Good early pressure with Trishula or Strong Current likely to take up the running. HAKUAI RICHARD (3) was sent out favourite last time and scored by 4 lengths at this track. Has five wins here. Change of rider to Yamato Ishikawa who has four wins when aboard. Sure to run well. TRISHULA (2) finished 2.25 lengths back in third over 1400m at this track last time out after a gutsy win two runs back. Has a solid record at this circuit. Right in this. TAGANO HINATA (6) really dug deep to get the prize by a neck three runs back at this track before filling a minor placing at her last two starts. Winning rider Jun Tanaka sticks. Has claims on her best figures. STRONG CURRENT (5) was well in commission last time but ran below expectations when fourth and beaten 5.5 lengths over 1400m at this track. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Should give backers a sight.
