Genuine tempo with the speedy Teikei Holomua leading the way. SAKURA TOP MOON (4) turned in a fine effort to win by 0.8 lengths at this course and distance last start in a much improved run. It doesn't get any easier but on his best form he is capable of testing his rivals. SCHLEIFE (9) has progressed nicely in her last couple of runs. Finished third at this track two starts back then landed the prize by a neck last time out over 1400m at this track. Stepping up a level this time but on current form she is good enough to take this out. TEIKEI HOLOMUA (2) impressed when successful as favourite on debut over 1400m at this track two-and-a-half weeks ago. Has upside and is well placed to feature again. ECORO ATHENA (1) has been in the placings at her last two starts, finishing third last time over 1400m at this track. Hard to leave out.
