|---|---|---|---|---|

Certain to be a strong tempo with Acqua Virile, Hurry Flag and Special Holiday leading the charge. ACQUA VIRILE (7) was an emphatic winner last time over 1400m at this track with today's rider Manato Hida engaged. Has an impeccable record at this course, winning at all six visits. Likely to feature. WITH PRIDE (9) saluted at this track two runs ago. Decent effort last time out when in the firing line on the turn before finishing second over 1400m at this track, beaten half a length. Has a solid record at this course and distance, including a win and two minor placings. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time. ANILA (4) scored at her most recent appearance, getting home by 4 lengths over 1400m at this track. That continued the solid form this campaign, with two wins and two minor placings from five runs. Among the leading players again. SPECIAL HOLIDAY (5) registered a strong win two runs ago then turned in a nice run last time out when second over 1400m at this track, beaten 1.3 lengths. In the mix on the back of that.
