Solid tempo with Iron Overcome possessing enough dash to find the front. IRON OVERCOME (9) is back after a break of four months. At the last run before the layoff she finished fourth over 1230m at this track. Has ability and sure to prove tough to beat. HIRONO EXCALIBUR (7) was ridden quietly then made some inroads and finished eighth last time out over 800m at Himeji three weeks ago. Steps up in distance today. Solid chance. SMALT (3) ran fourth at his latest appearance over 1400m at Himeji, clocking in 2 lengths from the winner. Has a good record at this journey and is a key contender. CAVALIER QUEST (5) produced another moderate effort last start when ninth over 1400m at Himeji. Top-three prospect.
