Pace looks strong with Margot Lick pressing on from an outside draw, joining Steel Vogue. GOLD PLAYER (5) closed last prep with a disappointing fifth over 1800m at Nakayama Dirt. Back for a new campaign with a change of rider. Should settle handy in the run. Will play a major role. STEEL VOGUE (4) has switched yards since finishing third four weeks ago over 1300m at Tokyo Dirt. One of the genuine hopes in the race. WEST KENSINGTON (13) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when 5 lengths away in third over 1600m at Tokyo Dirt when he was always up in the leading division. Likely improver with strong prospects. MARGOT LICK (14) is back after a break of seven months. At the last run before the layoff he finished fifth over 1600m at Tokyo Dirt. Rates highly on best form and a bright return wouldn't surprise.
