KING SAGA (2) returned from a spell last start and was on debut over the jumps. Did a good job on that occasion and scored by 3 lengths in a maiden steeplechase (3000m) at Tokyo. Sure to run well again. GEOFRONT (3) was safely held two back but turned form around last time with a win in a steeplechase (3100m) at Tokyo. No reason he cannot get the job done again. WITH YOUR DREAM (11) returns from a 104-day spell. Made just the one appearance when last in work and was successful in a maiden steeplechase (2880m) at Nakayama, scoring by 3.5 lengths. This looks a nice race to kick off. T M MAGIC (5) returns from a 70-day spell. Concluded the last campaign finishing sixth in a steeplechase (3170m) at Kyoto, beaten 16 lengths. Already a winner over the obstacles. Sure to acquit himself well.
