Off the low draw Wilson should lead at a genuine tempo. WILSON (2) resumed from a spell last start with a sound third over 1800m at Hanshin after racing up near the speed all the way. Lightly raced colt with a lot more to offer. Hard to beat in this modest race. ROSA RUGOSA (5) is back after a break of 12 weeks. At the last run before the layoff he finished fourth over 2400m at Hanshin. No surprise if he was able to give the top pick a scare. RED PALLADIUM (1) returned from a spell three weeks ago when he was beaten 4.5 lengths into seventh over 1600m at this track. Fitter this time. Capable of a top three finish. ROSSA COMETA (12) is a three-start maiden who resumed from a spell last start and was beaten 6 lengths when sixth over 1800m at this track. Plenty of improvement to come.
