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

Strong tempo assured from Skyray and Orion Heart leading the charge. SKYRAY (3) is a talented type yet to taste defeat after three runs, the latest over 1400m at this track. Won at the distance last time and rates a top chance again. PARTIDA (12) finished ninth two runs back at Nakayama Dirt then improved last time out to score by one length as favourite over 1500m at this track. Tackling a deeper field this time but he is up to the task. SHINING WAY (4) finished out of the money when fifth in a 1400m contest at this track two weeks ago. Meeting a deeper field this time but she cannot be taken lightly. ORION HEART (7) is having her first run since October 17. Has a very good fresh record, scoring two times including one over 1700m at this track at the start of last prep. Can make her presence felt while fresh.
