5 lengths from the winner in third at the end of 1400m at this track. Looks well placed so expect another big run. KUMASAN ARIGATO (7) showed good speed and led for much of the way before being claimed in the straight and fading to finish fourth, beaten 5 lengths, over 1400m here last time. Expected to measure up again. SPECULATOR (8) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he got a long way back over 1400m at this track, beaten 16 lengths into ninth. Finds a nice race and can feature in the finish. WE STINGER (2) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1400m at this track, beaten 21 lengths. Fitter so expect a better run this time.
